ration software CCT 800:
Installation of CCT 800 – see page 25
Program interface – see page 29
User account management – see page 33

Intercom Server Configuration Configuration software 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.
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)
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 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.

GOOD TO KNOW:
Due to the various subscriber types (e.g. analogue, digital, S0 or GTEL) the pasting of
functionalities at these types is limited (if those functions can be added to these types). For
example, extended copying of a subscriber that has a camera will also include the camera at the
destination subscriber(s), if applicable.
Functions, which only work with certain card types, won‘t be copied to wrong card types (e.g. “C”
instead of “D”).
The destination client creates those functions which have not been defined yet.
Before pasting, the destination client is reset to its default configuration.
The copied data stays available until:
A new copy action replaces the data in the cache.
The file, out of which was copied, is closed.

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.
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.
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.
3.1/0923 73
Establish connection to the Intercom Server Intercom Server Configuration
CCT 800 is able to establish a connection to the Intercom Servers either via a serial or IP interface. The
service “Com-Adapter” controls the communication between computer and Intercom Server. All con-
nection settings can be configured directly in the connection settings dialogue. The COM adapter man-
ages any number of connections to the Intercom system, based on IP and RS-232. The following meth-
ods for establishing a connection to the Intercom Server are available:
IP connection to the Intercom Server – see below
Serial connection to the Intercom Server – see page 77

This change applies even if the directory for CCT 800 settings has been deleted or if the file "set-
tings.ComADAPT_server.xml" in that directory was deleted prior to starting CCT 800. The settings
directory for a CCT 800 version can be found at %localappdata%\Commend\CCT\{VERSION}, where
{VERSION} denotes the specific version number of the CCT instance that is running.

Details on the characters allowed when assigning passwords see page 516.
NOTE:
In case the PC (with CCT 800) and the Intercom Server, which should be connected, are in the same
subnet, no tunnel is established.
In case a tunnel is established, the used host IP address in the configuration dialogue is over-
written.
When closing CCT 800 the tunnel is not closed automatically. It has to be closed manually in the
search dialogue (see page 75).

Intercom Server Configuration Licencing
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.
SIP-C licences for IoIP subscribers: Replacing Symphony devices with Commend IoIP devices ena-
bles access to classic features in the Commend system while keeping the same licences.
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
displayed in the “Working as” column.

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

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
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”.

Intercom Server Configuration Launch VirtuoSIS
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).
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.
The following cards are available for VirtuoSIS and can be assigned to the slots shown below:

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.

Licencing
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).
3. Click on the button Synchronise to assign the base licence to the VirtuoSIS Master.

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.
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.
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.

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.

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

ATTENTION:
When using IP subscriber cards, restrictions possibly exist for this function (see page 520)!
ATTENTION:
Do not confuse Full Duplex with “OpenDuplex®” at DSP stations (see page 250)!
The conversation is permanently switched in both directions that means both conversation partners
can talk at the same time.
There are two possibilities of configuration:
Full duplex (only one of the conversation partners has to be in mode “Full duplex” to build up the
conversation in full duplex)
Full duplex both (both conversation partners have to be in mode “Full duplex”).
ATTENTION:
If “Full duplex” is configured for a station, the station has to be equipped with a suitable
earphone!
If “Full duplex both” is configured, the station has to be equipped with a gooseneck microphone
or similar (e.g. EE 472), because otherwise feedback would occur!

Conversations in Simplex
A conversation with a subscriber configured as simplex is always built up in simplex. The speech di-
rection is determined by configuration:
Simplex - Listen: The speech direction is switched to the selected station, the conversation partner
can answer without pressing any button. This is the most common simplex mode.
Simplex - Talk: The speech direction is switched from the selected station to the conversation
partner, the conversation partner has to press T for talking.
If both stations are configured to “Simplex Listen” or “Simplex Talk”, the mode is determined by the
calling station.

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

Speech control Intercom Server Configuration
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 :

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).

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.
Improved Duplex-switching
In rooms with lots of reverberations and at high volume with a small distance between loudspeaker
and microphone problems with switched Duplex may appear (clipping of speech). This behaviour can
be improved via special configuration.

Only a limited number of party lines are available per Intercom Server block (number of party lines
configurable). Conferences with the lowest conference channel numbers are changed automatically
into party lines in ascending order (e.g. with pre-configured conference channels 7T1 to 7T9 and
four possible party lines, the conference channels 7T1 to 7T4 are changed automatically to party
lines.
The party line is started automatically on the respective conference channel with the initiator.
Further subscribers can join this party line by dialling the button sequence 7TT, followed by the
same conference channel (e.g. 7TT1 (1-digit) or 7TT01 (2-digits) for party line 1).
By pressing the button X, the party line can be left prematurely by party line participants. The party
line cannot be cancelled by the initiator, its is cancelled when all participants have left the party line.
NOTE:
The channels configured for a conference cannot be used for radio conferences (e.g. conferences
7T1, 7T2 and 7T3 configured → the channels 6T1 to 6T3 cannot be used).

Audio mixing
Intercom stations can listen to up to 8 radio channels simultaneously. The radio channels are switched
on as usual, with 6T and the number of the channel.
ATTENTION:
Audio Mixing is NOT possible with 16 kHz feed-in! If a 16 kHz feed-in subscriber is dialled the error
tone is audible!
It is possible to switch on more than 8 channels, but only the last 8 channels can be heard (or the 8
channels with highest priority or channels with active Squelch input).
The display jumps to mix mode. The 8 channels can now be heard simultaneously.
At WS stations the 3 channels that were selected last are shown in the display (or the 4 channels with
highest priority, or channels with active Squelch input).
At a station EE 811 the 4 channels that were selected last are shown in the display (or the 4 channels
with highest priority, or channels with active Squelch input).
At a station EE 311 the channel that was selected last (or the channel with highest priority, or a
channel with active Squelch input) is shown with points at the bottom.
With the arrow buttons E and D, the desired channel can be selected. With T it is possible to talk
directly into the selected channel.
With F the selected channel can be listened to separately (display indication of “single mode” like
when switching on a single channel, see page 295). The reception of this single channel stays active for
a configurable time, then “mix mode” is activated again.
A single channel can be switched off by selecting it in mix mode and pressing button X for one second.
With 6T0 all channels are switched off.
Volume
The volume for the radio channels is set with the arrow buttons E and D and saved with F. The
settings stay active until reception is cancelled with “6T0”. By default, the configured volume in the
field Radio active at Subscriber > Audio-Features > tab 6T Feedback, Radio, Headset is used.
Volume for Single Mode: Select a channel with F; the display has to be in single mode.
Volume for Mix Mode: The display has to be in mix mode and no channel may be selected (selection
can be deactivated with X and activated with F).
NOTE:
Settings of the mix mode volume influence the single mode volumes.

Public address (PA) Intercom Server Configuration
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).
ATTENTION:
Configured output contacts require memory in the main memory of the Intercom Server! A list of
the memory capacity can be found on page 549!
NOTE:
Several outputs can be configured for the same subscriber with either the same or different codes.
Per subscriber, 339 definitions for attendant contacts are possible (as of PRO 800 1.1 see page 548). One
definition is:
One or more activations at Attendant contacts > sub-folder subscriber > tab Active at.
One entry at Attendant contacts > sub-folder subscriber > tab PA-Numbers.
One entry at Attendant contacts > sub-folder subscriber > tab Call Number/Function.
Extended PA codes
It is possible to enter wildcards for PA codes to increase the available number range.
Example: 2***, 33***, 567*
Application
For telephone interfaces G-TEL / S0 / IAX for direct dialling of extensions in PABXs.
NOTE:
PA attendant contacts are only switched when a full PA number is dialled (not when a number within a
range is dialled).

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)!

priority) fades an already taken over alarm with high priority until the new alarm is taken over. In order
to avoid this, it is possible to configure that an alarm with low priority is indicated with buzzer only for
a short time if the receiver already listens to another alarm. If this alarm is cancelled, the new alarm is

By activating the chime signal input e.g. by means of a call button, ringing at a group of Intercom
stations can be initiated. A subscriber of this group can now dial to the door station and open the door.
A door station can also call to a group of stations. The groups are the same as the max. 90 groups of
group call. The call is taken over with 8T + group no., with F or with T. During the conversation the
door can be opened by after dialling a configurable button:
Ringing at group 0:

Acknowledged calls (e.g. via suppressed buzzer) are not transferred after time!
The status “absent” for the control desk is active, as soon as all configured call transfers are
expired (longest configured transfer time)!
If an incoming privacy call will be transformed into a normal call at a control desk, a call transfer
by using the function “Call transfer direct dialling” (see page 351) is not possible!

Day/night transfer
A control desk can be switched to night-time mode with a code:
9499: Switch off (nighttime operation).
9490: Switch on (daytime operation).
When switching off with “9599”, all transfers previously defined at the control station will not be
active any more after switching on again. This code can be dialled as follows:
Direct dialling at the control desk (the code has to be defined by Direct Dialling, which makes it
possible to entitle single stations for switching off).
Select from the function list B at a station EE811.
Turning the key switch of a control desk EE880.

Certain control desk calls will not be distributed:
Converted door calls (see page 361),
Calls without a buzzer (call type 10, 11, 13, 15),
Parked calls (call type 3).
Certain control desk calls remain displayed at the control desk after the distribution:
Reactivated calls after time,
Parked calls (call type 3),
Acknowledged calls that remain visible.
If one or more control desks within the distribution chain have a call number more than 4 digits
long, only a maximum of seven control desks can be used for the call distribution.
Sequence: In this drop-down list, the control desk can be selected, to which the incoming control
desk call is transferred. The call is transferred, if the control desk is neither busy nor logged out
(when a user login is configured, see page 198) and does not have a line fault. Select an option:
Next call first desk: The new activated control desk call will be transferred to the first available con-
trol desk in the distribution chain.
Next call next desk: The new activated control desk call will be transferred to the first next higher
available control desk in the distribution chain (based on the last activated control desk).

NOTE:
No headset can be used at the same time when the function is used.
NOTE:
In order for calls to be carried out with the volume configured for conversations in “Audio Fea-
tures”, the subscriber must have the “External Handset” function activated. Otherwise, conversa-
tions will be carried out with the volume “Handset”.
ATTENTION:
In case a not galvanically isolated loudspeaker is used at the EP output of a subscriber, the check-
box ext. handset installed (subscriber > station properties > tab handset) has to be set for
the subscriber. If this checkbox is not activated, the Intercom Server changes the volume from Open
Duplex to handset; this also means that the internal loudspeaker changes the volume, if there is a
difference between the volume levels for conversation and handset!
3.1/0923 363
DSP function Intercom Server Configuration
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.
Relay Transfer EB2E2A: With this setting, the previously described functionality of the Function Re-
lay 1 can be redirected to an EB2E2A. The redirection can be set to the device output OUT1 or both
OUT1 + OUT2 outputs.
ATTENTION:
Only one EB2E2A may be used. This can be optionally connected to the Intercom module or the IP
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.

followed by a gooseneck and an external microphone.
NOTE:
This function is available with:
Station firmware min. V02.5
DSP 900A min. V05.5
DSP 800B min. V01.7.
IoIP device V7.0
Check only once: Activate this checkbox to carry out the surveillance out only once.
Loudspeaker-/Microphone Surveillance retry time [s]: In this field, the interval for the three
repetitions of the white noise in the case of a fault can be entered (max. 255 seconds).
Loudspeaker-/Microphone Surveillance volume: In this drop-down list, the volume of the white noise
can be selected. The white noise has to be loud enough to be received by the microphone, but may
not be so loud as to cause overdrive (depending on the distance between loudspeaker and
microphone and on the loudspeaker’s volume). See the following examples:
Loudspeaker LS1, distance loudspeaker/microphone about 15 cm (5.9“): Volume “4”.
EE 61AC: Volume “2” (at centre position of potentiometer for volume).
EE 311, EE 811, ECCT 80061, ECCT 80062: Volume “~4”.
In case of a higher ambient noise level, the volume of the tone has to be increased (if necessary).
Reduction -18dB: Activate this checkbox to decrease the volume of the terminal during the
surveillance by 18dB.
Red Lamp: Activate this checkbox to activate the multifunctional LED of the respective subscriber
during the surveillance.
NOTE:
A call request has to be configured for the respective DSP station to a control desk (see page 335).
3.1/0923 365
DSP function Intercom Server Configuration
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.
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.
NOTE:
This checkbox has to be activated when the behaviour of the SA101 is required.
Red lamp: In this drop-down list, the status of the red lamp can be selected when audio monitoring
is enabled. The following states are available:

General
The software of the GE 300/GE 800 offers optimal and low-priced control of a video switcher. During a
conversation to an Intercom station with camera, the video is automatically switched to the monitor.
With control desks the cameras can also be switched on during call requests or input messages.
ATTENTION:
Configured video connection requires memory in the main memory of the Intercom Server! A list of
the memory capacity can be found on page 549!
Monitors
Each Intercom station (control desk) can have one or several allocated monitors, but the same monitor
cannot be allocated to more than one Intercom station. Each station can have allocated a maximum of
9 monitors. There are three types of monitors:
Main monitor: Reserved for indication of the conversation partner (also busy calls or private calls).
Preview monitors (the number is configurable): For indication of call requests and input messages
(only for control desks).
Observation monitors (the number is configurable): For static connection of cameras. Also the main
monitor or the preview monitors can be used as observation monitors.
Cameras
A camera can be allocated to each Intercom station or input. It is also possible to switch cameras which
are not allocated to an Intercom station or input. Each camera can be switched to several monitors at
the same time (depending on the design of the video switcher).
Video WS series
The configuration of “WS video clients” (camera, colour TFT display) is not described in this document.

Video Intercom Server Configuration
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.
388 3.1/0923
Intercom Server Configuration Video
NOTE:
The following subscribers can be used as slaves:
All non-audio clients
WS TM
Conductor
If the drop-down list Slave 1 is grayed out for a participant, it can no longer be used as a slave
(e.g. because it is assigned to another participant as a slave).
The numbering of the monitors is structured in a hierarchical manner: the host participant has
“monitor 1”, the slave participants from “monitor 2” upwards. If Mirror main monitor is activat-
ed, “slave 1”, i.e. “monitor 2”, serves as a mirror monitor.
NOTE:
Only one main, preview or observation monitor may be configured for a subscriber.

Speech recording Intercom Server Configuration
Speech recording
The transmitted audio signals of a microphone or loudspeaker of a station can be combined to a single
signal and saved by a recording subscriber. Recording is possible for a conversation, alarm, group call,
All Call, Simplex conference or OpenDuplex® conference. The following types of speech recording are
available:
Speech recording of IoIP audio signals – see page 391
Speech recording via RTP – see page 394
Requirements
The following feature levels are required:
Recording subscriber:
Recorded subscriber:
Feature PRO 800 4.0 – Speech recording of subscribers with feature level B
Subscribers to be recorded must have feature level “B”.
Restrictions
If the recorder (e.g. IP, RTP server or AUD) and the recorded subscriber are not located within the
same Intercom Server (except for RTP direct from device), two additional channels are required (4x
PCM with GEV, CNET-E1 and CNET-W).
When using IP subscriber cards, restrictions possibly exist for this function (see page 520).
In case an Intercom Server fails and cancels the conversation (e.g. due to a connection failure or in
case of voltage failure), the recording will stop automatically. If the Intercom Server containing the
recorder fails, an ongoing conversation (e.g. with mandatory recording) will be cancelled.
Recording over a network is not possible with S0 cards.

ATTENTION:
For the drop-down lists Conference and OpenDuplex®conference, a restart of the respective
Intercom Server is required after the configuration has been changed!
It is only possible to record OpenDuplex®conferences with up to eight participants (instead of one
initiator and up to eight receivers) as the recording subscriber can only record eight audio signals
at the same time!
3. Optional: Activate the checkbox Mandatory recording to mandatory record the respective
conversation type.
NOTE:
Only for Intercom Server GE 200 and GE 700: Recording of a conversation between 2 analogue
subscribers within one Intercom Server is not possible.
Recording with the function “Reception of multiple radio conferences” is not possible with
Gx-AUD cards. Only the first channel is recorded.
The link of a subscriber to an active party line conference is delayed until a free recorder channel
is available (with busy tone).
For conversation converted to a OpenDuplex® conference, mandatory recording is not possible.
I.e. in this case, the configuration will be ignored and the OpenDuplex® conference will be started.

Pre-recorded audio files can be recorded for up to 30 seconds. With 8 MB of available flash memory,
individual files may contain a maximum of 90 or 180 seconds of recorded audio.
Up to 120 pre-recorded audio files can be saved per card.
When using cards with large-sized memory (8 MB), pre-recorded audio files can be recorded until
the limit of the available storage has exceeded. If the mark of 6 MB has been exceeded, pre-recorded
audio files can only be deleted with the pre-recorded audio client in CCT 800 (see page 411), because
the remaining storage is used as buffer.
When using cards with low-sized memory (2 MB), pre-recorded audio files can only be deleted or
overwritten with the pre-recorded audio client in CCT 800 (see page 411).
During recording with the 9T01 function, system-based audio messages (e.g, announcements) can-
not be played back at the recording and target station simultaneously. In addition, it may corrupt the

Feature level D is required for subscribers that are recording pre-recorded audio files for remote
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

Network monitoring
Any desired input in the networked system can be used for indication of connection errors. At the input
level “short” is simulated when an error occurs, this means an input message has to be defined to a
desired control desk.
ATTENTION:
Network monitoring is only possible within the same WAN region!
Different groups of Intercom Servers can be defined for monitoring. This has the advantage, that
Group 1: For example, Intercom Servers, which are connected via S0, can be defined with longer
polling times, in order to prevent high connection costs due to constant connection initiation.
Group 2: For Intercom Servers it is possible to define shorter polling times (e.g. via CNET-W).
NOTE: Restrictions
At Intercom Servers connected via S0, the time for build-up of connection has to be observed.
The answer time is not used at NET networks.
V24 - call number: In this drop-down list, an interface can be selected for the respective group, to
which an Alive message (“00 42 00 D1010000 A4”) with the respective polling values is sent. If the
answer message (“00 40 00 D1010000 A4”) is not received within the entered time in the field
Waiting time, the level “short” is simulated at the respective input.

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
sent (e.g. dynamic destination routing in an IP network).

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.

Configuration
In order to enable SNMP monitoring for LAN/WAN connections within an Intercom Server, the trusted
host IP address and subnet mask (IP or network address plus netmask) has to be configured via
CCT 800. In order to enable traps as well, up to two trap destinations can be configured (see page 440).
Traps
Independently from the values of the MIB, so called “traps” are sent. A “trap” is an unrequested
message of an agent to the management station, reporting that an event has occurred, e.g. reboot of
the IP subscriber. For the following events, traps are sent from the agent to the management station:
Reboot
For each reboot of the agent a trap to the management station is sent. Warm- and cold-start sends
different traps.

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
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.
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”).

CCT 800 min. 4.1
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:

configuration is still possible, provided at least CCT 800 4.1 is used. In order to deactivate this
dialogue, go to Options > Settings > tab General and deactivate the checkbox Show hint
dialogue if no licence is available.
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”.

Intercom Server Configuration Logic module
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

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.

To prevent issues, it's important to assign unique server IDs in systems with multiple instances.
For systems with several instances that use a SIP trunk (SIP-T card) or a Symphony Bridge (SYM-

Symphony Bridge Intercom Server Configuration
The default value “incoming call” dedicates the channel for use in calls from Symphony Cloud to
call targets on the Intercom server to avoid busy situations.
NOTES:
Make sure to maintain a balanced ratio between channels that are reserved for incoming calls
(incoming) and those that are assigned to Symphony Cloud contacts (outgoing).
If all channels are set to Symphony Cloud contacts (used outgoing), then the first channel in idle is
used for the incoming call. This may lead to a busy situation for the assigned Symphony Cloud
contact.
Check the ratio by navigating to Interfaces > SYM-BRIDGE > Bridges. See the column Channel

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

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.
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

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)!
