The 8039 SIP Video Intercom is ideal for secure business entrances, emergency intercom, and gated entrances. The Algo 8039 provides hands-free intercom capability with video, entrance security with door unlock control, rugged weatherproof design, and superior audio performance.

Fully compatible with SIP industry standards, the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will work with most hosted or enterprise SIP-base servers supporting third-party SIP endpoints.

The 8039 SIP Video Intercom is configured using central provisioning features or by accessing a web interface using browsers such as Google Chrome, Firefox, orMicrosoft Edge.

What is Included

• 8039 SIP Video Intercom

• Mounting Plate

What is not Included

• Optional 8063 IP Relay Controller

Setup and Installation

Getting Started - Quick Install & Test

Note

This guide provides important safety information which should be read thoroughly before permanently installing the product.

1. Connect the 8039 SIP Video Intercom to an IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE network switch. The backlight keypad will turn on. After about 1 minute, a beep will signal the completion of the boot process.

2. After the boot is complete, press the call button on the 8039 to hear the IP address. (Once the SIP Server field is populated in the 8039 web interface, the call button will contact the preconfigured extension when pressed.) The IP address may also be discovered by downloading the Algo locator tool to find Algo devices on your network: www.algosolutions.com/locator

3. Access the 8039 SIP Video Intercom web page by entering the IP address into a browser (Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox etc) and logging in using the default password algo.

4. Enter the IP address for the SIP server into the SIP Domain field under the BASIC SETTINGS → SIP tab.

5. Enter the SIP Extension, Authentication ID, and Password. Also enter the target Dialing Extension that the Intercom will call.

   Note

   The Authentication ID may also be called Username for some SIP servers, and in some cases may be the same as the SIP extension.

6. Press the Call Button on the 8039 Intercom, then answer the phone to communicate over the Intercom. Press the digit 6 on the phone keypad to activate the door control relay for three seconds (if applicable).

    

Installation

The 8039 SIP Video Intercom is weather protected for outdoor installation. However, if network cabling extends beyond the perimeter of the building, then adequate lightning protection is required to protect the cabling and network switch from lightning surges. No lightning protection is required by UL or CSA if the 8039 is located on the outside wall of a building and the wiring is inside the perimeter of the building.

The 8039 is wall and door frame (mullion) mountable via the supplied mounting plate:

1. Secure the mounting plate to the wall/ mullion door frame via two #8 screws.

2. Attach the 8039 into the mounting plate and secure the device in place with the attached security screw at the bottom of the mounting plate using the provided Allen wrench.

Programming and Configuration

The 8039 SIP Video Intercom is configurable using the web interface or provisioning features.

After boot up, the speaker will beep and the intercom will have obtained an IP address. If there is no DHCP server the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will default to the static IP address 192.168.1.111.

Before the 8039 is configured, the call button on the front can be pressed to play the IP address over the speaker. (Once the SIP Server field is populated on the 8039 web interface, the call button will contact the preconfigured extension when pressed.) The IP address may be discovered by downloading the Algo locator tool to find Algo devices on your network: www.algosolutions.com/locator

Enter the IP address (e.g 192.168.1.111) into a browser such as Google Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge . The web interface should be visible and the default password will be algo in lower case letters.

Wiring Connections

Network Connection

The speaker provides a RJ45 jack for network connection. A cable run from the switch can be terminated to a modular jack with connection by patch cord, or terminated with a RJ45 plug.

PoE (Power over Ethernet) must be 48V 350 mA IEEE 802.3af compliant whether provided by the network switch or injector.

There are two lights on the Ethernet jack:

Green light: On when Ethernet is working, flickers off to indicate activity on the port.

Amber light: Off when successful 100Mbps link is established. Typically on only briefly at power up.

Under normal conditions, the Amber light will turn on immediately after the Ethernet cable is first connected. This indicates that PoE power has been successfully applied. Once the device connects to the network, it will switch to the Green light instead, which will typically flicker indicating traffic on the network.

Door Control Relay

Provides both normally open and normally closed relay contacts.

Note

The 8063 IP Relay Controller can be used as an alternative more secure option for door opening control, by using a separate relay from the public-facing intercom.

Serial Control

Reserved for future use.

Door Sensor (Dry Contact Input)

An external call button can be connected as a normally open switch. When the relay is triggered, this will dial the pre-configured “Extension to Dial”.

Backlit Keypad and Call Button

The backlit keypad and call button will be steady during power up and will flash during a reset.

If enabled, when making a call, the call button light will flash rapidly, while the call is ringing at the far-end phone. Once the call is answered, the flashing will slow down.

Reset

The 8039 SIP Video Intercom can only be reset during a power up. To return all the settings to the factory default for the 8039, wait until all the backlit keys start flashing. Then press and hold the call button until the call button backlight begins a double flash pattern. Release the call button and allow the unit to complete its boot process. Do not press the call button until all the keys start flashing.

A reset will set all configuration options to factory default including the password.

Web Interface Status and Login

Web Interface Login

The web interface requires a password which is ‘algo’ by default. This password can be changed in the Admin tab after logging in the first time.

Note

Web Interface is accessed by entering 8039’s IP Address into the web browser.

It is highly recommended to change the default password if the device is directly connected to a public network.

Status

The device's Status page will be available before and after logon. The section can be used to check the device's SIP Registration status of the SIP Extension, Call Status, Proxy Status, and general MAC, IP, Netmask, Date/Time information.

Note

The Status page can be hidden when logged out for security purposes under the Advanced Settings → Admin tab.

Status Tab – Video

The video can be seen in the Status → Video tab when the user is not logged in. A separate video password can also be enabled, to allow users to access the video, but not the rest of the device settings. This password can be set in Basic Settings → Video tab, “Session Password” field. Video settings like brightness, contrast, view (Dewarped or Fisheye) are also available in the Basic Settings → Video tab.

Web Interface Basic Settings

Basic Settings Tab – SIP

SIP Server information and Credentials should be obtained from your telephone system administrator or hosted account provider. After saving the settings, see the Status tab to confirm the registration was successful.

Note

Any time changes are made to settings in the web interface the ‘Save’button must be clicked to save the changes.

SIP Domain (Proxy Server)

The IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.111) or domain name (e.g. myserver.com) of the SIP Server.

SIP Extension

Used to register the 8039 on the SIP Server.

Authentication ID

It may also be called Username for some SIP servers, and in some cases, it may be the same as the SIP extension.

Authentication Password

SIP password provided by the system administrator for the SIP account.

Extension to Dial

Enter the phone number that will be dialed when the call button is pressed. This can also be a Hunt Group number. Ensure that voicemail is not reached.

Note

The Basic Settings → Keypad tab offers additional keypad modes like playing a voice prompt when the call button is pressed and using the keypad to dial extensions or listed departments.

Basic Settings Tab – Features

Speaker Volume

Select the speaker audio level of the 8039 from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

Automatic Gain Control (AGC)

Normalizes the audio level. This ensures audio level heard at the speaker is always at a consistent level, independent of the phone that is used to answer the call.

Answer Inbound Call

Allow the 8039 to auto-answer an inbound call. By default, this functionality is activated.

Answer Tone

Select a tone to be played over the speaker when the intercom answers an inbound call. Use only the Default or a custom uploaded file. The other pre-installed tone files all contain silence at the end in order to generate ring "cadence" of 6 seconds. This silence will block the voice path for several seconds at the start of a call.

Outbound Ring Limit

This feature can be used to set a limit on how long the intercom will ring before timing out. If the call is not answered within this time period, the 8039 will go back to an idle state.

Ringback Tone

Select an audible ringback tone to be played on the 8039 speaker until the call is answered.

Allow Call Button to End Active Call

If enabled, allows the visitor to end an active call by pressing the call button.

G.722 Support

Enable or disable the G.722 codec.

Maximum Call Duration

Select the maximum call length. The call will be terminated once the maximum time is reached. In the event that a call inadvertently reaches voicemail or gets accidentally left on hold, this setting ensures that the 8039 returns on-hook.

Door Sensor Connector

External call button can be used as an input to the door sensor connector. External call button will function like the call button on the device.

Basic Settings Tab – Video

Exposure Region

Select an exposure calculation region for optimal image rendering. “Spot” method calculates exposure based on the center area of the image. “Full Frame” method uses the entire image to determine the exposure. “Centre Weighted” uses mainly the center area and a fraction of the remaining frame to compute the exposure.

Camera View

Camera view can be set to either a “Dewarped” full page view or a circular “Fisheye”.

White Balance

Select the white balance settings. “Auto” will auto-detect the light levels and auto-balance the video accordingly. Other balance choices include: Daylight 6500K and 5500K, Fluorescent, and Incandescent.

Brightness

Increase or decrease image brightness either above or below the default value.

Contrast

Increase or decrease image contrast either above or below the default value.

Sharpness

Increase or decrease image sharpness either above or below the default value.

Saturation

Select the amount of network traffic the device can use.

Request Media Bandwidth

Adds bandwidth modifiers and attributes in the SDP offer/answer.

SIP Video Capacity

This controls the video parameters included in the SIP 'Offer' that is sent when the 8039 initiates a call. Select the video capacity as supported by the video phone that will answer the calls.

SIP Video Stream

This controls the actual video stream sent by the 8039. Use ‘Auto’ mode unless a manual override is required for compatibility with legacy video phones.

Maximum Browser Sessions

Allows for a limit to be set on the number of separate browser sessions that can be open simultaneously to show the video. The setting can be “Disabled” to turn off the web video capability.

Session Passcode

This allows a separate password to be configured that allows access to only the Status → Video tab.

Basic Settings Tab – Keypad

Dial Mode – Single Number

This mode allows the 8039’s “Call” button to dial a pre-configured number, the “Extension to Dial”. There is also an option to allow all the number keys on the keypad to dial this same extension.

Dial Mode – List

This mode allows each of the 10 “number” keys to dial a different preconfigured phone number. For example, 1 for Reception, 2 for Sales, 3 for Shipping, etc.

The Call button can be configured to play a voice prompt detailing the available options to the visitor. The voice prompt can be uploaded via a custom audio file in the Advanced Settings → File Manager tab.

Dial Mode – Keypad Dial

This mode allows the keypad to be used to dial extensions directly. If an incorrect number is dialed by mistake, the “#” key can be pressed to cancel, and the extension can be dialed again.

Set the “Length of Extension to Dial”, correctly to match the extension length of your phone system.

The Call button can be set to “Dial Extension” (e.g., reception) or to “Play Voice Prompt,” giving the visitor instructions and/or a summary of main extensions to dial via the keypad.

Note

Set appropriate permissions on the phone system to ensure that a malicious visitor cannot use the intercom to dial an external number. Also ensure that a visitor will not reach voicemail to prevent the call from getting “stuck”.

Keypad Backlight

Enable or disable the Keypad’s blue backlight.

Call Button Backlight

Enable or disable the Call Button’s blue backlight.

Backlight Brightness

Configures the brightness of the Keypad and Call Button backlight if they are enabled.

Basic Settings Tab – Door Control

The 8039 contains a relay that can be used for Door Control, or it can be used with the optional 8063 IP Relay Controller (sold separately) for additional door security, as the 8063 can be located inside the building and separate from the public-facing intercom. This section allows you to configure the 8063 settings (if used), or the local door relay. For more information about the 8063, see “8063 IP Relay Controller”.

Number of Network Door Controllers

Set up to 4 network door controllers (8063s) to unlock/lock the doors.

Door Unlock Tone

Allow a tone to be played when the door is unlocked to create awareness.

DTMF Detection Type

Different DTMF detection options are given. Use the default of ‘Auto’ unless advised by Algo technical support.

Local Door Relay

Enable or disable the door control relay on the 8039.

Network Door Controller Address

IP address of the optional 8063 IP Relay Controller.

Network Door Controller Password

Used to authenticate the link between the 8039 and the 8063. Ensure that the two devices have matching passwords. Default password is algo.

Note

The Relay Module Password is used solely to secure the link between the 8039 and the 8063. It is not the same as the Momentary Open Code.

Momentary Open Code

1-4 digit DTMF code that can be used to unlock the door for a brief period of time. Leave this field blank to disable this feature.

(Default: 6)

Duration

The time period for which to unlock the door when the Momentary Open Code is entered. From ¼ to 30 seconds.

Latch Open Code

1-4 digit DTMF code that can be used to unlock the door indefinitely. Leave this field blank to disable this feature.

Latch Closed Code

1-4 digit DTMF code that will lock the door again when it is latched open. Leave this field blank to disable this feature.

Outside codes

This is a “secret” code that allows authorized visitors or employees to let themselves in without needing to call someone inside the building.

Access Code

1-8 digit codes allowed. Up to 25 codes can be entered by separating each code with a space, comma, or semicolon. Leave this field blank to disable this feature.

Basic Settings Tab – Multicast

Multicast IP Addresses

Each 8039 SIP Video Intercom has its own IP address, and shares a common multicast IP and port number (multicast zone) for multicast packets. The 8039 is able to act as a multicast Receiver, allowing it to multicast messages from a sender device over the intercom speaker.

Note

The 8039 is not meant for voice paging in large areas. Instead we recommend using the 8186 SIP Horn Speaker for outdoor or wide-area applications, and the 8180 SIP Audio Alerter or 8188 SIP Ceiling Speaker for any other indoor paging requirements.

The network switches and router see the packet and deliver it to all the members of the group. The multicast IP and port number must be the same on all the sender and Receiver units of one group. The user may define multiple zones by picking different multicast IP addresses and/or port numbers.

1. Multicast IP addresses range: 224.0.0.0/4 (from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255)

2. Port numbers range: 1 to 65535

3. By default, the 8039 Video Intercom is set to use the multicast IP address 224.0.2.60 and the port numbers 50000-50008

Make sure that the multicast IP address and port number do not conflict with other services and devices on the same network.

Multicast Page Zones

The 8039 Video Intercom supports nine “basic” multicast zones. These zones are defined by the multicast IP addresses.

Somewhat arbitrarily, these zones are defined below but may be used in other ways. The important consideration is that there is a priority hierarchy – streaming activity on a zone higher on the list, will be treated as a higher priority than a zone lower on the list – with music being the lowest priority.

• Priority

• All Call

• Zone 1

• Zone 2

• Zone 3

• Zone 4

• Zone 5

• Zone 6

• Music

“Expanded” zones can also be enabled, in the Basic Settings → Multicast tab, allowing up to 50 zones in total. These have the same behaviors as the basic zones, but are hidden by default to simplify the interface.

Multicast Mode (Receiver Selected)

If Receiver mode is enabled the 8039 intercom speaker will activate when receiving a multicast message.

Multicast Type - Regular

Select “Regular” if receiving multicast from other Algo SIP endpoint(s) and/or multicast-enabled phone(s) that use RTP audio packets.

Number of Zones

Select “basic” zones if configuring nine or fewer multicast zones or “expanded” to configure up to 50 zones. The expanded zones have the same behaviour as the basic Receiver zones, but are hidden by default to simplify the interface.

Receiver Zones

Select one or more multicast zones for the 8039 SIP Video Intercom to monitor. Note that multicast zone priority is based on the zone definition list order (top to bottom).

Multicast Type – Poly Group Paging/Push-to-Talk

The 8039 SIP Video Intercom may receive multicast paging compatible with Poly “on premise group paging” protocol.

To configure the 8039 as a Receiver to play Poly page announcements, select “Group Page” or “Push-to-Talk”. Then enter the Poly Zone (IP Address and Port) that matches the configuration of the Poly phones and Channels. The “Default Channel” is the target group in a Poly paging environment.

The Poly phone used as page audio source for the 8039(s), must be configured to use either the G.711 or G.722 audio codec. The Poly phone(s) must also be configured with the “Compatibility” setting (“ptt.compatibilityMode”) disabled in order for this codec setting to be applied.

If using a Poly phone as the Multicast sender, a tone may be set for any of the 25 Poly Groups configured on the Algo device. If an Algo device is used as a Multicast sender, a tone does not have to be set as the Algo sender will provide its own tone. Poly Group Tones can be set in Advanced Settings → Advanced Multicast tab.

Web Interface Advanced Settings

Advanced Settings Tab - Network

Protocol

DHCP is an IP standard designed to make administration of IP addresses simpler. When selected, DHCP will automatically configure IP addresses for each 8039 on the network. Alternatively the 8039 can be set to a static IP address.

VLAN Mode

Enables or Disables VLAN Tagging. VLAN Tagging is the networking standard that supports Virtual LANs (VLANs) on an Ethernet network. The standard defines a system of VLAN tagging for Ethernet frames and the accompanying procedures to be used by bridges and switches in handling such frames. The standard also provides provisions for a quality of service prioritization scheme commonly known as IEEE 802.1p and defines the Generic Attribute Registration Protocol.

VLAN ID

Specifies the VLAN to which the Ethernet frame belongs. A 12-bit field specifying the VLAN to which the Ethernet frame belongs. The hexadecimal values of 0x000 and 0xFFF are reserved. All other values may be used as VLAN identifiers, allowing up to 4094 VLANs. The reserved value 0x000 indicates that the frame does not belong to any VLAN; in this case, the 802.1Q tag specifies only a priority and is referred to as a priority tag. On bridges, VLAN 1 (the default VLAN ID) is often reserved for a management VLAN; this is vendor-specific.

VLAN Priority

Sets the frame priority level. Otherwise known as Priority Code Point (PCP), VLAN Priority is a 3-bit field that refers to the IEEE 802.1p priority. It indicates the frame priority level. Values are from 0 (lowest) to 7 (highest).

802.1x Authentication

Credentials to access LAN or WLAN that have 802.1X network access control (NAC) enabled. This information will be available from the IT Administrator.

Differentiated Services (6-bit DSCP value)

Provides quality of service if the DSCP protocol is supported on your network. Can be specified independently for SIP control packets versus RTP audio packets.

DNS Caching Mode

In "SIP" mode, only the results of DNS queries for SIP requests will be cached. In "All" mode, the results of all DNS queries will be cached.

Advanced Settings Tab – Admin

Password

Password to log into the 8039 SIP Video Intercom web interface. You should change the default password algo in order to secure the device on the network. If you have forgotten your password, you will need to perform a reset using the Reset Button in order to restore the password (as well as all other settings) back to the original factory default conditions.

For additional password security, see “Force Strong Password” below.

Confirmation

Re-enter network admin password.

Device Name (Hostname)

Name to identify the device in the Algo Network Device Locator Tool.

Introduction Section on Status Page

Allows the introduction text to be hidden from the login screen.

Show Status Section on Status Page when Logged Out

Use this option if you wish to block access to the status page when logged out. The settings and configurations, on the status page, will be hidden entirely unless you’re logged in – this feature is useful when you want only trusted users to view possible sensitive device information.

Web Interface Session Timeout

Set the maximum period of inactivity after which the web interface will log out automatically.

Log Level

Use on the advice of Algo technical support only.

Log Method

Allows the 8039 SIP Video Intercom to write to external Syslog server if the option for external (or both) is selected.

Log Server

If “Network” or “Both” is selected this is the address of the Syslog server on the network.

Web Interface Protocol

The HTTPS is always enabled on the device. Use HTTPS only to disable HTTP, then requests will be automatically redirected to HTTPS. Also note that since the device can have any address on the local network, no security certificate exists, and thus most browsers will provide a warning when using HTTPS.

Force Strong Password

When enabled, ensures that a secure password is provided for the device’s web interface for additional protection. The password requirements are:

• Must contain at least 10 characters

• Must contain at least 1 uppercase character

• Must contain at least 1 digit (0 – 9)

• Must contain at least 1 special character

Allow Secure SIP Password

Allows SIP passwords to be stored in the configuration file in an encrypted format, to prevent viewing and recovery. Once enabled, the SIP “Realm” field should be entered and all the configured Authentication Password(s) must be re-entered in the Basic Settings → SIP tab, and any other locations where SIP extension have been configured, to save the encrypted password(s).

If the Realm is changed at a later time, all the passwords will also need to be re-entered again to save the passwords with the new encryption.

To obtain your SIP Realm information, contact your SIP Server administrator (or check the SIP log file for a registration attempt). The Realms may be the same or different for all the extensions used.

SNMP Support

Additional SNMP support is anticipated for future, but the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will respond to a simple status query for automated supervision. Contact Algo technical support for more information.

System Integrity Checking

This feature verifies installed system packages to ensure they have not been tampered with by running ‘Perform Check’. Enabling this feature may cause reboots and upgrades to take 1 minute or  longer. Verification results can be found on the Status page.

Advanced Settings Tab – Time

Network time is used for logging events into memory for troubleshooting.

Timezone

Select time zone.

NTP Time Servers 1/2/3/4

The interface will attempt to use Timer Server 1 and work down the list if one or more of the time servers become unresponsive.

NTP Time Server Source

When “Use DHCP Option 42” is chosen, if an NTP Server address is provided via the DHCP Option 42, that NTP Server will be used instead of the 4 mentioned above. Alternatively, “Ignore DHCP Option 42” can be chosen to only use servers mentioned above.

Device Date/Time

This field shows the current time and date as set on the device. If testing the device on a lab network that may not have access to an external NTP server, the “Sync with browser” button can be used to temporarily set the time on the device.

Note

This time value will be lost at power down, or overwritten if NTP is currently active. Time and date are used only for logging purposes and are not typically required.

Advanced Settings Tab – Provisioning

Note

It is recommended that Provisioning Mode be set to Disabled if this feature is not in use. This will prevent unauthorized re-configuration of the device if DHCP is used.

Provisioning allows installers to pre-configure 8039 SIP Video Intercom units prior to installation on a network. It is typically used for large deployments to save time and ensure consistent setups.

The device can be provisioned via the Auto mode (where all three DHCP options (Option 66/160/150) will be automatically checked for an active provisioning server), just one of the three specified DHCP options, or a Static Server. In addition, there are four different ways to download provisioning files from a “Provisioning Server”: TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol), FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS.

For example, 8039 configuration files can be automatically downloaded from a TFTP server using DHCP Option 66. This option code (when set) supplies a TFTP boot server address to the DHCP client to boot from.

Note

DHCP must be enabled if using DHCP Option 66/160/150, in order for Provisioning to work.

One of two files can be uploaded on the Provisioning Server (for access via TFTP, FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS):

Generic (for all Algo 8039 Intercoms) algop8039.conf Specific (for a specific MAC address) algom[MAC].conf Both protocol and path is supported for Option 66, allowing for http://myserver.com/config-path to be used.

MD5 Checksum

In addition to the .conf file, an .md5 checksum file must also be uploaded to the Provisioning server. This checksum file is used to verify that the .conf file is transferred correctly without error.

A tool such as can be found at the website address below may be used to generate this file: http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5

The application doesn’t need an installation. To use the tool, simply unzip and run the application (md5) from a command prompt. The proper .md5 file will be generated in the same directory.

If using the above tool, be sure to use the “-l” parameter to generate lower case letters.

Generating a generic configuration file

1. Connect 8039 to the network.

2. Access the 8039 Web Interface Control Panel.

3. Configure the 8039 with desired options.

4. Click on the System tab and then Maintenance.

5. Click “Download” to download the current configuration file.

6. Save the file settings.txt.

7. Rename file settings.txt to algop8039.conf.

8. File algop8039.conf can now be uploaded onto the Provisioning server.

If using a generic configuration file, extensions and credentials have to be entered manually once the 8039 SIP Video Intercom has automatically downloaded the configuration file.

Generating a specific configuration file

1. Follow steps 1 to 6 as listed in the section “Generating a generic configuration file”.

2. Rename file settings.txt to algom[MAC address].conf (e.g. algom0022EE020009.conf)

3. File algom[MAC address].conf can now be uploaded to the Provisioning server.

The specific configuration file will only be downloaded by the 8039 SIP Video Intercom with the MAC address specified in the configuration file name. Since all the necessary settings can be included in this file, the 8039 will be ready to work immediately after the configuration file is downloaded. The MAC address of each 8039 SIP Video Intercom can be found on the back label of the unit.

Advanced Settings Tab – Advanced Audio

Dynamic Range Compression (DRC)

If enabled, it compresses the dynamic range of page audio to increase loudness.

Dynamic Range Compression Gain

‘Dynamic Range Compression’ must be enabled to display this setting. Higher compression gain increases distortion.

Jitter Buffer Range

The jitter buffer removes the jitter in arriving network packets by temporarily storing them. This process corrects the inconsistent delays on the network. It is recommended to use the lowest value.

Always Send RTP Media

If enabled, audio packets will be sent at all times, even during one-way paging mode. This option is needed in cases when the server expects to see audio packets at all times.

Speaker Filter

Applies a high-pass filter to the speaker output. Used to reduce audio artifacts like humming or buzzing by filtering out unwanted frequencies.

Speaker Noise Filter

Enables heavy filtering below 145Hz to reduce mains-induced noise (fans).

Microphone Filter

Applies a high-pass filter to the microphone input. Used to reduce audio artifacts like humming or buzzing by filtering out unwanted frequencies.

Microphone Noise Filter

Enables heavy filtering below 145Hz to reduce mains-induced noise (fans).

Advanced Settings Tab – Advanced SIP

SIP Transportation

Which transport layer protocol to use for SIP messages. Setting ‘SIP Transportation’ to ‘TLS’, ensures the encryption of SIP traffic.

SIPS Scheme

Only visible when ‘SIP Transportation’ set to ‘TLS’. Enabling SIPS Scheme requires the SIP connection from endpoint to endpoint to be secure.

SIP Outbound Support (RFC 5626)

Enable this option to support best networking practices according to RFC 5626. This option should generally be enabled if the Algo device is being registered with a hosted server or if TLS is being used for SIP Transportation.

Outbound Proxy

IP address for outbound proxy. A proxy (server) stands between a private network and the internet.

Register Period (seconds)

Maximum requested period of time where the 8128 SIP Strobe Light will re-register with the SIP server. Default setting is 3600 seconds (1 hour). Only change if instructed otherwise.

Media NAT

IP address for STUN server if present or IP address/credentials for a TURN server.

Server Redundancy Feature

Two secondary SIP servers may be configured. The 8039 SIP Video Intercom will attempt to register with the primary server but switch to a secondary server when necessary. The configuration allows re-registration to the primary server upon availability or to stay with a server until unresponsive.

If Server Redundancy is selected the web page will expand as shown below.

Backup Server #1

If primary server is unreachable the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will attempt to register with the backup servers. If enabled, the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will always attempt to register with the highest priority server.

Backup Server #2

If backup server #1 is unreachable the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will attempt to register with the 2nd backup server. If enabled, the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will always attempt to register with the highest priority server.

Polling Intervals (seconds)

Time period between sending monitoring packets to each server. Non-active servers are always polled, and active server may optionally be polled (see below).

Poll Active Server

Explicitly poll current server to monitor availability. May also be handled automatically by other regular events, so can be disabled to reduce network traffic.

Automatic Fallback

Reconnect with higher priority server once available, even if backup connection is still fine.

Polling Method

SIP message used to poll servers to monitor availability.

Keep-alive Method

If Double CRLF is selected the 8039 SIP Video Intercom will send a packet every 30 seconds (unless changed) to maintain connection with the SIP Server if behind NAT.

Keep-alive Interval

Interval in seconds that the CRLF message should be sent.

Use Outgoing TLS port in SIP headers

Use ephemeral port number from outgoing SIP TLS connection instead of listening port number in SIP Contact and Via headers. This is useful to connect the device to some local SIP servers, like Asterisk or FreeSWITCH.

Do Not Reuse Authorization Headers

When enabled, all SIP authorization information from the last successful request will not be reused in the next request.

Advanced Settings Tab – Advanced Multicast

Note

The settings on this tab are only available when in multicast receiver mode.

RTCP Port Selection

Select the port on which RTCP packets will be sent or received. If using the 'Next Higher Port' option, ensure that the default multicast zone definitions are modified such that zones are only assigned to even-numbered ports, leaving the next higher odd-numbered ports free for RTCP packets.

Audio Sync

When paging to the 8039 SIP Video Intercom as well as other third party devices, the low latency of the 8039 may cause the audio to lead other devices. By adding audio delay up to one second, the 8039 may be synchronized with other endpoints or telephones that have greater latency.

Zone Definition

The “Expanded” Receiver zones can be enabled/disabled in Basic Settings → Multicast. Default IP addresses and ports may be revised for any given zone in the table.

Note

Ensure that the Address and Port settings are the same for all sender and receiving devices.

Page Tone and Page Volume

When an Algo device is the multicast sender, a page tone will play on the receiving device, so it is recommended to set the Receiver tone to “None”. If a page is received from a non-Algo device that doesn’t send a tone, a tone can be inserted on the receiving device allowing for a page tone to be played prior to page audio starting.

By default, the same page volume can be set for all Receiver zones in the Basic Settings → Features tab. Unique page volumes may be revised on a per-zone basis in the table above. For instance, emergency pages can be louder on certain Receiver endpoints.

Poly Receiver Tones

A tone may be set for any of the 25 Poly Groups. If using an Algo device as a Multicast sender, it is recommended to set the Receiver tones to “None” to avoid conflicts, as the Algo devices already multicast a tone by default.

These settings are available only if the 8039 is set as a Multicast Receiver and “Poly Group Page” or “Poly Push-to-Talk” are selected in the Basic Settings → Multicast tab.

Advanced Settings Tab – Snapshot

Snapshot Mode

Disable or enable the snapshot to be triggered when the call is made.

Note

Enabling snapshot mode will disable low-power sleep mode.

8063 IP Door Controller

The 8039 can provide secure door control functionality when used with the optional Algo 8063 IP Relay Controller.

The 8063 serves as a bridge between the 8039 and peripheral hardware such as door strike.

As a door opening controller, the 8063 can be located in a secure environment to prevent tampering of the public-facing intercom, as compared to using the local Door control relay on the 8039 which would require the door strike wires to be run outside the building.

The door control feature is activated by a command from the answering telephone keypad, or entry of the door release code by a visitor via the 8039 itself.

Typical 8039/8063 Setup

PoE and Relay Connections on the back of 8063 IP Relay Controller:

1. Connect the wiring from your door strike (not included), to the Door Control relay output terminal block on the 8063 (either “Normally Open” [‘NO’] and “Common” [‘C’], or “Normally Closed” [‘NC’] and “Common” [‘C’], as appropriate for the door strike).

   For more wiring information, please visit: www.algosolutions.com/doorstrike.

2. Connect the 8063 IP Door Controller to a PoE or PoE+ network switch. The blue lights on the front will remain on until boot-up is completed, which takes about one minute.

   

To configure the 8063:

1. Find the IP address of the Algo 8063 using the Algo locator tool available from the Algo website www.algosolutions.com/locator). This tool displays all of the Algo devices available on the network, and their corresponding IP addresses. Note this address down as you will need it when you configure the 8039 for use with this device.

2. Point your browser to the above IP address. The 8063 Control Panel will be displayed.

3. Log in. The default password is algo.

4. Go to the Basic Settings → Door Control tab.

   

5. Set the Door Control Link to Enabled.

6. In the Door Control Password field, set a password that will be used for configuring the intercom for door control.

   Note

   This password down as you will be reusing it when configuring the 8039 with this device.
