Standalone Operation Configuration Settings
Configuring this device consists of specifying one or more of the following:
• The SIP server addresses, ports, and SIP extensions at which to register for incoming
SIP pages and announcements.
• The output multicast (Audio Cast) addresses (and ports) to which the device will send
one or more digitized line input signals.
• The input multicast addresses (and ports) from which the device will receive digital
signals, which will then be converted to analog and played to one or more line out
-
puts.
To use this device to make announcements or SIP calls, connect a microphone to one of
the Line Input ports (possibly through a preamp device, which would convert the mic-
level signal to a line-level signal). For the
Multicast Addresses (Audio Cast)
entry whose
channel matches the line input port, s
pecify a codec, cut level, and multicast address and
port to which the signal will be streamed. That stream can be consumed by one or more
devices to receive announcements or SIP calls.
To receive announcements or SIP calls, configure one or more
Multicast Addresses
entries with the multicast addresses and ports from which to receive the input streams.
Specify a codec, cut level, and output channel (i.e., Line Output port) on which to play the
received (and decoded) audio signal.
