Intercom Server Configuration Configuration software CCT 800

Installation of CCT 800

Installation on a PC
The “Intercom Server Software Package” is required for installation. This package can be downloaded
from the cLibrary at clibrary-online.commend.com.

GOOD TO KNOW: Correct display of character sets


CCT 800 displays the character sets of the respective system locale configured in Windows. To ensure
proper display of Cyrillic or Hebrew character sets in CCT 800, the respective system locale must be selected
in the computer's operating system.
To change the system locale in Windows:
 Open the control panel,
 click on Region 1),
 click on the tab Administrative,
 click on Change system locale and select the desired region.
 Click on OK to save the change.
 Restart your computer.
1) To access the Region settings in the Windows Control Panel, select either ”Large icons” or ”Small

icons” under the ”View by” option.

System requirements
RAM 1 GB
Processor (x86-64 comp.) min. 2 GHz
Hard disk space 500 MB
.NET Framework 4.7.2
Windows 10 (64 Bit)
Windows 11 (64 Bit)
Operating system Windows Server 2016 (64 Bit)
Windows Server 2019 (64 Bit)
Windows Server 2022 (64 Bit)

 Keyboard and mouse


 Screen with resolution of min. 1280 x 1024 pixels
 Network interface or serial interface

NOTE: Internet access required


As of version 11.1, the installer for CCT 800 requires internet access to download and install
additional software libraries.

Installer dialogue
After launching the installation package and verifying the software requirements, the installer dialogue
shows a list of program components that are already installed, updateable, or not yet installed. If this
is an existing installation, the version numbers of already installed components are indicated by a blue
info symbol on the right, while the version numbers of the components that are included in the
installation package are displayed below their names on the left. Version numbers follow a
<major>.<minor>.<build> structure, such as 11.1.1000.

3.1/0923 25
Configuration software CCT 800 Intercom Server Configuration

The installation package includes the following components:


 Central Configuration Tool CCT 800
 IPStationConfig
 ComLOG
 VirtuoBRO
 Npcap packet capture and analysis tool
Installation process

The list of software components is displayed when the installation package is launched. Each compo-
nent can be selected or deselected individually for installation. Selecting CCT 800 or IPStationConfig
for an initial installation automatically includes Npcap if it is not already installed. If CCT 800 or IPSta-
tionConfig are subsequently deselected, Npcap remains selected but it can still be deselected separate-
ly.
When updating to a newer version from an existing installation, an “Update” checkbox, or in the case
of Npcap, a “Download and update” checkbox is displayed next to the green “Installed” checkmark
symbol indicating that an update for the component is available. After selecting the desired
components, proceed with the installation.

GOOD TO KNOW:
The installer is designed to quickly and easily install all required components. To uninstall, use the
standard Windows uninstall process. The installer package only updates or installs software compo-
nents within the same release. For example, you can update version 13.0 to a higher build number,
but it's not possible to update from version 13.0 directly to 13.1 using the same installer package. Each
major version has a separate installer package, allowing technicians to have multiple versions of the
software components on their computer for different scenarios.

26 3.1/0923
Intercom Server Configuration Configuration software CCT 800

If the installation was successful, a message indicating that all operations were successful (left) is
shown. If a component could not be installed, a message indicating that the setup has failed is shown
(right). It is recommended that you save the log files in case you need to contact Commend Technical
Support but the following measures usually remedy any installation problems:
 Restart your computer and repeat the installation process.
 Check your Internet connection.
 Check that Windows is up-to-date and install any necessary updates.

After a successful installation the installer indicates that all components are installed and up-to-date. A
restart may be required.

3.1/0923 27
Configuration software CCT 800 Intercom Server Configuration

GOOD TO KNOW: WinPcap (valid for CCT 800 versions before 11.1) or Npcap
The requirements for the use of the WinPcap or Npcap program libraries are as follows:
The requirements for the use of the WinPcap or Npcap program libraries are as follows:
 CCT 800 to version 8.1: WinPcap (min. 4.x.x)
 CCT 800 from version 9.0: WinPcap (min. 4.x.x) or Npcap (min. 0.995)
 CCT 800 from version 11.0: WinPcap (min. 4.1.3) or Npcap (min. 1.5). Npcap is recommended and can
be downloaded during the installation process.
For CCT 800 to work correctly, make sure that only one of the two program libraries is installed on
the computer. This can easily be checked using the “Apps & features” application of the operating
system.

NOTE: WinPcap API-compatible Mode


When installing Npcap, the option Install WinPcap API-compatible Mode is selected by default.

The master data of VirtuoSIS with the serial number <serial number> is not valid:
 If available, restore a valid and recent backup using VirtuoBRO.
 If no valid and recent backup is available, reset the system or deploy a new virtual machine.
In particular, this can be caused by a misconfiguration of the networking between the instances when the data
was received. These checks are performed when sending, receiving and opening a CCTX file.

Configuration errors resulting in the combination of card IP address + port number + terminal IP address or
MAC address on an IP card will be displayed as a collision.

ATTENTION:
 Each Intercom Server uses the same hexadecimal addresses for inputs, outputs and interfaces. Ad-
dresses ending with “F1” to “FE” will not be considered for the check of collisions. In order to use
these inputs, outputs and interfaces across a network, an up to 8-digit number has to be entered man-
ually!
 If virtual input / output cards are used in slot 15 of an Intercom Server IS300, GE300 or the Plug-In
Server G8-IP32 (e.g. cards IS3-16E, IS3-16A or IS3-8E8A cards in the IS300), call numbers ending with
**F1 to **FE must not be assigned to the inputs or outputs of these cards. Only characters 0-9 and T
are valid.
 Valid entries can be displayed as existing collisions if several Intercom Servers with different block
prefix are selected for the checking!

Protect configuration with password


For Intercom Server, a password can be assigned to prevent unwanted changes to the Intercom Server
configuration. This password is requested before sending and receiving the configuration, initialising
the Intercom Server, performing a selective reboot, and updating the software.

Configuration CCT 800


To define a password for the Intercom Server, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to: Menu Intercom Server > Change Password

from version 10.0 or higher. From VirtuoSIS 10.0 it is no longer possible to assign an individual
password to each instance.
 The password must be at least 12 and a maximum of 64 characters long.
 Passwords assigned up until VirtuoSIS version 9.1 remain unchanged, but in case a new password
is assigned after an upgrade to VirtuoSIS 10.0, you need to obey to the new password rules.

Configuration sequence in CCT 800 Intercom Server Configuration

Configuration sequence in CCT 800


In the following, you will find a step-by-step setup guide to configure the stations, cards and Intercom
Server in CCT 800:
1. Establishing a connection between Intercom Server and CCT 800 – see page 74
2. Receiving the configuration of Intercom Server – see page 80. All installed cards, software versions
and the CCT 800 configuration saved in the Intercom Server are displayed automatically in CCT 800.
 If no configuration is saved in the Intercom Server, an Intercom Server offline configuration can
be created. In order to create an offline configuration, no configuration to the Intercom Server is
required. This configuration can be sent to the Intercom Servers within the connected network at
a later time. Further information can be found on page 88.
3. Updating the Intercom Server, cards and station firmware – see page 91
4. Licencing of the cards and Intercom Server – see page 96
5. Configuration of IP, SIP and hybrid stations in IPStationConfig and CCT 800 – see page 132
6. Configuration of the Intercom Server in CCT 800:
 Configuration of Intercom functions – see page 156
 Configuration of SIP functions – see page 463
7. Sending the configuration to the Intercom Server – see page 82

NOTE: Save the latest configuration file on the computer


It is recommend to save the CCT 800 file of the latest version of the configuration on the computer.

8. Warmstart of all Intercom Servers with configuration changes in order to apply the changes – see
page 86
  With PRO 800 5.1 or higher, the configuration can be changed without a restart for certain
Intercom subscriber functions (i.e. the configuration must be sent to the Intercom Server, but no
warmstart is required). An overview of all Intercom subscriber functions without restart can be
found on page 532.

Distributing Intercom Server configurations


Intercom Server configurations can be distributed to any number of VirtuoSIS Intercom Servers. The
Intercom Server on which the configuration is created does not have to run on the same virtualisation
or hardware platform as the target servers. For further information on supported virtualisation and
hardware platforms, see the product manual “VirtuoSIS Setup Guide”.

ATTENTION:
 As usual when making major configuration changes to the system, please always consider creat-
ing a backup.
 Do not interrupt the power supply or the network connection during the process.

Requirements
Conditions for successful completion of the distribution process:
 The Intercom Server on which the configuration is created as well as the target server have a base
licence. For further information, see page 118.
 The Intercom Server on which the configuration is created has the same number of instances and
the same server IDs as the target server. For further information, see page 130.
 When sending, it is mandatory that all instances of the VirtuoSIS Master are selected to make sure
that the serial number is successfully adapted.

72 3.1/0923
Intercom Server Configuration Configuration sequence in CCT 800

 When sending the configuration, all instances of the VirtuoSIS master must be online

ATTENTION:
If these requirements are not met, this may lead to unexpected behaviour due to an invalid configu-
ration.

Configuration CCT 800


 Licence and configure the Intercom Server on which the configuration is created on one of the sup-
ported virtualisation and hardware platforms.
 Receive the final configuration of all VirtuoSIS instances with CCT 800 and save it as a configuration
file (CCTX file).
 Licence and configure the Intercom Server on which the configuration is applied on one of the sup-
ported virtualisation and hardware platforms with the same number of instances and the same serv-
er IDs.
 Go to: Project > Intercom Server > Cards.
 Make a note of the field Serial Number.
 Open the configuration file (CCTX file) with CCT 800.
 Go to: Project > Intercom Server > Cards.
 Double-click the field Serial Number and enter the previously noted serial number of the target serv-
er for each instance. Only valid serial numbers are accepted. If a VirtuoSIS Master has more than one
instance, the new serial number is assigned to all of them automatically.
 Go to: Menu Intercom Server > Send.
 Select all instances of the target server and send the configuration.

NOTES:
 If the serial number of the configuration (CCTX file) does not match that of the VirtuoSIS Intercom
Server it is sent to, a dialogue appears. It offers to adopt the serial number of all instances of the
Intercom Server.
 This dialogue appears individually for each mismatching serial number and it must always be con-
firmed for the sending process to be carried out.
 If an attempt is made to send the configuration to an Intercom Server without a basic licence (i.e.
with serial number "00000000"), the sending process is aborted.
 The serial number is only checked for VirtuoSIS Intercom Servers, but not for Intercom Servers
such as GE 300 or GE 800.

Troubleshooting faulty configuration of the master data of


VirtuoSIS
The following provides guidance on troubleshooting and resolving configuration errors related to the
master data of VirtuoSIS. Two types of messages, namely “Information” and “Error,” are used. When
an “Information” message is displayed (as shown in the first three messages below), step-by-step
instructions to correct the configuration issue are provided in the message. However, it is still possible
to send the configuration data back to VirtuoSIS without following these instructions.
The situation is different when an “Error” message is displayed (as shown in the last two messages).
Here, it is essential to address the error before sending the configuration data back to VirtuoSIS.

The background colour of the row in the Card Area and the Server Area indicates the state of the
entry:
 Light blue: The data is up to date and the Intercom Server has a base licence.
 Orange: The data is up to date and the Intercom Server does not have a base licence. This is also
indicated by the serial number “00000000-001”. Assigning a base licence is a precondition for fur-
ther licensing steps. For further information about allocating a base licence, see page 118.
 Grey: The data may not be up to date, since the licence data could not be retrieved from the server.
Possible causes:
 The licence synchronisation requires a restart of the Intercom Server. This may take a few min-
utes.
 If the Intercom Server is not reachable via the currently selected network connection, the net-
work connection must be changed..
Once the Intercom Server becomes available, the background colour changes from grey to light
blue after several seconds. This applies regardless of whether the configuration was received
from the Intercom Server or a CCTX file was opened.

Licence standardisation for SIP-C & IP licences


Feature VirtuoSIS 13.2 – Licence standardisation for SIP-C & IP licences
VirtuoSIS Licence compatibility between IoIP and SIP-C terminals is available by upgrading the Intercom
LICENCE L-SIS-13
system to VirtuoSIS 13.2 and updating CCT 800 to version 13.2.

Replacing current IoIP devices with Symphony devices previously required purchasing separate SIP-C
licences. Now, by upgrading the Intercom system to VirtuoSIS 13.2 and updating CCT 800 to version
13.2, SIS-IP licences can be used for SIP-C cards and SIP-C licences can be used for IP cards. For
example, switching from a SIS-IP-8 card to a SIS-SIP-C card no longer requires the purchase of new
licences.
Maintaining the same feature levels for Symphony devices and licensed IoIP devices is now possible,
allowing for consistent feature levels and the use of the same licensed features across both platforms.

NOTE: Upgrade licence required for SIP-C feature level A


An upgrade licence is required for SIP-C feature level A. Feature level A does not exist for IoIP. In
this case, the IoIP subscribers remain unlicenced until an upgrade licence is installed.
A SIS-SIP-8A licence can only be used in combination with an upgrade licence UG-8B or UG-1D.

Use cases for licence standardisation


 IoIP licences for SIP subscribers: Replacing IoIP devices with Symphony devices now allows for the
enhancement of the Intercom system with new functionality while keeping the same licences.

 SIP-C licences for IoIP subscribers: Replacing Symphony devices with Commend IoIP devices ena-

Example: The example system configuration below illustrates the licence standardisation for IP and
SIP-C card types.
 Slot 1 has a SIS-IP-8 card and can now use an L-SIS-SIP-8D licence. This licence has 8 feature levels
(“D”). All feature levels can be assigned to the subscriber card on “slot 1” and are shown in the
column “Working as”. Note that the card type is no longer displayed in the “Working as” column.
 Slot 2 has a SIS-SIP-T card and is using an L-SIS-SIPT8D licence. Note that this card type continues
to be displayed with the feature level in the “Working as”column.
 Slot 3 has a SIS-SIP-C card and can now use an L-SIS-IP-8D licence. All feature levels can be assi-
gned to the subscriber card on “slot 3” as shown in the column “Working as”. Here as well, note
that the card type is no longer displayed in the “Working as” column.
 Slot 4 has a SIS-SIP-C card and uses an L-SIS-SIP-8D licence. Note that the card type is no longer

Manual licence assignment for subscriber cards


With CCT 800 5.1 or higher, licences can manually be assigned to any valid and available slot address
of a subscriber card. After the synchronisation, those licences will be assigned to the respective slot
address, which is not possible with the automatic licence assignment.

Requirements
The following Intercom Servers supports the manual licence assignment for subscriber cards:
 VirtuoSIS / IS 300 / IP-32 (generation 2)
The following configuration software is required:
 CCT 800 (min. 5.1)
A licence can be assigned to any slot address, provided that the manual licence assignment is selected
for the respective Intercom Server. Licences can only be assigned to slot addresses of supported card
types (e.g. IP licences to IP or SIP cards). As of VirtuoSIS 13.2 and CCT 800 13.2, manual licence assign-
ment now also allows licences for SIP or IoIP to be assigned to either card type (SIP-C and IP cards).
When assigning a licence to a slot address, the subsequent slot addresses will be occupied with the
respective feature level. See the following example:
Example: The licence “L-SIS-IP-8D” is assigned to the slot address “2/01”. This licence has 8 feature
levels (“D”). All feature levels can be assigned to the subscriber card on slot “2“.
Slot Card type Licence
1 IP-8D ---- ----
2 IP-8D DDDD DDDD
3 IP-8D ---- ----
4 IP-8D ---- ----

If the last slot address of a subscriber card is reserved, the remaining feature levels (if available) will be
assigned to the slot addresses of the subscriber card in the next slot. If there is no valid card in the next
slot for this licence, the remaining feature levels will be rejected. See the following examples:
Example: The licence “L-SIS-IP-8D” is assigned to the slot address “2/03”. This licence has 8 feature
levels (“D”). Only 6 feature levels can be assigned to the subscriber card on slot “2”. It is not possible
to use this licence for the following card type on the slot “03”. The remaining 2 feature levels are
assigned to the following subscriber card on slot “3”. This is possible because there is also an IP
subscriber card configured for slot “3”.
Slot Card type Licence
1 IP-8D ---- ----
2 IP-8D --DD DDDD
3 IP-8D DD-- ----
4 IP-8D ---- ----

Example: The licence “L-SIS-IP-8D” is assigned to the slot address “2/03”. This licence has 8 feature
levels (“D”). Only 6 feature levels can be assigned to the subscriber card on slot “2“. It is not possible
to use this licence for the following card type on the slot “03”. The following card type on slot “3”
(“SIP-C”) is not valid for this licence. The remaining 2 feature levels will be rejected.

If two or more feature levels are assigned to one slot address, the highest feature level will be used.
See the following example:
Example: The license “L-SIS-IP-8D” is assigned to the slot address “2/03”. This license has 8 feature
levels (“D”). Since the first feature level is assigned from address “03”, only 6 subscribers can be
used on slot “2”. The remaining 2 feature levels are assigned to the subsequent subscriber card on
slot “3”. In addition, a license “L-SIS-IP-8C” is assigned to slot address “3/01”. This license has 8 fea-
ture levels (“C”). At the overlap on the slot addresses “3/01” and “3/02” the highest feature level
(“D”) is used.

To assign a licence to a lot address of a subscriber card manually, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to: Menu Intercom Server > Licence administration
2. In the drop-down list Licence assignment, Select the desired licence assignment type of the Intercom
Server. The following options are available:
 Automatic: Subscriber licences will be assigned by feature level in descending order (“D”, “C”,
“B” and “A”).
 Manual: Subscriber licences can be assigned manually. In manual mode, licences for SIP or IoIP
can be used for both card types (SIP-C and IP cards). Further information about the standardisation
of SIP and IoIP licences can be found on page 107.

ATTENTION: Changing the licence assignment


If the licence assignment is changed from “manual” to “automatic” or from “automatic” to “man-
ual”, a dialogue with a warning message appears! By clicking on Yes, licences will possibly be
moved to other slots when changing from “automatic” to “manual”! Therefore, it is recommended

Further information about creating a new VirtuoSIS Instance can be found on page 130.

VirtuoSIS installation
As first installation step, an OVA template has to be deployed on a hypervisor platform such as VMware
vSphere 7.0. The installation on the hypervisor Microsoft Hyper-V requires a ZIP file, which includes a
VHD file and settings files. In this installation procedure, the following settings have to be configured:
 Keyboard and region
 Hostname, IPv4 and IPv6 address, subnet mask and standard-gateway
 SSH port
 NTP server (optional)
 DNS servers (optional)
 Syslog server (optional)
 Intercom Server number
 IP address SIS-GEP card, subnet mask and gateway

NOTES: Further information


 All other IP settings have to be carried out via CCT 800 (see page 114).
 Further configurations are made with cis-ctl on the VirtuoSIS console. A manpage (help page) is
available for this command.
 For further information, see the product manual “VirtuoSIS Setup Guide”.

Connect to VirtuoSIS
As soon as the virtual machine is installed and running, a connection must be established between
VirtuoSIS and the computer, via which the VirtuoSIS will be configured via CCT 800. For further infor-
mation, see the product manual “VirtuoSIS Setup Guide”.

Basic CCT 800 configuration


The next installation step is to carry out the basic CCT 800 configuration for VirtuoSIS. For each Virtu-
oSIS Instance, the IP settings as well as the subscriber configuration have to be carried out. During the
state “Setup”, VirtuoSIS restarts every 15 minutes and the conversation time is limited to 30 seconds.

NOTE: Final activation of VirtuoSIS


To continue with the final activation of VirtuoSIS, at least three Intercom stations have to be con-
figured as key subscribers to VirtuoSIS (key subscribers act as network dongles) – This is not
required for Intercom Server S3 and S6.

GOOD TO KNOW: Offline configuration for VirtuoSIS


With CCT 800 7.0 or higher, an offline configuration is possible for VirtuoSIS (see page 88).

Card configuration
Before licencing and configuring the respective card, the desired card types have to be selected. Per
default, only the SIS-NET card is selected in slot 15. Consider the following rules:
 As of VirtuoSIS 7.0, subscriber, interface, network and SIP cards can be assigned to any slot.

NOTES: Restrictions
 With VirtuoSIS 6.1 or lower, VirtuoSIS subscriber cards have to be assigned starting at slot 1 up to
slot 14 if the automatic licence assignment is selected.
 With VirtuoSIS 6.1 or lower, interface, network and SIP cards have to be assigned starting at slot
14 down to 1 (as long as these slots are not yet used for subscriber cards).

 As of VirtuoSIS 7.0, all slots are empty after initialisation.

NOTES: Restrictions
 With VirtuoSIS 5.0 or lower, a subscriber card is preselected for all slots after initialisation. With
VirtuoSIS 5.1 or higher, a subscriber card is preselected for all slots after initialisation when assign-
ing the licences manually. For the automatic licence assignment, the slots are greyed out.
 With VirtuoSIS 5.0 or lower, unused cards are preselected as subscriber cards.

With this feature, SIS-IF cards can be configured to use the hosts IPv6 configuration.

2. In case of an SIS-IF card, in the field Use VirtuoSIS Host IP Address select:
 -: The card is set to the IPv4 address from the field Card IP Address.
 IPv4: The card is made accessible via the hosts network interface via IP-protocol version 4.
 IPv6: The card is made accessible via the hosts network interface via IP-protocol version 6.
3. If - is selected in the field Use VirtuoSIS Host IP Address for an SIS-IF card and for all other card types
in the field Card IP Address, enter an IPv4 address for the card
4. In the field Subnet mask, enter a subnet mask for the assigned card.

ATTENTION: Assigning IP addresses


 If NET connections should be used, an IP address and a subnet mask have to be configured for the
SIS-NET card. All servers and NET cards must use the same subnet.
 SIS-SIP cards cannot be configured in this IP settings dialogue. SIS-SIP cards automatically use the
IP address of the host (which is shown at VirtuoSIS Master > Network Settings > tab Inter-
faces)!
 SIS-IF cards can either be configured to use the IP address of the host (IPv4/IPv6) or an individual
IPv4-address. In the latter case, the IP of each card needs to be unique. In case the IP address of the
host has changed, it will be updated when receiving the configuration in CCT 800 the next time.
 To check for conflicting settings use the collision checker introduced on page 51.

5. Go to: IP - Settings > tab NET - Firewall

PRO 800

LICENCE SIS-MI

As of VirtuoSIS 8.1 and with the licence L-SIS-PRO8x or newer, several network interfaces can be used
to realize isolated network segments. This will increase availability and security. For an Intercom Server
S3 or S6, two network interfaces are available by default (“br0” and “br1”). Within a virtual environ-
ment (Microsoft Hyper-V or VMware vSphere), it depends on the hypervisor how many network inter-
faces can maximally be used. By default, up to two network interfaces can be used with a hypervisor.
If more than two network interfaces be used (e.g. for further isolated network segments), the licence L-
SIS-MI is required.

Thus, the transmission protocols SIP, IoIP and ICX, which are supported by VirtuoSIS, can be transmit-
ted via isolated network interfaces. Furthermore, IoIP can be split into Intercom stations and network.
For each virtual card at IP Settings, another network interface can be used.

ATTENTION: System accessibility


 The network adapter that is equivalent to the network interface “br0” in CCT 800 must not be
removed, otherwise the functionality of VirtuoSIS cannot be ensured anymore!
 Ensure that the network interface, which is used for the communication to VirtuoSIS via a GEP or an
IF card, is available and accessible in the network in order to be able to access the system.
 A distinct assignment of the network interfaces in CCT 800 to the network adapters in the hypervisor
is only possible via the respective MAC address as the names of the network adapters, which depend
on the hypervisor, and the respective configuration for the shown names in CCT 800 may differ (see
also product manual “VirtuoSIS Configuration Guide”).

NOTE: Network segmentation


The following conditions for the network segmentation have to be considered:
 Data transmission from the Linux host and SIP is always done via the network interface “br0”.
 The LAN card can only be allocated to the same network interface to which the NET card is allocated.

 For the Intercom Server S3 or S6, only the network interfaces can be selected which are available
for the Intercom Server (“br0” and “br1”).
 If a network interface configured in CCT 800 is no longer available in a hypervisor, the fallback
interface “br0” is used. However, the configuration is kept and the respective drop-down list in
CCT 800 is highlighted red in order to indicate a missing network interface that can be re-added in

ATTENTION: Licence administration


 Due to copy protection in virtual environments, VirtuoSIS licences cannot be deactivated!
 Within a VirtuoSIS Master, it is only possible to move a licence within a VirtuoSIS Instance or from
one VirtuoSIS Instance to another VirtuoSIS Instance!
 IP subscriber licences must be assigned to the corresponding IP card! These subscriber licences can
be assigned automatically (i.e. subscriber licences are assigned by feature level in descending order
(“D”, “C”, “B” and “A”) or manually. For further information, see page 108!
 Before licencing the interface and network cards, it is recommended to choose the desired card type
at Intercom Server > Cards! If all 14 slots of a VirtuoSIS Instance are used, an additional VirtuoSIS
Instance (max. 10 VirtuoSIS Instances per base licence Professional/VirtuoSIS Master) has to be cre-
ated! With the base licence Starter, only one VirtuoSIS Instance can be used!

Licence assignment
Subscriber licences can be assigned either automatically (i.e. subscriber licences are assigned by
feature level in descending order (“D”, “C”, “B” and “A”) or manually. The licence assignment can be
changed separately for each VirtuoSIS Instance. With a manual licence assignment, subscriber licences
can be allocated to the desired slot individually. For further information, see page 108.

Base licencing
A base licence enables the use of one VirtuoSIS Master (with up to 10 VirtuoSIS Instances with base
licence Professional or 1 VirtuoSIS Instance with base licence Starter).

ATTENTION: Base licencing


First, it is necessary to allocate a base licence. A base licence creates a serial number for VirtuoSIS –
without this serial number, no further licences can be assigned!

Configuration CCT 800


To activate the base licence, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to: Menu Intercom Server > Licence administration
2. Allocate the base licence to the first VirtuoSIS Instance.
Name Description Allocation of the licence to the virtual card in VirtuoSIS
L-SIS-PROx/ Base licence Professional for up
GEP card of the first VirtuoSIS Instance
L-SIS-x to 10 VirtuoSIS Instances

3. Click on the button Synchronise to finish the licence allocation.

NOTES: Further Information


 With means of an upgrade licence, all VirtuoSIS Instances within a VirtuoSIS Master will be up-
graded.
 The version upgrade licence must be chosen depending on the base licence. A base licence Starter
(e.g. L-SIS32-PROx) requires an upgrade licence for VirtuoSIS Starter (e.g. L-SIS32-12U) and a base
licence Professional (e.g. L-SIS-PROx) requires an upgrade licence for VirtuoSIS Professional (e.g.
L-SIS-12U). This applies regardless of whether an upgrade licence from VirtuoSIS Starter to
VirtuoSIS Professional is installed.
 Further information about licencing can be found on page 96.

Slot licencing
The next step is to attach further licences. Each slot in VirtuoSIS has to be licenced separately. The
following licences can be used for VirtuoSIS:

NOTES: Card handling


 Starting with VirtuoSIS 5.1, cards can be allocated in every slot individually (slot 1 to slot 14).
 Slot 15 is designed exclusively for the SIS-NET card.

Allocate SIS key subscriber


ATTENTION: No key subscribers required for S3 and S6
 It is only possible to activate VirtuoSIS key subscribers once!
 When using VirtuoSIS running on a S3 or S6, no key subscribers are required. In this case, the Inter-
com Server itself serves as a hardware dongle.

VirtuoSIS uses connected Intercom stations as dongles to prohibit using a VM image multiple times.
Per VirtuoSIS Master, a minimum of 3 subscribers have to be configured as key subscribers. It is re-
commended to use only control desks or important Intercom stations as key subscribers.

NOTES: Supported key subscribers


 EE 9xxA, ET 9xxA (exceptions: ET 901A, ET 901D), WS-IP, EF 962A: min. DSP 900A 5.3/min, IoIP device

 AF xxxl: min. AF-I 5.3
 SIS-DONGLE (min. VirtuoSIS 4.x and base licence “L-SIS-PRO4” or upgrade licence “L-SIS-PRO4U”)

Furthermore, it is recommended to use as many Intercom stations as key subscribers as possible. The
high number of key subscribers is important, because 2/3 of the key subscribers must be online to use
the system without restrictions.

NOTES: Requirements to run the system


 Per VirtuoSIS Master, a minimum of 3 key subscribers must be configured – recommended are as
many as possible.
 2/3 of the key subscribers must be online.
 Further information in case of faulty key subscribers can be found in the product manual “Virtuo-
SIS Setup Guide”.

SIS-DONGLE
Instead of a regular Intercom station (within the Intercom system), it is possible to use a SIS-DONGLE
as key subscriber. In this case, the SIS-DONGLE has to be configured as a regular Intercom station,
however no audio functions are available.

numbers must only be changed for special configurations with NAT.

ATTENTION: Required firmware versions for communication ports


Communication via port 16400 (Single Port Protocol) is possible with the following minimum firm-
ware versions:
 ET 901: 02.4 Build 03 / 03.1 Build 03
 DSP900 (for ET 908): 03.1 Build 04
Otherwise, the communication is done via port “16400” to “16404”.

NOTE: Port 16399


The port 16399 is used by the program IPStationConfig for configuration of the devices.

8. Optionally, activate the checkbox DYN in order to activate the dynamic registration via the MAC
address.

ATTENTION: Function must also be activated in CCT 800


This feature has also to be activated in CCT 800 (see page 119).

NOTES:
 The dynamic registration of an IP Intercom station described above is enabled by transferring the
MAC address of the device in the data payload of the IP packet. If the MAC address can be set man-
ually (e.g. for the Intercom Client), these IP Intercom stations may have different MAC addresses.
 When using redundant network connections, the activation of the dynamic registration is valid for
both, the primary and the secondary link.

GOOD TO KNOW: Short description – Dynamic registration?


By means of this feature, the registration of an IP Intercom station on an Intercom Server even via a
non-static Internet access (e.g. ADSL) is possible (for the Intercom Server, always a static public IP
address is required).
The registration of the IP Intercom station on the Intercom Server is done with the current IP address
and port number. The allocation subscriber and device will no longer be done via the IP address and
port number, but exclusively via the MAC address of the IP device. Thus, several IP Intercom stations
configured for dynamic registration can be registered on the Intercom Server with the same port
number and the same IP address. Consider that static and dynamic devices may never have the same
port number and IP address.

9. Optionally, activate the checkbox DHCP so that the IP station requests the IP address of the station,
subnet mask and IP address of the router from a DHCP server.
10.In the field Host Name, a name for the IP station can be entered, which identifies the IP station for
the DHCP server. If no name is entered, a standard name will be used when using DHCP.

Device redundancy
In normal operation, the entire communication runs exclusively via the standard connection between
the Intercom Server and a device. Only in case of disconnection (e.g. failure of IP subscriber card, line
fault, power supply of the Intercom Server interrupted etc.), the communication between the Intercom
Server and the device is automatically routed via the first fallback connection, which still offers
unrestricted operation. Therefore, it is possible to carry out redundant IP subscriber cards or Intercom
Servers, via which a fallback connection is routed. Even if the first fallback connection shows an error,
the connection is automatically routed via the second fallback connection.

GOOD TO KNOW: Classification of activated connections


When the IP subscriber or Windows Intercom Client starts initialising, the standard and fallback
connections will automatically be tested within 20 seconds to define the “active” connection. If at least
two connections are reachable, the “active” connections are classified in the following order:
1. Standard connection
2. First fallback connection
3. Second fallback connection

Requirements

Examples for station redundancy


Redundant connection of IP subscribers
The master Intercom Server (server ID “01”) and the secondary Intercom Server (server ID “02”) are
connected separately via an IP connection with the IP subscribers. In case of a line fault, a correspond-
ing message is indicated at both control desk (“line monitoring”).
If the standard connection or an IP subscriber card fails, the connection is routed via the fallback
connection to the secondary Intercom Server. As the Intercom Servers are not networked, the call num-
bers of the affected IP subscribers can be kept with the activated fallback connection. When the master
Intercom Server fails, all incoming calls are displayed at the control desk of the secondary Intercom
Server.

Example: redundant connection of IP subscribers

Redundant connection via networked Intercom Servers


In this example, the master Intercom Server and secondary Intercom Server are networked via a
synchronous link (HDSL or E1). For the standard and fallback connection, different call numbers have
to be configured for the affected IP subscribers.

Configuration of IP, SIP and hybrid stations Intercom Server Configuration

Configuration: CCT 800


The following configuration has to be carried out separately for each connection (standard and
fallback) of an IP subscriber and Intercom Client (up to three times). Depending on the configuration
and the currently activated connection, the respective IP subscriber or Intercom Client may change its
call number.

Enter the same IP configuration as in IPStationConfig for each connection

Configuration CCT 800


Follow the instructions below to configure the fallback connections for an IP station in CCT 800:
1. Go to: Subscriber > Station properties > IP-Terminals > tab Common
2. Terminal IP address: In this field, enter the same IP address, which has been entered in
IPStationConfig for the respective connection (see page 117).
3. Port No.: In this field, enter the same port number, which has been entered in IPStationConfig (see
page 118) for the respective connection.
4. Dynamic registration: Activate this checkbox if the dynamic registration is enabled for the respective
IP subscriber in IPStationConfig. The field “MAC address” is enabled.
5. MAC address: In this field, the MAC address for the connection to the Intercom Server can be
changed (if the checkbox “Dynamic registration” is activated).

 Line monitoring of the fallback connections


Line faults can be indicated at the control desk by a delayed registration of the IP subscriber (e.g. due
to a longer initialisation time of the ports by using certain switches). Within this time range, line faults
can already be indicated at the control desk. If the standard or one of the fallback connections of an IP
subscriber fails, a line fault can be indicated via line monitoring at a control desk. The following con-
figuration has to be carried out separately for each connection of an IP subscriber (up to three times).
The same subscriber ports has to be used as for the configuration of the standard and fallback connec-
tions. Follow the instructions below to configure line monitoring for the fallback connections:
1. Configure a line monitoring for the desired fallback connection of the IP station.
2. Go to: Subscriber > Station properties > IP-Terminals > tab Extended Settings
3. Card poll time: In this drop-down list, the card poll time of the standard and fallback connection can
be selected. The Intercom Server polls the respective IP subscriber card constantly after the selected
time to recognize a line fault, to which the IP subscriber belongs to.
→ Recommended value: 8 [s]

Adjust the polling times to indicate line faults faster

4. Station poll time: In this drop-down list, the station poll time of the standard and fallback connection
can be selected. The station polls its allocated IP subscriber card constantly after the selected time
to recognize a line fault. If at least one fallback connection is enabled for the respective IP subscriber,
the value “8 seconds” is automatically used for the entry “Off”.
→ Recommended value: Off
5. Go to: Subscriber > Station properties > tab Common
6. Line monitoring delay time [s]: In this drop-down list, the line monitoring delay can be selected for

 Call numbers up to 8-digits


As of PRO800 1.1 call numbers with up to 8 digits can be assigned to subscribers, inputs and outputs
(up to PRO800 1.1 only 4-digits).

Restrictions
 Call numbers that begin with the same digit sequence, may not be used (e.g. 22 and 220 cannot be
used together in one Intercom Server).
 The checkbox Enable full functionality has to be activated for a station output with a 8-digit call num-

Privacy, busy, re-call request

Privacy function
If a subscriber does not wish to be called aloud, he has the possibility to protect his station against calls.
If a subscriber protected by privacy is called, both the caller and the receiver are given an acoustic
signal (privacy signal). At the called station the red lamp blinks, with display stations the display text
of the caller is indicated in the display.
The call is taken over by dialling any button or by lifting up the station (with EE311, EF311, EE320,
EE411, EE420 or EE811). Both stations disconnect automatically if the call is not answered within a
configurable time (by default, 30 seconds).

Intercom Server Configuration Direct dialling, button disabling, hierarchy

 Hierarchy level

In order to block calls from certain subscribers to certain stations it is possible to arrange the subscriber
numbers into hierarchy levels. The call relations between the levels can be configured as desired that
means for each of the 15 levels you may define to which level a call may be carried out or not.

General concept
 By default, the 15 hierarchy levels are divided into 8 main hierarchy levels (level 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13
and 15) and 7 interim hierarchy levels (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14) of hierarchy.
 The priority of the levels starts with 1 (lowest priority).
 Each main level is able to call into the next higher level and into all lower levels.
 Each interim level is able to call into the next higher main and interim hierarchy level and into all
lower levels (e.g. level 2 can call levels 3 and 4).
Hierarchy level Can built-up a call too these hierarchy levels

buttons) can be used for an EE 980. For this, min. EE 980 firmware version “one_v1.6.0.bif” is re-
quired.

Allocation of direct dialling modules (WSDD)


For the direct dialling modules WSDD 53V and WSDD 59V an allocation to the desired device is
necessary because the modules are not recognised when reading out the Intercom Server. The direct
dialling modules can be used with all digital and IP WS stations and all devices with input level
detection (e.g. Intercom modules ET808A or ET908A). The modules can be allocated manually to the
inputs (IN1, IN2 or IN3).

Dialling functions for inputs


An activated input can initiate different functions in the Intercom Server:
 Simulation of dialling at a certain subscriber, as soon as the input is activated, or
 Change the function of a subscriber's buttons while the input is active.
One input can initiate either dialling or changing the buttons, the functions cannot be combined. The
following inputs can be used:
 An input on a plug-in card Gx-8E8A or Gx-16E.
 An input on the motherboard G3-GEM (GE300) or on the power supply card G8-GEN (GE800).
 An internal input of a station (activation of these inputs see page 233).
 A virtual input (see page 247). These can be activated e.g. with the function “linking inputs to out-
puts” (see page 246).
Depending on the cabling of the inputs, five different switch steps can be indicated (break, 15k, 5k6, 1k5
and short circuit). Applies only for inputs on the plug-in cards Gx-8E8A, Gx-16E, ET8E8A and the
following station types:
CD 800 EE 7000 EE 900A EF 962A
EF 962H EF 963A ES 962H ECCT 80008A
ET 962A ET 962H ET 970A ET 908A
EX 200 EX 7000 WS series ET 970H

The inputs can be wired according to one of the following methods:


IN

2k2 10k

Method 1: 15k

short 1k5 5k6

IN
2k2 6k8

Method 2: 15k short 1k5 5k6

ATTENTION:
With an input on the power supply card G8-GEN (GE800), on the motherboard G3-GEM (GE300) or
with a station internal input only two switch steps can be indicated (break and short). Virtual inputs
can indicate all five switch steps!

Automatic volume control


The microphone of the station monitors the current noise level and automatically activates the
adequate volume mode. Additionally it is possible to automatically switch to volume mode “Low”
when a button is pressed at the station to protect the person in front of the station against the high
volume.

NOTE:
During a conversation or a call request, the automatic volume control is deactivated. This means the
microphone does not monitor the ambient noise level during that period of time (because of different
noise level conditions during the conversation / the call request). But during the conversation / the call
request there is a possibility to toggle manually between the volume modes “High” and “Low” (see

 Intelligent Volume Control (IVC)



Feature PRO 800 4.1 – Intelligent Volume Control (IVC)
Automatic volume control of the loudspeaker and microphone gain in response to the ambient
noise level.

The “Intelligent Volume Control” (IVC) distinguishes between the ambient noises and the voice of the
person speaking. IVC continuously monitors the ambient noise and adjusts the gain of both the loud-
speaker and the microphone of the station in response to the changing noise level. This feature allows
for automatic adaptation of the conversation state at the station to the ambient noise, particularly in
environments where there are large differences in the volume of ambient noise, such as at a railway
station or on a motorway.

Requirements
The following firmware versions are supported:
 DSP800A min. 2.6
 DSP800B min. 2.0
 DSP900A min. 5.6
 AF-I min. 5.5
 AF-D min. 1.5
 IoIP device 7.0
As the ambient noise level increases, the loudspeaker gain will automatically increase, while the
microphone gain will decrease within a specifically defined volume range. Examples of ambient noise
levels include static noises, such as the sound of an incoming train at a railway station, and pulsating
noises, like those produced by a pneumatic hammer.

NOTE:
The IVC does not control the volume during playback of DSP tones.

At a station with a display, the station test for the “ambient noise level” can be accessed by holding
down and 9, and then releasing :

The following information will be shown on the display:


 1: Current ambient noise level.
 2: Minimum volume level.
 3: Current loudspeaker gain.
 4: Maximum noise level.
To cancel the station test, press x (see page 519).

258 3.1/0923
Intercom Server Configuration Speech control

Loudspeaker gain
As the ambient noise level changes, the volume of the loudspeaker will be adjusted continuously to
match the noise level. The minimum volume is determined by the configured volume level of the
station. When the ambient noise level increases, the loudspeaker gain will be raised by up to 4 volume
levels (+12 dB). However, the configured maximum volume level (e.g. max. 12 at WS station) cannot
be exceeded. The maximum loudspeaker gain is achieved when the ambient noise level reaches 85 dB
(see illustration below).
volume level example: WS station

40 45 50 55 65 70 75 80 90 95 100 ambient noise level
60 85 (dB)
Example
Consider an intercom station located next to a railway platform with a configured volume level of 7.
When a train arrives at the platform, the ambient noise level rises above 85 dB, causing the loudspeaker
gain at the intercom station to increase by approximately 4 volume levels (+12 dB) to level 11. Once the
train has departed, and the ambient noise level drops below 60 dB, the loudspeaker gain at the
intercom station is decreased to the configured volume level of 7.

3.1/0923 259
Speech control Intercom Server Configuration

Microphone gain
The gain of the microphone is continuously adjusted to match the ambient noise level. The minimum
volume is determined by the configured volume level of the station. When the ambient noise level
increases, the microphone gain will be reduced by up to 12 dB. The minimum microphone gain is
achieved when the ambient noise level reaches 85 dB, as shown in the illustration below. As the
ambient noise level increases, the person speaking at the station automatically speaks louder due to
the Lombard effect, whereby the useful signal remains approximately the same for the listener and the
ambient noise level will be decreased by the reduced microphone gain.

Example
Consider a station located next to a motorway. When a car passes the station, the ambient noise level
rises above 85 dB, causing the microphone gain to decrease by approximately 12 dB. Once the car has
passed and the ambient noise level drops below 60 dB, the microphone gain is increased by approxi-
mately 12 dB.

No configuration via CCT 800 required.

 Multiple group calls simultaneously


It is possible to initiate a group call, while a previously initiated group call is waiting for an answer. For
this button “T” has to be dialled before the group number (e.g. “01T0” for group 0).

NOTE:
A normal group call (without pre-dialling T) can be answered with “TT” also by a subscriber which
is not configured as group call receiver.

ATTENTION:
 Only if the first group call was initiated with pre-dialling of T it is possible to initiate a second group
call.
 If the group call subscribers overlap, the group call initiated last is switched through.
 For group calls, which have been initiated in this manner, answer back with “TT” is possible only
from the respective receiver group.

No configuration via CCT 800 required.

 Naming of group calls


For easy identification names can be advised to a group calls. When a group call is dialled the name of
the called group is displayed in dot-matrix display stations.

It is possible to reduce the volume of All Call/group call receivers in the same room to the feedback
protection volume. Therefore the announcement is still audible, but feedback is suppressed. For further
information, see page 164.

 PA synchronisation

If the Intercom Server is connected to a third-party PA system, it may be required to delay the playback
of a group call to ensure a free channel in the PA system. Therefore, the Intercom Server must receive
a “ready” ICX message to carry out the group call.
The required incoming ICX message is triggered in the same way as the dialling simulation of the T
button at the initiating subscriber.
Example: “00 40 00 NNNN 000A 82” (NNNN = call number of the initiating subscriber)

Configuration CCT 800


 Go to: Intercom Server - Block XX > Group options

 Priority levels for pre-configured Simplex conferences


Priority levels can be configured for pre-configured Simplex conferences that allow to override various
receiver states in order to put the conference call through. In case one of the conference participants
performs one of the reception functions listed below, the overriding capacity of an incoming confer-
ence depends on its priority level. If the conference call has a higher priority level than the reception
function of the other conference participants, the conference call will be put through automatically.
However, the original speech channel to the overwritten reception functions will be enabled automat-
ically once the subscriber leaves the conference. The speech channel of the conference participant will
be closed from a priority level 8 or 9. The conference is faded as described in the table below:
Priority levels
Reception option Fading: no Fading: yes
Conversation 1–2 3–9
All call initiator 1–6 7–9
All call receiver 1–4 5–9

 Feed-in of audio signals


The following types of feeding-in audio are possible:
 Feed in via music input (see page 287)
 Feed in via analogue subscriber (see page 287)
 Feed in via digital subscriber (see page 287)
 Feed in via G8-AUD4 (see page 288)
 Feed in via ST801 (see page 288)

Feed in via music input (music only)


Via the music input (GE300: terminals “MUSIC” on G3-GEM, GE800 terminals “MU1” and “MU2” on
G8A-GEN of the 1st housing) it is possible to feed-in an audio signal (e.g. background music) into the
Intercom system.

 Feed in via analogue subscribers



Up to 8 audio signals can be fed in each over the terminals A and B of the first subscriber of a
G3/G8-GET-4D with 0 dB at 600 Ohm (turn the switch on the subscriber card). For the remaining
analogue subscribers the signal has to be adjusted with an external pre-amplifier (e.g. ST801; see
page 288).

ATTENTION:
For the feed-in, use a free subscriber of a G3/G8-GET-4D card. The use of a G3/G8-TEL subscriber is
not supported.

 Feed in via digital subscribers


GE 300/GE 800 with G3-GED-4/G8-GED-4D and Intercom station
Up to 40 additional music programs can be fed in over digital (2-wire) Intercom PCBs, either with 7 kHz
or with 3.5 kHz (feed in with 3.5 kHz requires only half of the audio channels). For each music program
an ECCT 80008 is connected to any subscriber of a G3-GED-4D/G8-GED-4D, the music is fed in over the
terminals “MIC+” and “MIC-” of the ET808.
If both Music and Radio Conference are used, it is not possible to use all 40 music channels and all 40
radio channels. The following combinations are possible:
Radio channels Music channels
1 – 40 1–8
1 – 32 1 – 32
1 – 24 1 – 40

ATTENTION:
The numbers of the channels are the deciding factor, not the amount!

3.1/0923 287
Music, radio conference Intercom Server Configuration

 Feed in via “G8-AUD4”


With the digital connection- and recording card it is possible to optimally feed-in audio signals into the
Intercom system. All audio inputs and outputs have a galvanic separation, electronic level adaptation
as well as a graphic equalizer for correction of the sound quality.

NOTE:
 For further information about the features and configuration of the G8-AUD4 card, see the product
manual “G8-AUD4”.
 Audio feed-in is also possible with a Gx-DSP IAX. For further information, see the product manual
“Gx-IAX”.

 Feed in via “ST801”



With the ST801 audio interface it is possible to feed-in frequency optimized audio signals into the
Intercom system. Connection of one channel (IN and OUT) to an Intercom subscriber (by default, AB-
CD) in analogue 4-wire technology.

NOTE:
For further information about the features and configuration of the ST801, see the product manual
“Audiocom”.

Precautions
 The subscribers used for feed in cannot be used for Intercom functions any more.

ATTENTION:
Configured music programs require memory in the main memory of the Intercom Server! A list of
the memory capacity can be found on page 549!

 If a pre-configured conference (e.g. “7T1”; see page 279) is already configured, the corresponding
radio conference (“6T1”) cannot be configured any more.

NOTE:
For the required audio channels, see the product manuals “GE800” and “GE300”.

Public address (PA) Intercom Server Configuration

Public address (PA)

 PA announcements

What are PA announcements?
PA announcements are group calls with special PA functions for public address (PA) systems. These
PA announcements can be triggered either via an ICX message or a direct dialling module. The stand-
ard group calls “60” to “89” correspond to the PA zones “1” to “30”.

Priority of PA announcements
Every PA announcement has a configurable priority (“01” to “99”). For receivers and triggers in the
same PA zone, this priority determines whether the PA announcement will be cross-faded when two
or more PA announcements are triggered simultaneously. A cross-faded PA announcement will not be
heard by a receiver.

Trigger of a PA announcement
 Two or more PA announcements can be simultaneously triggered without cross-fades, independent-
ly of the priority for different PA zones.
 When a PA announcement is being broadcast and a second announcement is triggered with a lower
priority in the same or overlapping PA zone, the trigger of the second announcement hears a busy
tone and must wait for the first announcement to finish. The first announcement cross-fades the sec-
ond one.
 When a PA announcement is being broadcast and a second PA announcement is triggered with a
higher priority in the same or overlapping PA zone, the first PA announcement will be cross-faded.
The first PA announcement will not be cancelled and will be broadcast again, after the second PA
announcement is finished. The trigger of the cross-faded PA announcement does not receive any au-
dible or visual notification during the active cross-fade.

Receiver of a PA announcement
 Any announcement with a priority higher than an already-active announcement will be cross-faded
at the receiver.
Example: At the receiver, a PA announcement with the priority “21” cross-fades any PA
announcements (in the same zone) with priorities “1” through “20” but will not cross-fade any PA
announcement with priorities “21” to “99”.

 PA coupling

Announcements to different loudspeaker circuits can be carried out via a PA system connected to the
Intercom Server. The AF-coupling of the PA system is done over the loudspeaker output of a 4-wire
subscriber card (terminals C, D) or via the G8-DSP AUD4 card. The loudspeaker circuits are selected
with inputs of the PA system that are switched by floating contacts of the Intercom Server.
The subscriber that is connected to the PA system is called with an up to 4-digit code (freely con-
figurable), the loudspeaker circuit (or more circuits) is activated by means of one (or more) attendant
contacts. The announcement is cancelled with X, like a normal conversation. The length of the call tone
until the conversation lamp lights can be configured (see page 163).

Configuration CCT 800


 An attendant contact has to be configured for the relay, which activates the loudspeaker circuit (see
page 241).

 If the connection between the amplifier and the Intercom Server is interrupted (e.g. line fault, power
failure), the offline mode prevents a restart of the amplifier. This ensures that the existing configura-
tion of the amplifier will not be deleted by a restart. This means the amplifier can be operated as a
stand-alone unit (with limited functionality) without being connected to an Intercom Server (e.g. for
“local announcement” on page 305).

Alarm function
The alarm functions can be used for different applications, the two main applications are:
 Silent Alarm: Initiation of an alarm at a preconfigured group by e.g. a threatened officer by pressing
a button or a foot switch. The receivers of this group can listen to the happening at the initiator after
taking over the alarm. The number of listener is shown in the display of the initiator.
 Alarm: Playback of a pre-recorded audio file or an announcement to a pre-configured group (e.g. for
evacuation alarm).
The receivers can be arranged in 10 groups (same groups as on page 271). If a group is used as alarm
receiver, group calls can still be initiated in this group.

ATTENTION:
When using IP subscriber cards, restrictions possibly exist for this function (see page 520)!

Silent alarm

The alarm process


 Initiate with a button
The alarm is initiated with dialling the direct dialling code “9T2” and the receiver group (e.g. “9T201”
to trigger the alarm in receiver group 01). A single subscriber can initiate multiple alarms with different
direct dialling codes. The initiator does not receive any tone signal, but the conversation lamp is acti-
vated by default (see page 309). With dialling the direct dialling code “9T2T” at the initiator, the idle
display state is activated at all receiver stations.

NOTE: Alarm must be trigger via direct dialling


Dialling the code “9T2” and the receiver group directly does not trigger the alarm.

 Initiate via input (e.g. foot switch)


The alarm can also be initiated by activation of an input, which simulates the dialling of the initiating
subscriber (see page 231).

 Alarm receivers
The alarm is indicated at the receivers with buzzer (interval depends on priority), blinking conversation
lamp and blinking display (shows identification of initiator). With dialling the direct dialling code
“9T2T” at the initiator, the idle display state is activated at all receiver stations.

 Monitor the alarm at the alarm group


The alarm is taken over by the receivers with any button, now the receiver can listen to the initiator's
station.

 Cancel alarm with code


The alarm is cancelled by entering a configurable code (the code may not start with T), which can also
be activated by dialling simulation of an input. This code has to be defined by Direct Dialling, which
makes it possible to entitle single stations for ending the alarm. Depending on the configuration of the
alarm, single subscribers can switch off reception of the alarm by pressing button X for at least one
second. If during an alarm all receivers (that have already taken over the alarm) switch off reception or
build up another conversation, so that nobody is listening, the alarm is automatically initiated again
after 4 seconds.

(e.g. “9 = 9T20” for group 0 or “9 = 9T200” for group 0 with 2-digit dialling: see page 212).
 If an input is used for triggering, a dialling simulation has to be configured for the respective input
(e.g. “9T20” for initiating an alarm in “Group 0”; see page 231).
 Priority: In this drop-down list, the reception priority can be selected for this alarm (see page 312).
 Disconnect: Activate this checkbox to switch-off reception with this receiver group via the button X.

The alarm Process


 Initiate alarms via inputs, feed-in alarm signal via subscriber
The AF signal for the alarm announcement is fed in over the terminals A and B of the first subscriber
of a G3-GET-4D / G8-GET-4D with 0 dB on 600 Ohm (DIP switch on the subscriber card has to be turned).

NOTE:
For further information on subscriber cards, see the product manuals “GE300” and “GE800”.

The alarm is initiated by activation of an input, which simulates dialling of the code (“9T2” and the
number of the receiver group) for the subscriber that feeds in the AF.

 Evacuation alarm initiating and receiving


The alarm announcement is switched automatically to all stations within the receiver group, the
number of the initiator blinks in the display.

 Cancel alarm with code


The alarm is cancelled either by dialling simulation of an input (code 9T30) or by entering a configur-
able code at an entitled station (the code may not start with T). Depending on the configuration of the
alarm, single subscribers can switch off reception of the alarm by pressing button X for at least one
second. If during an alarm all receivers switch off reception or build up another conversation, so that
nobody is listening, it can be configured that the alarm is automatically initiated again after 4 seconds.

General

Symphony Control Desk Service


As of VirtuoSIS 12, the new Symphony control desk service is available in addition to the classic control
desk functions. This allows the simplest configuration of control desk functions and subscription to
queues which support call priorities.
A station can be configured either as a classic control desk or as a Symphony Control Desk Service con-
trol desk. Depending on configuration, the functionality may vary.

Classic control desk


Stations, which are configured as control desk, can carry out the following control desk functions in
addition to the standard Intercom functions:
 Call requests: By pressing a call button on a station, a call can be requested from the control desk.
Active call requests are stored at the control desk and have to be acknowledged manually in order
to establish a call to the respective station. It is not possible to cancel active call requests and there-
fore to decline a not accepted call. Not acknowledged call requests are indicated on the display of
the control desk and an acoustic signal (“buzzer”) sounds. Further information about the configura-
tion of call requests can be found on page 335.
 Classic call parking: During an active call between a control desk and the calling station, this call can
be parked by pressing either the button 2 or 3. This call is displayed at the respective control desk
as call request and can be continued at a later point in time. The call type of the parked call changes
to “call type 3” (on page 359). Further information about the configuration of the classic call park
function can be found on page 337.
 Input messages: Activated inputs (e.g. Gx-8E8A, Gx-16E, station inputs) are stored at the control
desk and have to be acknowledged manually. Not acknowledged call requests are indicated on the
display of the control desk and an acoustic signal (“buzzer”) sounds. Depending on the configuration
and cabling of the inputs, the following switch steps can be indicated:
 Idle mode
 Active 1 (normal call)
 Active 2 (emergency call)
 Short circuit
 Line fault
By default, the switch step “Active 1” is indicated at the control desk with standing display and
buzzer with long interval; the switch step “Active 2” is indicated with flashing display and buzzer with
short interval. Further information about the indication of input messages can be found on page 339.

 Call transfer
This call transfer is permanently active that means if a call is not taken over at the control desk within
a configurable time, the calls are transferred to a pre-configured control desk (or the call type or
indication is changed). Per control desk 8 different call transfers with separate times can be defined. A
group of calls can also be transferred to several control desks. The following transfers/transformations
are possible:
 Call transfer (parallel indication at another control desk)
 Call transfer direct dialling
 Deactivate call creation
 Deactivate buzzer
 Transform normal call to an emergency call
Further information about call transfer types can be found on page 351.

 Time absent [s]: In this field, the time can be entered, after which calls are transferred when at least
one call has already been transferred (1 to 1000 seconds (~16 minutes)).
 The time in the field Time absent [s] is usually defined shorter than in Time present [s]. That
means if calls were already transferred, it is assumed that the operator is not at his place and the
calls are transferred faster. As soon as any button is pressed at the control desk, the time in the
field Time present [s] is valid again.
 Function: In this drop-down list, the type of transfer/transformation to be activated can be selected

 Loudspeaker/microphone surveillance

The loudspeaker sends a white noise in configurable intervals (1 minute to 1 hour). The white noise is
received by the microphone, the DSP analyses the spectrum. In the event of a fault there is a permanent
rushing. A faulty loudspeaker or microphone is signalled as a line fault, so the fault can be indicated at
a control desk. In addition the relay OUT1 of the respective station can be defined for indication of
loudspeaker/microphone monitoring.

ATTENTION:
Loudspeaker/microphone surveillance does not work at Intercom stations with an external loud-
speaker, handset, headset or activated handset function. When using build-in kits, the function
depends on construction details.

 White noise: min. DSP software 


NOTE:
As of DSP software 3.0 the loudspeaker/microphone surveillance is carried out with white noise
instead of a DTMF tone. Possibly the values for loudspeaker/microphone surveillance has to be
adjusted.

Configuration CCT 800


 Go to: Subscriber > DSP-Features > tab Surveillance
 Function Relay 1: In this drop-down list, the indication mode of the loudspeaker/microphone

converter ET 901.

 Loudspeaker-/Microphone Surveillance cycle time: In this checkbox, the time interval can be select-
ed, in which the loudspeaker sends the white noise (1 minute to 1 hour; None = loudspeaker- /micro-
phone surveillance disabled).

ATTENTION:
With DSP software up to v2.6, a cycle time of up to 15 hours is possible. As of DSP software 3.0, the
maximum cycle time is 1 hour, even if a larger value has been defined in CCT 800.

 Audio monitoring

The DSP station permanently monitors the noise level in the room via the connected microphone. On
exceeding the level, the dial of button 9 is simulated in order to initiate a direct dial or call request to
a defined control desk.

Values for audio monitoring changed


As of DSP software 3.0 the values for audio monitoring volume and integration time have been
changed. They have been adjusted to match the values of SA101 systems.

 Noise level and integration time


 The noise level defines the volume at the microphone of the monitored Intercom station, above
which a call request to the control desk is initiated. The following noise levels are available:
Noise level in dB(A) 60 63 67 70 73 77 80 83 87

GOOD TO KNOW:
The indicated noise levels are guidelines and depend on the position of the potentiometer for
microphone sensitivity and on the sensitivity of the connected microphone.

 The integration time defines how long the volume at the microphone of the monitored Intercom
station has to exceed the defined noise level before a call request is initiated (0 to 15 seconds).

ATTENTION:
New noise levels and integration times are available with DSP software min. 3.0!

Restrictions
 After a call request has been initiated and during an All Call or group call monitoring is deactivated
automatically, because otherwise the signal from the loudspeaker would initiate a call request.
 Audio monitoring has restricted functionality at stations with a gooseneck microphone, handset, head-
set or activated handset function. When using build-in kits the function depends on construction details.
 When audio monitoring is configured for a station, reception of music is not possible.

 Deleting of monitors at the start of the Intercom Server


It is very common that the Intercom system shares a video switcher with other systems. When the In-
tercom Server that is connected to the video system is started, not all video monitors are to be reset.
Only those monitors that have been assigned to a control desk as main, preview, or other type monitor
are allowed to be reset.

Configuration CCT 800


 Interfaces > Data interfaces > tab Video switcher
 1st controlled monitor: In this field, the monitor number of the first monitor on the video switch can
be entered, which are controlled in ascending order by the Intercom system (lower numbers cannot
be controlled by the Intercom system).
 Send camera switch-OFF at start: Activate this checkbox to output “black screen” messages for the
monitors. If this checkbox is deactivated, only the message “00 5E 00 0000 0000 00” is output. If an
Idle screen camera is configured, a black screen is shortly displayed after a restart, followed by the
idle screen.

 Bonding of monitors

Feature PRO 800 3.x – bonding of monitors
PRO 800 With this feature it is possible to create a bonding of non-audio clients to audio subscribers.
LICENCE PRO3U This allows you to add up to 4 monitors to an audio subscriber without a video switcher.

Example

Example 1:
For the host client (CD 810I), no monitor is confi-
gured, this means that the colour TFT display re-
ceives no video. CTDS 50P (non-audio client) is
bonded to the CD 810I and it is configured as main
monitor. This means that each video from a video
conversation to the CD 810I is indicated at the CDTS
50P (non-audio client).

Example 2:
The function “main monitor mirroring” is activated
for the CD 810I. This means that the monitor from
the CD 810I is mirrored to the slave monitor.

stations. However, recording for itself is not subject to this restriction.
 An Intercom station cannot receive or send more than one audio signals at a time. As a result, the
target subscriber will have no audio signal available during recordings or playbacks made using the
9T01 function.

Recording of pre-recorded audio files


To record a pre-recorded audio file at an Intercom station, follow the instructions below:
1. Dial the button sequence “9T01” at the recording station.

NOTE:
The button sequence “9T01” can be dialled with the following functions:
 Direct dialling
 Selection from the F2 function list at a station with dot-matrix display
 Dialling simulation of an input
 ICX message

2. At this station, enter the call number of the station to be recorded.

NOTE: Call number of own or remote station can be entered


It is possible to enter either your own call number (to record or change pre-recorded audio files for
your own subscriber), or to enter the call number of another station in the Intercom System (to
change a pre-recorded audio file remotely).

3. Enter the pre-recorded audio ID, in which the recording should be saved (001 – 199). The pre-
recorded audio ID is separated into a freely selectable and fixed IDs. Further information can be
found on page 402.
4. The recording mode starts. The following functions are available in the recording mode:
Button Description
Hold T Start recording
Release T Stop recording
0 Start playback
1 Saves the record for the selected subscriber
2 Recording for all subscribers will be saved on the card
3 Delete recording (available only while function is activated)
4 Scrolls through the saved audio files downwards (only during the replay)
6 Scrolls through the saved audio files upwards (only during the replay)
X Cancel recording

5. The save process lasts 60 seconds. In case of an error, a error tone is audible for 4 seconds (cancel
with X), followed by an new recording that can be started by pressing the button 1

ATTENTION: Audio files are available after 2–3 minutes after recording
When using the 9T01 function to overwrite an existing pre-recorded playback message, the new,
error-corrected recording will be available two to three minutes after the time indicated by the
confirmation tone on the calling terminal! During this time, the terminal will stay in idle mode and
will not indicate the progress of the overwriting process!

Block configuration
Intercom Server blocks can be configured in Intercom Server networks (LAN, WAN, CNET-E1, CNET-
W, S0) to define in which housings functions like All Call or group calls be initiated. By pre-dialling a
function code, one Intercom Server or a group of Intercom Servers are selected and then the function
is carried out.

ATTENTION:
If no code number is pre-dialled the functions are carried out in all Intercom Server housings
connected over G8-NET, CNET-E1 or CNETW, but not in Intercom Server housings connected over
LAN/WAN or S0!

Example: CNET-LAN

Example: CNET-LAN
These Intercom Server blocks can be used for the following functions:
All Call Pre-defined conference 7T
Group call Subscriber index
Ringing at a group Chime signal

or S0.

 Restrictions with WS series in mixed systems


At mixed operation of Intercom Servers with different PRO 800/PRO software versions in the same
config block restrictions for WS series stations apply:
 The station texts are saved with the block-data and are limited to 14 digits up to PRO 800 1.0.
 Because the old station texts are too short for the WS series new, longer texts have been introduced
as of PRO 800 1.1.
 If Intercom Servers with software below PRO 800 1.1 are in the same block as Intercom Server with
software PRO 800 1.1 and above the longer texts are no longer supported. The Intercom Servers with
software below PRO 800 1.1 cannot handle the new, longer texts.

 If Intercom Servers in the same configuration block have different software versions (e.g. Intercom
Server no. 1 with PRO 800 1.0 and Intercom Server no. 2 with PRO 800 1.1) at receiving/opening of
the CCT 800 file the following text is displayed:

 Although the user can configure this manually, a dialogue will appear to confirm the configuration
and explain that no extended texts for WS series stations are stored.
 This configuration can also occur when Intercom Servers are initialised to different server IDs e.g. #1

Network redundancy

General
A fallback network can be configured as an additional and redundant network connection. As soon as
the standard network fails, the connection is automatic directed via the fallback connection and
activated conversations are terminated. The following network connection can be used as standard
and/or fallback connections:
 Synchronous Intercom networks (GEV, CNET-W, CNET-E1): Permanently switched data connections
(“dedicated line”).
 Asynchronous Intercom networks (NET, LAN, WAN, S0): Setup of data channel as soon as data is

Via the two Ethernet ports of the G8-NET, it is possible to realise a network redundancy connection. If
one of the two cables cannot establish a connection to the switch (e.g. due to a defect), the connection
automatically takes over via the second cable.

Scheme of a network redundancy

NOTE: Requirements for network redundancy


For network redundancy, the switch must support the “Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol” (RSTP).

Configuration CCT 800


1. Go to: IP - Settings > tab NET-Firewall
2. Activate the checkbox Allow packets between up- and downlink to establish a connection over the
uplink and downlink jack between two switches.

Examples for network redundancy


Redundant network cards in master and secondary Intercom Servers
The master Intercom Server (server ID “01”) is connected with the secondary Intercom Servers (server
ID “02” and ”03”) via a HDSL connection, respectively an IP network. If one of the standard connections
or network cards fails, the connection to the affected secondary Intercom Server is routed via the
fallback network.

Example: redundant network cards in master and secondary Intercom Servers

Network function Intercom Server Configuration

Redundant LAN network cards in master and secondary Intercom Servers


If the standard connection or a LAN network card fails, the connection is routed via the fallback
network.

Example: redundant network cards in master and secondary Intercom Servers

Two redundant master Intercom Server rings


The primary master Intercom Server (server ID “01”) is connected with the secondary Intercom Servers
(server ID “10” and “11”) via an IP connection and networked via a synchronous link (HDSL or E1) with
the secondary master Intercom Server (server ID “2”).

430 3.1/0923

 SNMP
Feature PRO 800 3.x – SNMP
PRO 800
This feature allows you to use SNMP for the Intercom Server and Intercom IP terminals. Each
LICENCE PRO3U Intercom Server and Intercom subscriber operates as an own “Agent”, this allows you to use
SNMP for the desired “Agents”.

General Definition
The “Simple Network Management Protocol” (SNMP) is a network protocol for controlling and
monitoring network elements (e.g. router, server, switches, IP stations or Intercom Server) via one
central management station/PC. In this process the protocol is controlling the communication between
the monitored device and the monitoring station. SNMP describes the structure of the data packets as
well as the communication process.
The state of the respective device is detected by programs (so called “agents”) which are running
directly on the monitored device. By means of the SNMP, the “management station” is able to
communicate with this “agent” via the IP network.

SNMP is available for following Commend devices:


 Intercom Server
 Intercom Server cards
 Intercom terminals
 Conductor
 All devices with DSP 900A firmware
 WS IP
 WS IP CM
 IoIP device

Management Information Base (MIB)


The respective values (of an “Agent”) read out by the management station, are described in a
“Management Information Base” (MIB). MIBs are description files, in which the single values are listed
in table form.

Using SNMP function


When using the monitoring function via SNMP, the following requirements have to be considered:
 SNMPv2c

Intercom Server Configuration Peer-to-peer audio (P2P)

 Peer-to-peer audio (P2P)



Peer-to-peer audio is an “Auto Discovery protocol” that means that for P2P audio no configuration is
necessary. Peer-to-peer audio is only possible within a network or between individual IP network
nodes. If all “Network requirements” are fulfilled, P2P audio is carried out in the network.

ATTENTION:
If voice recording for an Intercom subscriber is activated, P2P audio is not possible for these
terminals! For voice recording the audio data has to be sent over the Intercom Server! That means,
voice recording always needs one fully-fledged conversation channel!

No configuration via CCT 800 required.

Functionality P2P audio


Each Intercom conversation is established over the Intercom Servers. In case P2P audio is possible and
the conversation is established, the audio data tries to find the shortest path between the devices
(Intercom stations, Intercom modules or Intercom Client). With P2P audio, the devices try to send the
audio data directly between the IP network nodes whereas the conversation information is sent over
the Intercom Server.

Number of maximum conversations


Because of the conversation channels, the conversations between the Intercom Server are limited.
Using “uncompressed” conversations, the number of conversation channels for the Intercom Server
GE 800 can be increased.

NOTE:
For further information, see the product manual “G8-LAN”.

With P2P audio, the number of conversation channels in a network for the other Intercom Servers is
also increased.

Intercom Server Configuration Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP)

 Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP)

What is P2MP?
P2MP (“point-to-multipoint”) is an auto-discovery protocol, which helps to reduce the bandwidth for
group calls, All Calls, music and radio conferences in an IP Intercom System. Instead of an unicast
system, where each subscriber gets an own IP stream, P2MP needs only one stream which is spread
to all IP devices. In case it is not possible for an IP subscriber to use P2MP audio, an unicast connection
will be established instead. P2MP works within the Intercom Server GE800 or VirtuoSIS or over a
“NET”,“LAN”, “WAN” connection between these Intercom Servers.

Examples
Unicast
With PRO 800 2.1 and lower, the whole Commend IP Intercom 5 x 146 kBps
System works as an unicast system, this means that each
subscriber gets an own IP stream from the Intercom Servers. SWITCH

For an All Call to 4 subscribers, 5 IP streams with 146 kbps are


required. This results in a bandwidth of 760 kbps for this All
Call.

P2MP within an IP system


As of PRO800 3.1, the Intercom Servers GE800 and VirtuoSIS try
to use P2MP for each IP terminal. This means that all the
receiving Intercom terminals will only need one IP stream 2 x 146 kBps
altogether.
For an All Call to 4 subscribers with P2MP, only 2 IP streams SWITCH

with 146 kbs are used. This results in a bandwidth reduction of


468 kbps in an Intercom system with only 5 terminals; this
means 62% less traffic!

Abstract
 P2MP is supported for the Intercom Servers GE800 and VirtuoSIS.
 P2MP works independent from the network between the Intercom Servers.
 P2MP is an auto-discovery protocol.
 P2MP domains can be configured for separate networks.
 P2MP reduces the bandwidth for group calls, All Calls, music, conferences and alarms.
 P2MP is automatically switched back to unicast if P2MP isn‘t supported by an Intercom subscriber.
 P2MP works over “NET”,“LAN”, “WAN” connections.

Configuration CCT 800


 Go to: Intercom Server > General Settings > tab Extended Settings
 Point-to-Multipoint IP Address: In this field, the IP address can be entered for P2MP.

NOTES:
 The IP address “224.0.0.1” is a standard multicast IP, which will be provided by the “IANA” for “all
systems on this network”. This means, this IP address will always be forwarded to all ports.
 IP addresses between “224.0.0.0” and “239.255.255.255” can be used.
 Point-to-Multipoint Port: In this field, the port can be entered for P2MP (e.g. “16400”).

Feature PRO 800 4.1 – logic module
The logic module compares incoming ICX messages and states of objects (e.g. subscriber,
output) and will be triggered by a changing truth of the condition. The triggered logic module
executes different actions (send an ICX message, change internal variables) according to the
truth of the condition.

The logic module is based on Boolean law, which represents the truth value of logic. A truth value can
assume the state ”true” or ”false”. The default state of a truth value is ”false”. Depending on the truth
value, the logic module executes defined actions. The logic module is subdivided into an element
dialogue with up to eight elements which are executed sequentially and an object initialisation
dialogue. Each element consists of a condition dialogue and action dialogue.
See the following illustration:

The logic module is triggered by an element. By comparing an incoming ICX message or an object
value with a defined object, the operator determines the truth value of the condition and thus also the
triggering action of the logic module. Depending on the changed truth value of the condition, the action
executes separate actions (send ICX message and change internal object values). The logic module is
triggered only once for the same truth value and incoming ICX message. The object initialisation
defines the objects and data types used by the elements.
A simplified representation of the functionality of the logic module for the configuration is shown
below:

Compatible object comparisons


Operand 1 and operand 2 can be compared using the following matrix:

Compatible object comparisons

Data type
The data type determines the possible values, operations and meaning of an object. The data types are
defined as follows:
Data type Description
The 8-digit number value consists of numbers (0–9). The number value will be filled with lead-
Integer ing “0“-digits if necessary (e.g. number value 47 will be sent as 00000047; leading “0“-digits
will be removed at the input).
The 8-digit time value consists of numbers (0–9) and will be set in tenths of a second (min. 0.0
Timer sec. - max. 999999.9 sec). The time value will be filled with leading “0“-digits if necessary (e.g.
timer value 999.9 will be sent as 000999.9; leading “0“-digits will be removed at the input).
The 8-digit “Nibble Coded Hex (NCH)” value consists of numbers (0–9) and letters (A–F; Hex).
NCH value The NCH value will be filled with leading “0“-digits if necessary (e.g. NCH value 8080 will be
sent as 00008080; leading “0“-digits will be removed at the input).
The 8-digit call number consists of numbers (0–9) and letters (A–F; Hex). The call number will
Call number be filled with leading “F”-digits if necessary (e.g. call number 1506 will be sent as FFFF1506);
leading “F”-digits will be removed at the input).

NOTE:
If the data type NCH value or call number are changed to integer or timer, all values from A–F will be
replaced by “0”.

3.1/0923 447
Logic module Intercom Server Configuration

Object
The object is defined by a data type, object name and object value. The object names are defined in
the following way:
Object type Description
The object value corresponds to the current call type of the subscriber (1-digit), but not the call
SUB
number. The data type of this object is NCH value.
The object value corresponds to the current call type of the input (1-digit). The data type of this
INP
object is NCH value.
The object value corresponds to the current state of the output (1-digit). The object value
OUT changes whenever the state of the selected output changes. The data type of this object is NCH
value.
The object continuously counts from its configured value to 0.0 seconds (changes also its state
when the timer does not run). The timer runs automatically as soon as the object value is
TMR
unequal to 0.0. The object value can only be defined and changed by commands of the logic
module. The data type of this object is timer.
The object value is a selectable variable with a selectable data type (1-digit). The object value
VAR
can be changed by commands of the logic module.
The object value is a selectable constant with a selectable data type (1-digit). The object value
CON
cannot be changed by commands of the logic module.

ATTENTION:
Each configured input and output must have a dialable call number!

Object name
The object name is used for identification. An object name always consists of the 3-digit object type
(e.g. SUB or INP) followed by the 2-digit index number (01–16 for SUB, INP, OUT, CON, TMR and 40 –
4F for VAR).

Object value
The object value describes the current call type, state or user defined value of an object. The following
object values are available

ICX messages
Construction of an ICX message
 The ICX string consists of numbers (0–9) and letters (A–F; Hex).
 The logic module always uses ICX messages with long format.
 The minimum length of an ICX string are 8 characters; the maximum length are 250 characters.
 The logic module does not control the validity of the ICX string, but the length of the ICX string has
to be even (otherwise an alert appears and the ICX string will be reset to the last valid value).

NOTE:
For further information about the configuration of ICX messages, see the product manual “ICX Pro-
tocol”.

Free variable parameters within an ICX string


For an incoming ICX string, which has to trigger the logic module, it is not necessary to match with the
entire reference ICX string. Parts of the reference ICX string can be replaced by question marks “?” as
wildcard. The logic module compares the incoming ICX message only with the part of the reference
ICX string, which are not replaced by a question mark (see illustration below). This way only a certain
part of an incoming ICX string is required to trigger the logic module.
wildcard characters

The logic module will be triggered by the ICX message “00 62 00 12 FFFF 1234 FFFF 4321” (call
indication from subscriber with the call number “1234” to subscriber “4321“). The comparison of “IF
ICX == 00 62 00 12 FFFF 1234 ????????” is valid, because the question marks can be any valid
character.

Referencing an object
An ICX string can contain the reference of a single or several configured objects (subscriber, input, out-
put, constant, variable and timer) as part of the parameter. The ICX string always uses the current value
of the referenced object. Depending on the configuration, the ICX string uses only a certain part of the
value or if the desired number exceeds the digits, the entire value will be used and the remaining un-
used digits will be filled with leading characters, which are determined by the data type.

NOTE:
For further information about the configuration of ICX messages, see the product manual
“ICX Protocol”.

Syntax
The referenced object is made up of the object, the length specification (separated by a colon) and
is put into square brackets:

Length specification
The length specification indicates the number of evaluated digits of the referenced object, which will
be used for the ICX string. The digits of the referenced object are evaluated from right to left. The
minimum value of the length specification is 1; the maximum value is 8.

 When the length specification is longer than the number of digits of the referenced object, the
remaining digits will be filled with leading characters (depending on the data type, see page 447).
 When the length specification is shorter than the number of digits of the referenced object, the
defined amount of digits will be taken, starting from the right.
 When the length specification is equal to the number of digits of the referenced object, all digits
will be taken over.

Position of the reference within the ICX string


Each reference can replace the parameter of an ICX string, but not the task or type. It does not matter
how many object references are used within an ICX string, as long as the maximum number of valid
digits of the ICX string will not be exceeded and the entire number of digits is even. A single or
several reference can replace the entire or only a part of the parameter. See the following
illustrations:
task type parameter(s)

FFFF 1234 [ICX:17:8]

ATTENTION:
The number of all digits of the entire ICX string has to be even (also including references; e.g. with
the object reference [CON01:3] the remaining ICX string has to be uneven), otherwise an alert
appears and the ICX string will be reset to the last valid value!

Example (object reference):


The outgoing ICX string:
Variable 1 as integer: VAR01 = 789
[VAR01:4] = 0789
Constant 1 as call number: CON01 = 1234
[CON01:8] = FFFF1234
00 60 00 81 [CON01:8] [VAR01:4]
The resulting ICX string is “00 60 00 81 FFFF 1234 0789”
Example (ICX reference):
The logic module will be triggered by the ICX message “00 62 00 12 FFFF 1234 FFFF 4321”.
The outgoing ICX string:
Offset = 13 Length specification = 4 [ICX13:4] = 1234
Offset = 17 Length specification = 8 [ICX17:8] = FFFF 4321
00 80 00 80 FFFF [ICX13:4] [ICX17:8]
The resulting ICX string is “00 80 00 80 FFFF 1234 FFFF 4321”

Change of object value: The operator compares the current state of an object of operand 1 with
the state value of operand 2. The operation is only ever true for the moment when the state of
the selected object has changed and is equal to operand 2. Further information about the state
==> of objects can be found on page 448.
Recommendation:
 At a comparison of two objects (e.g. SUB01 ==> OUT03) the “OR” condition should be used.
 Positive conditions should be used (IF, AND, OR).
Examples: Change of object value
Situation 1: Subscriber
Incoming call request of an emergency call at SUB01. The state value of the subscriber
changes to 2.
Condition
SUB01 ==> 2 true SUB01 ==> 3 false
Situation 2: Timer
Timer TMR01 has expired. The state value of the timer changes to 0.
Condition
TMR01 ==> 0 true TMR01 ==> 0 false (when timer is running)

Restrictions
 For the object timer used as operand 1 only the operators equal to, not equal to and change of object
value are available:
== 0.0: The timer is not running
!= 0.0: The timer is running
==> 0: The timer has expired
 For “ICX” used as operand 1 only the operators equal to and not equal to are available.
 Operand 2: In this drop-down list, either an object, a selectable value or an ICX message can be
entered. The operand 2 will be compared with the operand 1 (data type of operand 1 and operand 2
must not be the same). The operand 2 will be configured the following way:
 Object: Select an object, provided an object is also selected for operand 1.

NOTE:
It is not possible to select the same object for operand 1 and operand 2 within the same
operation.

 ICX: Enter an ICX message, provided for operand 1 ICX is selected. The ICX message can consist
of a single or several referenced objects, referenced ICX messages or wildcards. Further informa-
tion about ICX strings in the logic module can be found on page 450.

NOTE:
The number of all digits of the entire ICX string has to be even (also including references; e.g.
with the object references [CON01:3] the remaining ICX string has to be uneven), otherwise an
alert appears and the ICX string will be reset to the last valid value.

 Value: Enter a selectable value, provided an object is selected for operand 1. The data type of the
value depends on the selected object of operand 1 (e.g. time value or integer).
 Optional: In the field Comment, enter a description for the operation.

Action dialogue
Single or several actions will be executed to change internal variables and send ICX messages. The
action will be triggered as soon as the truth of the condition is known.

Action dialogue
 Control field: The control field in the first column shows the current state of the opposite configura-
tion. If the configuration is complete the field turns green, otherwise it turns red. If no configuration
is available the field is grey. The control field does not show whether the configuration is valid but
only if it is complete or not.
 Case: In this field, the cases true and false are indicated. The state of the cases refers to the truth of
the condition. The cases are used in the following way:
 True: If the condition is true, up to 4 configured actions of the cases true will be executed. Actions
of the case false will not be executed.
 False: If the condition is false, up to 2 configured actions of the cases false will be executed.
Actions of the case true will not be executed.

Inbound calls will be directed to the VirtuoSIS' PSTN call number. To forward this number to an Intercom
subscriber, a list of extensions and targets can be configured. These numbers are entered as E.164 formatted
numbers with + as the country-code prefix (e.g. +49).

Incoming Phone Call Handling


Inbound calls, which are calls from the PSTN to the Intercom server, are directed to the Telekom
account's public telephone number(s). These numbers can be configured or located individually. The
Telekom differentiates between Rufnummernblock (number block) and Einzelrufnummer (individual
phone number), and multiples of both can be configured.

Example: Rufnummernblock / Phone Number Blocks


This is the base call number associated with the Telekom account. The number must be dialled with an
extension when calling from the PSTN. The
extensions can be configured to map to an Intercom subscriber’s Intercom call number. For example,
the customer’s Telekom account has the Rufnummernblock +49 911 216 486 62. A phone in the PSTN
calling to +49 911 216 486 62 1 will be forwarded to the VirtuoSIS via the CompanyFlex trunk. Since a
mapping has been configured for this base call number with extension 1 to Intercom station 1003, the
PSTN caller will be connected to that specific Intercom station.
In contrast, if a phone in the PSTN calls +49 911 216 486 62 1010 and extension 1010 has no mapping,
the PSTN caller will be connected to Intercom station 1010 through the Intercom system as a “number
to be dialled”.

Example: Einzelrufnummer / Individual Phone Numbers:


This is a call number associated with the Telekom account. The number has no extension and can be
mapped to an Intercom station via its Intercom call number. For example, The customer’s Telekom
account has the Einzelrufnummer +49 228 536 679 63. When a phone in the PSTN calls this number,
the call will be forwarded to the VirtuoSIS via the CompanyFlex trunk. Here, a mapping to Intercom
station 1001 has been configured for this Einzelrufnummer and thus the caller from the PSTN will be
connected to that specific Intercom station.

PSTN phone number matching:


VirtuoSIS will try to match the called PSTN phone number according to the following rules:
 If no matching base number is found, the full PSTN call number is forwarded to the Intercom system
as the “number to be dialled”, which will likely be rejected if no corresponding Intercom call number
exists. However, if “Dial 0 at incoming call“ is configured, this may be a valid configuration.
 If the Einzelrufnummer is configured with mapping, the respective Intercom station is called.

476 3.1/0923
Intercom Server Configuration SIP functions

 If the Rufnummernblock is configured, the extension is compared against the configuration.


 If a mapping is configured for base call number + extension, the respective Intercom station is called.
 If no mapping is configured for base call number + extension, the extension is forwarded as “number to
be dialled” to the Intercom system.

 Auto Dialler Mode

NOTE: Requirement
To carry out the following configuration, the checkbox Auto Dialler Mode at Interfaces >
SIS-SIP-T > Channels > tab Telephone settings must be activated (see page 473).

Trigger dial sequence

NOTES: Existing call


 With the prefix “XX“, an existing conversation (built up by dialling the interface call number) is
cancelled before switching the dialling sequence. Otherwise, the sequence would not be changed.
 “XX” has no effect on an existing call request. The call remains and is transferred to the new
dialling sequence.

In the example above (screenshot), one input triggers the switch-over of the dialling sequences 1 and
2 for the subscriber 1 (telephone interface):
 Level input “Break” dialling sequence 1 is active

 Level input “Short” dialling sequence 2 is activeEarly media while ringing

ATTENTION: Simultaneous dialled codes


Make sure that two inputs cannot dial a code at the same time. This could happen e.g. if codes for
“short” and for “open” are configured for several inputs. If one input closes and the other opens at
the same time, it cannot be guaranteed if the “open” code or the “short” code was dialled first,
because always the code dialled last becomes effective.

Feature PRO 800 6.1 – Early media while ringing


VirtuoSIS
With early media it s possible to send pre-recorded audio to calling phones during ringing.
LICENCE PRO6U When a phone is calling to an Intercom station and the call is not acknowledged (e.g. station
is busy), the SIP response code “180 – Ringing” will be sent to the calling phone while ringing.
In addition, the called Intercom station also sends an early media stream that contains pre-
recorded audio. This audio stream will be played back at the calling phone for the pending call
(e.g. as calm down signal).

NOTE: SIP response code has to be interpreted


The calling phone must be able to interpret the SIP response code “180 – Ringing”.

Intercom Server Configuration SIP functions

Example for the function “After-Dial from telephone”


In the following example, a wallmount station is mounted next to a door and is operated by VirtuoSIS.
This wallmount station has the call number “801” and is connected to a VoIP server via the trunk “21”.
On the other side, a SIP telephone is operated by a 3rd-party VoIP server. This SIP telephone has the
call number “6000” and is connected to VirtuoSIS via the trunk “841”.
If now a call from the SIP telephone (“6000”) is initiated to the wallmount station (“801”), it is possible
to trigger the door opener, which is connected to the wallmount station (“801”), using the after-dial
function via the SIP telephone (“6000”) (incoming call). However, if a call from the wallmount station
(“801”) is initiated to the SIP telephone (“6000”), it is not possible to trigger the door opener, which is
connected to the wallmount station (“801”), using the after-dial function via the SIP telephone (“6000”)
(outgoing call). To allow after-diallings via the SIP telephone (“6000”) in case a call is initiated from the
wallmount station (“801”), the checkbox After-Dial from telephone has to be activated (see page 473).

LICENCE SYM-BRIDGE

The advantages of an On-Prem Intercom system can be combined with those of Symphony Cloud via
Symphony Bridge. This enables triggering calls from the On-Prem Intercom server to the cloud as well
as callbacks from the cloud to the On-Prem Intercom server. All communication that takes place
between VirtuoSIS and Symphony Cloud is of course encrypted using the latest standards. For further
information, see symphony.commend.com.

Requirements and restrictions


 For Symphony Bridge, the following Intercom servers can be used as the gateway: VirtuoSIS in a
virtualised environment (e.g. VMware vSphere, Nutanix Acropolis Hypervisor (AHV) or Microsoft
Hyper-V), S3 and S6/S6-R.
 VirtuoSIS must have an Internet connection. Make sure that your firewall is not blocking any of the
ports used. For further information, see page 498 as well as product manual “VirtuoSIS Setup
Guide”.
 The connection to Symphony Cloud is encrypted using certificates. For this purpose, VirtuoSIS must
be synchronised with a valid time (NTP).
 Recommended software/firmware versions:
PRO 800 min. 6.4 Build 3
VirtuoSIS min. 11.1.6
 Connection for gateway to On-Prem Intercom server: NET, LAN, GEV, CNET-W, CNET-E1, S0
 Supported On-Prem Intercom servers: VirtuoSIS, S6, S3, GE800, GE300, G8-IP32, IS300, GE700U
 VirtuoSIS must be licenced with a licence “L-SIS-11”, “L-SIS32-11” or later.
 The licence “L-SYM-BRIDGE” is required.
 All SYM-BRIDGE cards must be configured in the same VirtuoSIS instance. A maximum of 14 cards
can be used.
 The call number of a SYM-BRIDGE channel can only be assigned to one call target or Symphony
Cloud ring group.

Configuring Symphony Bridge

Setting up the infrastructure


Follow these steps to configure VirtuoSIS to call a station in a Symphony Cloud ring group via a
connection with Symphony Cloud. The following example setup consists of a station and an Intercom
server with VirtuoSIS, which are using SYM-BRIDGE to connect to Symphony Mobile Client via
Symphony Cloud.

Switch Router

Station Symphony Mobile Client

Firewall configuration (IPv4)


Depending on your network topology, all traffic may be blocked by a firewall. Open these ports for
mainly outgoing traffic to Symphony Cloud. The specified port numbers are default values. Other
values can be configured for some of these ports. For further information, see also
https://manuals.commend.com/symphony-cloud/online-help_en-uk.

Restricting firewall rules to specific hostnames is not recommended, as additional hosts can be added
to Symphony Cloud at any time for redundancy and scaling. Therefore, do not infer the firewall rules
from observing the network traffic. Customers whose firewall policy is incompatible with this
procedure may contact Technical Support for assistance.

IT security
As a provider of security-specific solutions, Commend has a tradition of passionate commitment to
security, both physical and digital. We are acutely aware of what is at stake, as users depend – and in
extreme cases even stake their lives – on the reliability of our systems. Where cyber security is
concerned, we make every effort to ensure cyber security best practices in the design, production and
rigorous testing of every component to rule out exploitable vulnerabilities as much as possible.
The following sections describe configuration steps required to maintain cyber security.

Password management
Using a secure password is essential to ensure basic-level protection and to prevent unauthorised
access. For this reason, ensure that you change the default password for each Commend system device
before using it for the first time. The password must comply with your company’s IT security policy and
related requirements. A good rule of thumb for a secure password is “length before complexity”.
A password should meet the following requirements:
 A minimum of 8 characters
 A mix of numbers, symbols (if applicable) and uppercase and lowercase letters
 Password should not include user names or dictionary words

A password generator can help you to generate randomised secure passwords. Online services are
available that allow you to check how often a particular password is being used, and if it complies with
security standards.

Another way to ensure a maximum of security is to change the password regularly. This is especially
important for passwords that are used on a daily basis.
Recommendation: Use a dedicated software tool for managing your passwords.

Password rules
Several functions of the VirtuoSIS intercom server can be password-protected to prevent unauthorised
use. These rules apply for assigning passwords. For configuration details, follow the links below:
Access
User account in Linux / VirtuoSIS, see page 93 All UTF-8 characters, max. length: 64.
User account management in CCT 800, see page 34 All ASCII characters, max. length: 35.

Configuration
IP connection to Intercom server, see page 74 All ASCII characters, max. length: 8.
ASCII characters 0-9, a-z, A-Z and special
Intercom server configuration, see page 53
characters (except: <, > und ´), max. length: 64.
IP station configuration, see page 142 All UTF-8 characters, max. length: 126.

Interfaces
SIP subscriber (SIP-C), see page 487 All UTF-8 characters.
All UTF-8 characters, max. length: 64.
SIP trunk (SIP-T), see page 469 (Telephone Settings and Auto Dialler mode: 0-9. #,
T; max. length: 4)

516 3.1/0923
Intercom Server Configuration IT security

Ports
In order to be able to transport user data such as audio and video, some ports of the Commend
Intercom systems must be enabled for network traffic. However, the number of enabled ports should
be reduced to an absolute minimum.

Used ports on GE300, GE800 and IS300 Intercom Servers


The following applications or configurations require unlocked ports:
 CCT 800
 ICX
 IoIP participants
 LAN / WAN network connections
 NTP / SNTP client
 RTP / RTCP streaming for recording
 SNMP / GET
 SNMP / TRAPS

For ports used by VirtuoSIS, see the product manual ”VirtuoSIS Setup Guide”: VirtuoSIS Ports.

Certificates
Public-key certificates provide security for data transmission between SIP clients, SIP trunks and serv-
ers. As a result, SIP data packages are transported encrypted via the network protocol TLS. By activat-
ing SRTP, also sensitive audio data can be transported encrypted.
The following information is included in X.509 certificates:
 Explicit name of the issuer
 Explicit name of the owner
 Period of validity from-to
 Length of the public key

3.1/0923 517
IT security Intercom Server Configuration

 Encryption algorithm RSA

Schematic illustration for encryption using certificates

GOOD TO KNOW: Naming of certificates


Commend recommends unique names for certificates, for example:
 Host certificates: “hostname_serial-number.pem”
 CAs: “issuer_usecase.crt”

GOOD TO KNOW: Determining the encryption algorithm to use


 VirtuoSIS supports state-of-the-art key lengths and encryption algorithms.
 About determining the supported encryption algorithms in VirtuoSIS, see the chapter “Asterisk CLI”
in manual “VirtuBRO”.
 Commend recommends to use elliptic curve encryption.
 For possible maximum key lengths for subscribers, see the manuals “Symphony BF” and “Sym-
phony MX”.

GOOD TO KNOW: Client certificate verification


If the client certificate verification is enabled for SIP, the certificate of SIP subscribers is checked by
VirtuoSIS when a SIP subscriber registers using TLS. This certificate verification validates the chain of
trust but does not verify the Common Name (CN) and the Subject Alternative Name (SAN) in the X.509
certificate of the subscriber.

To activate TLS and import certificates, see page 465. The instructions how to import a certificate for a
SIP client can be found in the respective product manual.

Restriction of audio blocks for IP subscriber cards


Each IP subscriber card has a maximum of 16 audio blocks (independent of the card type), which will
be distributed dynamically. An audio block is required for several functions on an IP subscriber card,
(e.g. a simplex call, 7TT conference, All Call, speech recording). The required number of audio blocks
vary from function to function and will be calculated individually for each IP subscriber card. As result,
it is possible that the maximum number of available audio blocks will be exceeded for the same
function at one IP subscriber card, but not necessarily at any other IP subscriber card. If no sufficient
number of audio blocks is available on an IP subscriber card, this function will not be supported.

Affected Intercom Server and IP subscriber cards


This restriction applies for the following Intercom Server and IP subscriber cards:
 IS 300/GE 300/GE 800
 Gx-IP32
 Gx-IP-8
 Gx-IP-4
 VirtuoSIS
 SIS-IP-8

GOOD TO KNOW: Not valid for VirtuoSIS 8.0 and newer


These restrictions only apply for
 VirtuoSIS (version 7.1 and older)
 SIS-IP-8

Affected Intercom functions


The following Intercom functions require audio blocks on an IP subscriber card:
 Call (Simplex/Duplex/OpenDuplex®) (see page 521)
 Alarm (see page 521)
 All Call or group call (see page 522)
 7T conference (see page 523)
 7TT conference (see page 524)
 6T radio conference (see page 524)
 Speech recording (IoIP or RTP) (see page 525)

NOTE:
These functions can be mixed on the same IP subscriber card. The required number of audio blocks
will be added up and not exceed a number of 16 audio blocks – otherwise, the complete
functionality cannot be guaranteed for certain functions.

 Configuration changes without restart


Configuration changes of certain Intercom subscriber functions can be applied in the Intercom Server
without a restart. The icon is displayed in the product manual “Intercom Server Configuration” next
to this feature. In the table below, the following restrictions apply to the respective Intercom Server
firmware versions:
 Feature requires no restart at configuration change
 Feature requires a restart at configuration change

NOTE:
 As of PRO 800 6.1, if configuration changes have been made, ICX synchronisation messages are
output at ICX interfaces assigned to a control desk without a warm start.

Stations with input level detection


GOOD TO KNOW: What is the purpose of an input level detection?
The input level detection is required for the automatic detection of a connected direct dialling module.
If a direct dialling module (WSDD 53V or WSDD 59V) is detected, this module can be allocated to the
respective station in the configuration software CCT 800. Further information about direct dialling
modules can be found on page 218.

The following station types have an input level detection:

1) With PRO 800 6.1 or higher, the connection of a direct dialling module is possible.

 Safe mode
If one or more errors in the Intercom Server configuration prevent it from operating properly, safe
mode always ensures a successful restart of the Intercom Server and its operation in a reduced form.
Certain configured functions are not available while the Intercom Server is in the safe mode. If the
Intercom Server is restarted in safe mode, a part of the stored Intercom Server configuration will be
disabled, but the connection between the Intercom Server and the connected PC remains active.

ATTENTION:
The firmware download (downgrade and upgrade) cannot be performed during the safe mode. The
respective Intercom Server has to be initialised first (see page 56)!

Indication of the safe mode state


The CCT 800 program will only indicate whether the Intercom Server is currently in safe mode or not.
It will not display the specific error that triggered the safe mode. The current state of the safe mode will
be displayed in the receive dialogue 1 and the card dialogue 2 in the program CCT 800.
