Sip Paging: Multiple Speakers (Using Individual Sip Extensions); Sip Activated Notification Alerts; Background Music Streaming - Algo 8180 User Manual

To enable multicast monitoring in the other speakers, go to the web interface for each
speaker and again navigate to the Basic Settings > Multicast tab. This time though,
choose multicast mode 'Slave/Receiver' There is no need to select a zone as the
speaker will automatically monitor the 'All Call' zone IP address.
The page pre-announce tone is generated from the Master. The following options are
valid for each multicast Slave speaker:
Increase or Decrease Speaker Volume
•
Enable Ambient Noise Monitoring (speaker volume adapts to background noise)
•
Talkback can only be used for the SIP registered Master speaker. When paging with
talkback enabled, only the area near the Master speaker is covered for talkback. The
microphones in the multicast Slave speakers are disabled except for ambient noise
monitoring.
Note: See "Basic Setting Tab – Multicast" section bellow for more configuration
options and instructions.

SIP Paging: Multiple Speakers (Using Individual SIP extensions)

In some cases, it may be desirable for every speaker to have a SIP extension. Multicast
may still be used to page multiple speakers but each speaker can also be called
individually or generate a call when appropriately configured.
A speaker configured as a SIP Multicast Slave will give its highest priority to the 'Priority
Call' zone. Other than the 'Priority Call' zone, a page using its SIP extension, has priority
over all other multicast zones.
Communication Servers with the capability of dialing many SIP extensions simultaneously
for paging may be able to create zones by calling "page groups" and also page telephone
speakers in conjunction with overhead speakers.

SIP Activated Notification Alerts

In addition to voice paging, the 8180 SIP Audio Alerter (G2) can play audio files for
emergency, safety, and security announcements, customer service, shift changes, etc.
Audio WAV files can be stored in speaker memory and played over the speaker in
response to an event such as a ring or relay input, and also multicast to other Algo SIP
endpoints on the network. See Additional Features > Emergency Alerts and Additional
Features > Input/Output for more details.

Background Music Streaming

The 8301 Paging Adapter & Scheduler (sold separately), set as a Multicast master, can
stream background music to other Algo slave devices on the network from a music source
connected to the 8301's AUX Input.
