Using as VoIP Speaker Phone

The main usage of the VoIP Speaker Phone is, as the name says, to act as a VoIP phone.
It can, however, be used as a generic sound card, too. Frequency response for the board
when used with earphones is up to 14.5 kHz with good audio fidelity.

Setup

1. Connect the USB cable. If the unit doesn't power up automatically, push the
"Power" button.
2. The unit will turn into a USB audio device, called "VLSI VS1000B+ADC". If you
are using Microsoft Windows, you should see a message telling you that new USB
Audio and USB Human Interface Devices have been inserted. You might also hear
a startup sound.

(a) Microsoft Windows: Open "Control Panel", and select "Sounds and Audio
(b) Mac: You can set "VLSI VS1000B+ADC" as the default audio device using
(c) Linux: Select "VLSI VS1000B+ADC" as your input and output device in
4. To check whether you have an audio connection to the board, start any sound
playing application, like Windows Media Player or Audacity, and play any audio
file that the media player is capable of playing. If you can hear sound from the
speaker (or earphones, if you have earphones connected), everything has gone well.
If sound is distorted or doesn't play, there is a problem.
5. When you have sound, check to see that there isn't distortion on the speaker. If
the speaker clips, echo cancellation will not be as effective as it would otherwise be.
So place the speaker in a way that it is not resonating with furniture or the board,
and lower system volume if needed.
6. You are now ready to make a test call. With Skype, the best address for your test
call is Skype's own test service echo123.
