Multicast Page Zones
The 8190 SIP Classroom Speaker supports nine "basic" multicast zones. These zones are
defined by the multicast IP addresses.
Somewhat arbitrarily, these zones are defined below but may be used in other ways. The
important consideration is that there is a priority hierarchy – streaming activity on a zone
higher on the list, will be treated as a higher priority than a zone lower on the list – with
music being the lowest priority.
1. Priority
2. All Call
3. Zone 1
4. Zone 2
5. Zone 3
6. Zone 4
7. Zone 5
8. Zone 6
9. Music
"Expanded" zones can also be enabled, in the Basic Settings > Multicast tab, allowing
up to 50 zones in total. These have the same behaviors as the basic zones, but are
hidden by default to simplify the interface.
Basic Settings Tab – Multicast (Slave Settings)
Multicast Mode (Slave Selected)
If Slave is enabled the 8190 will activate when receiving a multicast message. Will mimic
audio stream, but use local volume settings ('Page Speaker Volume' in Basic Settings >
Features).
Number of Zones
Select 'basic' zones if configuring nine or fewer multicast zones or 'expanded' to configure
up to 50 zones. The expanded zones have the same behavior as the basic Slave zones,
but are hidden by default to simplify the interface.
Multicast Type - Regular
Select 'Regular (RTP)' if solely multicasting to Algo SIP endpoint(s) and/or multicast
enabled phone(s) that use RTP audio packets.
Multicast Type – Polycom Group Paging/Push-to-Talk
The 8190 may receive multicast paging compatible with Polycom "on premise group
paging" protocol.
To configure the 8190 as a slave to play Polycom page announcements, select "Group
Page" or "Push-to-Talk". Then enter the Polycom Zone (IP Address and Port) that
matches the configuration of the Polycom phones and Channels. The "Default Channel" is
the target group in a Polycom paging environment.
