Managing Power Losses

Maximum recommended length (in feet) for the number of 8 Ohm speakers on a wire pair to maintain a volume loss of less than 5dB. Once the length limit has been reached for the wire gauge used, if additional speakers are needed, start back at the 40-IP with a 2nd parallel wire run. If the length limit is reached again, start a 3rd run, etc. See DOD 895 for an example.

Note 1: Mount the 40-IP close to where the other speakers are installed to minimize the speaker wire run lengths.
Note 2: Using half the recommended distance or half as many speakers per run will keep the volume lost limited to 3db.
Note 3: Doubling up the wires will allow double the length, or reduce the amount of volume loss.
Note 4: Heavier gauge wire, fewer speakers per run, and shorter runs will all minimize volume loss.

Definitions

Client: A computer or device that makes use of a server. As an example, the client might request a particular file from the server.
DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. In this procedure, the network server or router takes note of a client’s MAC address and assigns an IP address to allow the client to communicate with other devices on the network.
DNS Server: A DNS (Domain Name System) server translates domain names (ie: www.vikingelectronics.com) into an IP address.
Ethernet: Ethernet is the most commonly used LAN technology. An Ethernet Local Area Network typically uses twisted-pair wires to achieve transmission speeds up to 1Gbps.
Host: A computer or device connected to a network.
Host Name: A hostname is a label assigned to a device connected to a computer network that is used to identify the device in various forms of network communication.
Hosts File: A file stored in a computer that lists hostnames and their corresponding IP addresses with the purpose of mapping addresses to hosts or vice versa.
Internet: A worldwide system of computer networks running on IP protocol that can be accessed by individual computers or networks.
IP: Internet Protocol is the set of communications conventions that govern the way computers communicate on networks and on the Internet.
IP Address: This is the address that uniquely identifies a host on a network.
LAN: Local Area Network. A LAN is a network connecting computers and other devices within an office or building.
Lease: The amount of time a DHCP server reserves an address it has assigned. If the address isn’t used by the host for a period of time, the lease can expire and the address can be assigned to another host.
MAC Address: MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address, also called a hardware address or physical address, is a unique address assigned to a device at the factory. It resides in the device’s memory and is used by network equipment to send data packets to the correct IP address. You can find the MAC address of your 40-IP speaker printed on a white label just above the PoE LAN port (see page 4).
Router: A device that forwards data from one network to another. In order to send information to the right location, routers look at IP Address, MAC Address, and Subnet Mask.
RTP: Real-Time Transport Protocol is an Internet protocol standard that specifies a way for programs to manage the real-time transmission of multimedia data over either unicast or multicast network services.
Server: A computer or device that fulfills requests from a client. This could involve the server sending a particular file requested by the client.
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP): This is a signaling communications protocol, widely used for controlling multimedia communication sessions such as voice and video calls over Internet Protocol (IP) networks. The protocol defines the messages that are sent between endpoints, which govern establishment, termination, and other essential elements of a call.
Static IP Address: A static IP Address has been assigned manually and is permanent until it is manually removed. It is not subject to the Lease limitations of a Dynamic IP Address assigned by the DHCP Server. The default static IP Address is: 192.168.154.1
Subnet: A portion of a network that shares a common address component. On TCP/IP networks, subnets are defined as all devices whose IP addresses have the same prefix. For example, all devices with IP addresses start with 100.100.100.  would be part of the same subnet. Dividing a network into subnets is useful for both security and performance reasons. IP networks are divided using a subnet mask.
TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol is the suite of communications protocols used to connect hosts on the Internet.
TCP/IP uses several protocols, the two main ones being TCP and IP. TCP/IP is built into the UNIX operating system and is used by the Internet, making it the de facto standard for transmitting data over networks.
TIP: Telephone Internet Service Provider
WAN: Wide Area Network. A WAN is a network comprising a large geographical area like a state or country. The largest WAN is the Internet.
Wireless Access Point (AP): A device that allows wireless devices to connect to a wired network using Wi-Fi, or related standards. The AP usually connects to a router (via a wired network) as a standalone device, but it can also be an integral component of the router itself.
Wireless Repeater (Wireless Range Extender): takes an existing signal from a wireless router or access point and rebroadcasts it to create a second network. When two or more hosts have to be connected with one another over the IEEE 802.11 protocol and the distance is too long for a direct connection to be established, a wireless repeater is used to bridge the gap.

Features Overview

See the MANAGING POWER LOSS section on page 2.

Mounting

The 40-IP Ceiling Speaker is intended to be mounted in a T-bar acoustic tile, gypsum ceiling or wall.
An optional T-Bar support bracket (SA-TBA) is available that can transfer the speaker weight onto the T-bar rails. Installation instructions are provided with the support bracket. The metal protective speaker grill must be removed to access the four Phillips head screws that operate the four clamps. A small wire speaker grill removal tool is provided to remove the grill. The clamp screws must be sufficiently loose to allow clamps to rotate and clear the ceiling material thickness. When tightened, the clamps are locked to prevent rotating. Removal of the speaker from the ceiling requires the clamps to be sufficiently loosened before they can rotate in to pass through the 9.5” hole required in the ceiling. The wiring connections are easiest made prior to mounting if possible. A network connection is made by inserting an RJ45 plug into the jack on the side of the housing. Wire connections for relay input, switch input, speaker output, and line-level output (if used) are made using the 4 positions pluggable terminal block provided.
The backbox helps prevent plenum dust from entering the enclosure. With connections made, lift the housing into the ceiling and tighten the 4 clamps using a #2 Phillips screwdriver until snug. After installation and testing the speaker grill can then be fastened by adding grill adhesive (provided with grill removal tool) to the 4 edges of the grill then gently working the speaker grill into its friction fit position and ensuring it is evenly flush to the housing around the edge. The speaker grill is intentionally tight to prevent falling from the ceiling. A speaker grill removal tool supplied with the 40-IP Ceiling Speaker can be used to remove the grill. If lost, a small Allen key or heavy-duty paperclip bent into an L shape can be used to remove the grill by pulling close to the edge.

2. Click 40-IP in the search results
3.  Scroll down the page to Downloads, click IP Programming Software
4. Install the programming software by saving or opening the file and then clicking on setup Viking IP Programming.exe
5. Follow the prompts on your screen to complete the software installation
6. To start the Viking IP Programming application, click on the Viking IP Programming icon on your desk top. The main screen will appear, allowing the user to program any 40-IP connected to that LAN.

Note: PC must be connected to the same LAN as the 40-IP.

A. Connect/Disconnect
Open the “Viking IP Programming” software on the PC and the start screen shown below will appear. Any Viking IP products that are connected to the network will appear on the list. Simply select the 40-IP on the list and click on the “Connect” button at the bottom or double-click the selected speaker. If no username and password have been programmed and the security code of the selected unit is still set to default (845464), the PC software will not require entering a username, password, or security code to connect to the 40-IP. If the 40-IP has been programmed with a username and password, a pop-up window will ask for the username followed by the password. If the unit’s security code has been changed from “845464”, it will then prompt for the correct security code. 40-IP’s have a default name of “VIKING_MK64_Vik02”, so if many 40-IP’s are connected to the same network and all have the default name, MAC addresses must be used to identify each 40-IP. When finished programming, click on the “Disconnect” button at the bottom. Closing the program will also automatically disconnect the unit.

Programming Features Index

Programming Features

1. Unit Name
   Up to a 31 character unit name can be assigned to the 40-IP being programmed.
2. SIP Server
   Enter the IP address or URL of your SIP server or service provider in this field. The SIP server IP address is limited to 74 characters. Note: If an alternate SIP server IP address is programmed, the IP address for the SIP server and alternate SIP server will be limited to 31 characters. Note: If the outbound proxy is not required, enter the SIP server IP address into the Outbound Proxy field.
3. Peer to Peer Settings
   When set to Peer to Peer mode, a SIP server is not used. The unit should be programmed with a Static IP Address and Username, a password is not used. Caller ID can be programmed if needed. Simply call the unit by entering the programmed “…(Static IP address for the unit)”. The static IP address is normally programmed into a page button on the VoIP telephones.
4. Outbound Proxy
   If your SIP provider requires an outbound proxy IP address enter it in the Outbound Proxy field. If the outbound proxy is not required enter the SIP server IP address into the Outbound Proxy field. Note: If not required, this field must match your SIP server IP address.
5. Authentication ID
   If your SIP provider requires an Authentication ID, enter it in the Authentic. ID field. If Authentication ID is not required, leave this field blank.
6. Register Fails (Re-Resolve or Alternate Server)
   When registered to a SIP server in the event that registration is lost you can program the unit to re-resolve using the current SIP server IP address or route pages through an alternate SIP server. With Alternate Server selected enter the IP address of the alternate SIP server in the field next to the Register Fails to drop down box. Note: With an alternate SIP server IP address programmed, the IP address for the SIP server and alternate SIP server will be limited to 31 characters.
   
7. Security Code
   The security code allows the user/installer to program the 40-IP with a PC and the required ‘Viking IP Programming” software. If the security code is left as default, the PC software won’t require entering a security code when connecting to the 40-IP. It is recommended that the factory set security code be changed. The security code can be set back to default by holding the Reset button while the 40-IP powers up. See section D on page 9 for details. It can also be defaulted by connecting to the unit with the IP Programming Software and clicking on the “Clear Speaker Settings” button on the “Alarm / Firmware” tab. Factory Setting: 845464
   Note: The security code must be 6 digits and cannot include a ✱ or #.
8. Access Code
   The Access Code is primarily used along with the “Auto Answer Secure” Inbound Call Mode to force inbound SIP page callers to dial the Access Code before they can make a SIP page. The Access Code also comes into play when using the optional RC-4A relays to open a door or gate. When you call the 40-IP and the unit automatically answers the call (see Programming section 22), you must dial the Access Code before you are allowed to operate the door strike relays, as extra security on inbound calls. Once a tenant has entered the correct Access Code, 2 beeps are heard and the user can now enter any “Operation Commands” (see Operation section C). The Access Code can be disabled if this basic security is not required. Factory Setting: 123456
   Note: The Access Code can be 1 – 6 digits in length and cannot include a ✱ or # or match the numbers used for the Security Code.
9. Multicast Page Type
   Multicast page Type needs to be selected under the Speaker Settings tab (see Picture on page 13). Select Standard or Polycom as the source of multicast paging. If Polycom is selected as the source, the Codes / Paging screen will change to show its options (shown below).
   Factory Setting: Standard (shown on page 11)
   
10. SIP Page Priority over Multicast Page
    Incoming 40-IP SIP call audio streams can be programmed to have priority over any of the 10 standard Multicast paging groups. Simply use the “Sip Page Priority Level” drop-down menu to select which Multicast group you want SIP calls to have priority over. Factory Setting: “0” (SIP is the highest priority).
    When Polycom is selected as the Multicast Page Type, the “SIP Page Priority Level” can be set to “Polycom” or “None”.
    See the following tables for the order of priorities with each set. As shown, Polycom Group 25 multicast is the highest priority. The priority options allow you to determine the priorities for Polycom Groups 1 through 24 multicast signals and SIP paging. Factory Setting: Polycom

    Paging Priorities (SIP Page Priority Level set to “Polycom”)	Paging Priorities (SIP Page Priority Level set to “None”)
    Polycom Group 25	Polycom Group 25
    SIP Paging	Polycom Groups 1-24
    Polycom Groups 1-24	SIP Paging
    Line In Audio Source	Line In Audio Source

11.  Standard or Polycom Multicast Paging
    Standard
    When using standard Multicast Paging, up to 10 standard multicast paging groups can be programmed into each 40-IP speaker. Each multicast group is defined by a multicast address and port number. Each multicast group is assigned a priority, allowing simultaneously arriving pages to be serviced based on importance. A timeout check box can be selected for each paging group. See Multicast Page Length Time Out under Speaker Settings to adjust the timeout from 1 to 255 seconds. Only one timeout time can be programmed for all Multicast groups. By default groups 0-8 have the timeout enabled, group 9’s timeout is disabled. This is useful for background music.
    Assigning Priority to standard multicast
    The 40-IP will prioritize simultaneous Multicast audio streams according to their priority in the Paging Sources list.
    Group 0 will have the highest priority while group 9 will have the lowest priority. Group 9 is useful for a low priority stream such as background music. Group 0 is useful for high priority streams such as emergency messages.
    The multicast paging groups can also be used for up to ten different paging zones for receiving audio streams. A paging zone can consist of one or many 40-IP multicast speakers. There is no limit to how many speakers can be in a given paging zone. Each multicast group is defined by a multicast address and port number. Each multicast group is assigned a priority, allowing simultaneously arriving pages to be serviced based on importance.
    Polycom
    Polycom IP phones send multicast audio to a specific IP address and port. A total of 25 groups can be used, with group 25 generally reserved for an emergency broadcast. Set the Multicast Page Type to “Polycom” (“Speaker Settings” tab). The Viking IP programming page will then show “Polycom Paging Source and Group Subscriptions” on the “Codes/Paging” tab. Polycom phones will default to IP address 224.0.1.116 and port 5001 for multicast.
    Under “Polycom Paging Source and Group Subscriptions”, enter the IP address and port you chose in the Polycom IP phone as “Multicast IP address” and “port” (Paging/PTT Configuration page). Select the paging groups the 40-IP should subscribe to. Any multicast audio sent to the correct IP address, port number, and a subscribed group will be heard from both the Speaker and Line Out terminals. Group 1 is the lowest priority and group 25 is the highest. The Volume and Timeout can be selected globally, although the timeout does not affect group 25.
    Factory Setting: All Groups selected
12. Multicast Paging Volume
    The volume of each individual standard multicast page can be adjusted from 0 – 19. When Polycom paging is used, the paging volume is set globally for all 25 groups. Factory Setting: 1
    
13. Relay Disabled / External
    The Relay must be set to “External” for secure relay control installations when using a Viking remote model RC-4A relay controller to activate the door strike/gate controller (see page 19). Factory Setting: Disabled
14. Relay Mode
    Note: The 40-IP does not have a built-In relay. If relay control is required, an optional RC-4A relay controller can be used with the 40-IP.
    Door Strike Mode: When programmed for Door Strike Mode the relay is intended for door strike, maglock or gate control.
    Ring Mode: When programmed for Ring Mode the relay will continuously activate while the 40-IP’s extension is called and the 40-IP is set to loud ring (see Programming sections 22 and 36). This mode is useful for activating a Viking model SL-2 strobe light, etc.
    Ring Flash Mode: When programmed for Ring Flash Mode the relay will momentarily turn on and off in a 400ms on/off cadence while the 40-IP’s extension is called and the 40-IP is set to loud ring (see Programming sections 22 and 36). This mode is useful for activating a Viking LPL-1 Remote Visual Indicator, etc.
    Paging Mode: When programmed for Paging Mode the relay will activate continuously for the duration of any SIP or Multicast page. This mode is useful for triggering an external amp.
    Factory Setting: Door Strike
15. Relay Activation Command (Relay Mode must be set to “Door Strike”)
    The one or two-digit code stored in the Relay Activation Command is the touch-tone command that the person calling the 40-IP must enter on their phone in order to momentarily activate the RC-4A relay to control a doorstrike, mag-lock, gate controller, or another device. The code can contain the characters 0 – 9, # or ✱. The code cannot match a relay latching or toggle command (✱1, ✱0). The code must be entered while the remote phone is communicating with the Speaker. Factory Setting: ✱✱ Note: If the access code is programmed it must be entered before controlling relays.
    If this security is not needed, leave the access code blank.
16. Relay Activation Time (Relay Mode must be set to “Door Strike”)
    The value stored in the Relay Activation Time is the amount of time the RC-4A relay will be energized after a correct momentary touch-tone command is entered. This number can range from 0.5 – 99 seconds. Factory Setting: 5 seconds
17. Relay Buzz Volume (Relay Mode must be set to “Door Strike”)
    The relay activation tone is a buzzing sound that is heard from the speaker when the door strike relay is activated.
    After the calling party enters the correct relay activation command, the calling party will hear 2 short confirmation beeps and the speaker will output a buzzing sound (relay activation tone) while the door strike relay is activated. The tone (buzz) length will match the relay activation time up to a maximum of 5 seconds. The tone (buzz) can be programmed to three different volume settings 1 = Low, 2 = Medium, 3 = High or it can be disabled. When Disabled the confirmation beeps will not be heard. Factory Setting: 3
18. Relay Latch Commands (Relay Mode must be set to “Door Strike”)
    The Operation Commands (✱0 to ✱1) to Un-Latch or Latch the relay are enabled. These can be entered on an Inbound call after the access code is dialed (if programmed).
    When set to “Disabled” the Operation Commands (✱0 to ✱1) to Un-Latch or Latch the relay are disabled. Disabling the Latch commands can be useful in applications where you want to eliminate the possibility of inadvertently entering a latch command leaving a gate open/closed, etc. The momentary relay activation command is still  allowed. Factory Setting: Enabled
19. SIP Paging Volume
    The SIP Paging Volume can be set from 0 – 19, 0 = lowest volume setting, 19= highest volume setting. Adjusting this will set the volume level for SIP Paging. Factory Setting: 1
20. Ring Volume
    When the Inbound Call Mode (see Programming section 22) is set to Ring, the 40-IP will output a loud ring when it is called. The volume level of the loud ring can be adjusted from 0 – 19. Factory Setting: 5
21. SIP Page Length Timeout
    This feature selects the maximum length of time that SIP Page calls can be connected. Programmable in increments of 1 minute up to a maximum of 9 minutes or disabled.  With the call length disabled, the 40-IP speaker must rely on a call-ended signal or touch-tone # to hang up. Factory Setting: 3 minutes
22. Multicast Page Length Timeout
    The Paging Length Time Out can be programmed from 1 – 255 seconds in one-second increments. The Time Out can also be disabled, allowing any length of Multicast page or continuous background music. When using standard Multicast Paging, a timeout checkbox can be individually enabled or disabled for each multicast paging group (on the “Codes/Paging” tab). When using Polycom Multicast Paging, the timeout checkbox enables the timeout globally on groups 1 through 24. There is no timeout for a page to the emergency group 25. Factory Setting: 180 seconds.
23. Inbound Call Mode
    The Inbound Call Mode determines how the 40-IP handles incoming SIP calls. One option is to generate a loud ring sound through the speaker. The 40-IP can also auto answer the call, to allow remote control of the relay and the ability to transmit a page. The “secure” option for an auto-answer requires the callers to dial the access code in order to transmit a page. Factory Setting: Auto Answer
    Disabled – Inbound SIP calls are not allowed.
    Auto Answer – Inbound SIP calls are auto answered on the first ring and can page over the speaker.
    Auto Answer Secure – Inbound SIP calls are auto answered and the caller must dial the access code in order to make a page from the unit.
    Ring: In the “Ring” mode the speaker will not automatically answer an incoming call but will output a loud ring signal out of the speaker in a factory-programmed 2 seconds on, 4 seconds off ring pattern. There are 4 available ring cadences.
24. Ring Cadence
    When the 40-IP is set to loud ring on incoming SIP calls, you can select the ring cadence of the loud ring sound. It can
    be programmed to one of four different cadences. Factory Setting: Normal Ring
    Normal Ring (single ring: 2 seconds ON, 4 seconds OFF) factory setting
    Double Ring (double ring: 1 second ON, 0.5 second OFF, 1 second ON, 3.5 seconds OFF)
    Short-Short-Long (triple ring: 0.5 second ON, 0.5 second OFF, 0.5 second ON, 0.5 second OFF, 1 second ON, 3 seconds OFF)
    Short-Long-Short (triple ring: 0.5 second ON, 0.5 second OFF, 1 second ON, 0.5 second OFF, 0.5 second ON, 3 seconds OFF)
25. LED Mode
    The LED on the 40-IP can be programmed to one of three different modes. Factory Setting: Paging OFF Mode: In this mode the LED will not light during normal operation. It will only light (blink) if it cannot register with the programmed SIP server or while manually resetting all network parameters to factory default. This is useful as an alarm to show that the speaker is not registered.
    On Mode: The LED will remain ON when the unit is powered and registered. The LED will flash if registration is lost and the alarm is active.
    Paging Mode: The LED will remain OFF in the idle state. The LED will light steady during SIP or Multicast paging.
26.  SIP Line Out
    When SIP Line Out is set to enabled, SIP page audio will be heard from the Line Level Output. When this feature is disabled, the Line Level Output is muted during SIP page calls. The Line Level Output still receives multicast audio and the speaker still receives SIP page audio when the SIP Line Out is disabled. Note: With “SIP Line Out” disabled, “Line In” audio will be present on the “Line Out” terminals. Factory Setting: Enabled
27. DTMF Regeneration
    When DTMF Regeneration is Enabled, any touch tones entered by the caller (in-band or out of band) will be passed along to the line out, speaker out, and speaker. These tones are used by a zone controller or external amplifier to choose which zone to send the page audio to. Factory Setting: Disabled
28. Pre Page Tone
    When enabled, a short beep will be heard prior to SIP or standard Multicast paging audio. The volume of the Pre Page Alert Tone will match the volume setting of the SIP or standard Multicast page. Factory Setting: Enabled
    
29. Mute Current / Next Alarm
    A network failure alarm will be indicated by providing 3 beeps over the speaker, the Speaker Out and Line Out every 30 seconds but only when Permanent Alarm Mute is set to Alarm Tones Enabled (Permanent Alarm Mute is set to Alarm Tones Disabled by default). A network failure indicates the unit is not registered to the SIP server or there is a communication failure with the gateway. The three beeps can be muted by clicking on “Mute Current / Next Alarm” button in the IP Programming software or pressing and holding the Reset button for 5 seconds. The Status LED will continue to flash to assist troubleshooting. The alarm beeps can also be permanently disabled. See Permanent Alarm Mute. Factory Setting: Disabled
30. Permanent Alarm Mute
    Permanent Alarm Mute is set to Alarm Tones Disabled by default, so network failure alarms will not be indicated over the speaker, the Speaker Out or Line Out. Only the status LED will flash to indicate the network failure. To enable alarm tones over the audio outputs, select Alarm Tones Enabled.
31. Program a Username and Password to restrict Access to Programming
    To increase security, a username and password can be programmed to limit access to the 40-IP using Viking IP Programming software. When no username and password are programmed and the security code is still set to default (845464), the PC software will not require a username, password or security code when connecting to the 40-IP. If the 40-IP has been programmed with a username and password, a pop up window will ask for the username followed by the password. If the unit’s security code has been changed from default (845464), it will then prompt for the correct security code.
    If the username and password are unknown, they can only be erased by resetting all network parameters to default with the Reset button (see section E on page 9). If the username and password are known but you wish to erase them, that can be accomplished by exporting the data from the 40-IP, resetting all network parameters to default with the Reset button (see section E on page 9) or clicking on “Clear IP Settings” and then importing the data back into the 40-IP.
32. IP Firmware
    Update IP is currently not available. The ability to update IP firmware will be made available in a later release of Viking IP Programming software. If an IP firmware update is needed, Viking Technical Support will assist in updating the IP firmware.
33.  Unit Firmware
    If new unit firmware is available, after opening the programming software a pop-up window will ask if you would like to update the firmware. Another way to update is accomplished by clicking the “Update Unit” button. You can then browse the folder that contains the HEX file for updating the unit’s firmware. This method is typically only used when Viking Technical Support has sent you updated firmware.
34. Import/Export
    The Import/Export feature is useful for backing up all the 40-IP’s programming or for importing programming when installing multiple units with a majority of the same programming.
35. Clear Speaker Settings
    Clicking on the “Clear Speaker Settings” button in programming will reset all of the programmings features back to their factory default settings, including setting the unit’s security code back to the default value (845464).
    Note: This command will not change or reset your IP settings or Multicast paging settings.
36. Clear IP Settings
    Clicking on the “Clear IP Settings” will reset all of the IP settings back to their factory default settings. This also clears Multicast IP address/port settings and erases any username and password programmed in the unit to restrict access to programming. Note: This will not affect any speaker settings.
    
37. Night Ring Timed Operation
    When Night Ring Timed Operation is enabled, if a SIP call is received during the programmed Start and Stop times, the 40-IP will output loud ring through the speaker, Line Out and Speaker Out terminals. This is selectable for each day of the week. When outside of the Night Ring timing window, the Inbound Call Mode setting will determine how SIP calls are handled. Note: For timed Night Ringing the unit must be synced with a time server. If the Night Ringing feature is enabled in the software you will be asked to use Viking’s Time Server when changes are applied. The address will be entered by the software automatically.
38. Time Zone Settings
    When using the Night Ring Timed Operation, the 40-IP must be synced with the network time. Set the Time Zone Settings to match the settings on the network the unit is connected to for proper timed operation.
39. Line In
    The Line In terminals can be connected to an audio source (PC, Radio, etc.) to provide low-priority background music.
    If any SIP / Multicast paging is active, the Line In audio is muted until the end of the page. This is a Mono audio connection. If a stereo audio source is used, connect only the left channel.

Operation

A. Inbound SIP Calls
How inbound SIP calls are handled depends on the Inbound Call Mode selected (see Programming section 23), the current programming for Night Ring Timed Operation if enabled (see Programming section 37), the current time of day and day of the week. If Night Ring Timed Operation is disabled and the Inbound Call Mode is set to Auto Answer, the 40-IP will automatically answer inbound calls, provide a Pre Page Alert Tone if enabled, and allow paging. When the Inbound Call Mode is set to Auto Answer – Secure, the 40-IP auto answers inbound calls but the party must dial the Access Code before they are allowed to page. The Inbound Call Mode also has a Ring option that allows the unit to output a loud ring on any inbound SIP calls and the volume of the ring is adjustable (see Programming section 20). If Night Ring Timed Operation is enabled and an inbound SIP call is received between the programmed start and stop times and the current day is a programmed active day, the unit will automatically output a loud ring instead of following the Inbound Call Mode programming. This allows for the loud rings at certain times of the day/days of the week and paging all other times/days of the week.

B. Multicast
The 40-IP can be set to one of two modes for multicasting, Standard or Polycom. Polycom is only used when Polycom IP phones are used. To change to Polycom multicast, go to the “Speaker Settings” tab and change the “Multicast Page Type” to Polycom.
Standard Multicast Paging (Factory Setting)
Up to 10 multicast paging groups can be programmed into each unit and each group is assigned a priority level allowing simultaneous arriving multicast pages to be handled based on importance. Low priority groups are often used for low priority streams like background music and high priority groups are used for high priority streams such as emergency messages. Group 0 is the highest priority, and Group 9 is the lowest. A timeout limit can be set and either enabled or disabled for each multicast group. The volume of each group can be programmed and SIP calls can be assigned either higher or lower priority than all or some of the multicast groups (see Programming section 10).
Polycom Multicast Paging
Polycom phones send multicast audio to a specific IP address and port. A total of 25 groups can be used and groups 1 through 24 can individually be enabled/disabled in each 40-IP. Group 25 is always enabled, as group 25 is generally used for emergency broadcasts. Any multicast page made from a Polycom phone (on the same LAN) to the programmed IP address, port and to an enabled group will play through the 40-IP speaker. The priority of Polycom sources ranges from group 1 (lowest) to group 25 (highest). SIP pages can be assigned either higher or lower priority than Polycom group 1 through 24 multicast paging (see the table in programming section 10 for Polycom paging priorities). Multicast page timeout can be enabled/disabled globally for groups 1 through 24 (there is no timeout for group 25) and the length of the Multicast page timeout is adjustable. The volume for Polycom multicast is set globally for all groups.
C. Optional RC-4A Relay Operation Commands (Relay Mode must be set to “Door Strike”)
The following commands can be entered after an inbound SIP call from the 40-IP when the Inbound Call Mode is set to auto-answer. After the unit auto answers the call, one beep will be heard if Pre Page Alert Tone is enabled. If the Access Code has been disabled, you can now enter the Operation Commands listed below. If an Access Code has been programmed, enter the Access Code digits. Once the correct code has been entered, two beeps will be heard and you can now enter the Operation Commands listed below.

Feature	Tone Tone Command	Description
Activate Relay	✱✱ or ___ ___	Momentarily activate relay (1 or 2 digits, factory set to ✱✱).
Un-Latch Relay	✱0	Un-latch* (deactivate) the relay.
Latch Relay	✱1	Latch* (continuously activate) the relay.
Disconnect	#	Disconnects or forces the speaker to hang up.

* Note: Latching commands must be enabled in programming.

Troubleshooting

If the unit cannot register with the programmed SIP server, the LED will blink on and off every two seconds until communication is restored. This alerts a potential user of a problem with the device that will prevent a page from being made.

Optional Secure Remote Relay Control using Viking Model RC-4A

For applications requiring secure relay control a Viking model, RC-4A remote relay controller can be used. The relay controller is mounted securely inside the building and connected to the same LAN as the 40-IP. The 40-IP will send an encrypted message to the RC-4A to activate its relays which control the door strikes/gates.
Up to 4 40-IP’s can communicate with one RC-4A allowing you to securely control four entrances.
When using an RC-4A for remote relay control the 40-IP’s relays must be set to “External” (see Programming section 12).
For more information on the RC-4A, see DOD 582.

250 Watt / 70V Paging Power Amplifier

Model PP-250
For more info, see DOD 511.

The PP-250 is a 250 Watt 70V Paging Power Amplifier that can drive up to two hundred fifty (250) 70V speakers and/or paging horns (each speaker set to “1 Watt tap”). The small 1U rack size chassis is possible because the PP-250 uses new amplifier technology that is 3 times more efficient than old designs competitors use. The high efficiency of the PP-250 means much less heat dissipation, smaller size, higher reliability, and lower cost.
The PP-250 can be used to add power amplification to a phone system paging port, Viking’s remote access device (RAD-1A), clock-controlled tone generators (CTG-1A, CTG-2A), mass notification announcer (DNA-510), digital announcers (DVA2WA, K-2000-DVA), zone paging controller (ZPI-4), or to expand the paging power capability of these Viking products: PA-IP, PA-2A, PA-15, PA-30, PA-250, and PA-250-IP.

60 Watt Compact Two Zone Amplifier to Drive up to 60 Paging Speakers

The PA-60 can directly drive up to sixty (60) 8 Ohm paging speakers or one hundred (100) 70 volt or 25-volt paging speakers. Both channels can be fed the same input so the PA-60 can be used as a single large amplifier, or each channel can be fed different inputs so the PA-60 can be used as a two-zone amplifier.
This small and lightweight chassis design is possible by utilizing new amplifier technology that is 300% less inefficient than old designs competitors use. High efficiency means much less heat dissipation, smaller size, higher reliability, and lower cost.
Since each input has its own gain adjustment, one zone can be turned up louder for warehouse paging horn speakers, and the other zone can be turned down for office ceiling speakers. Two zones can also be helpful for installations in which one group of speakers is connected to a source that provides background music using the Viking PI-1A Paging Interface unit, and the other zone provides only paging.



The Viking models CTG-1A or CTG-2A can be used to add clock-controlled tones with paging to both zones, or one zone can have just paging and be free of the time scheduled alert tones. The same can be done with the Viking model MTG-10 in which one zone can have just paging, and the other zone can have paging plus the 10 different siren, warble, and chime tones that the MTG-10 can provide.
One or two PA-60’s can be added to the Viking model ZPI-4 four zone paging interface to provide either 60 Watts or 120 Watts of total paging power in four zones. The PA-60 can also be used to add additional paging power to other Viking paging products such as the PA-2A, PA-15, and PA-30.
The PA-60’s inputs are transformer coupled so they are floating and isolated. Because of this, they can be connected to any line-level audio signal, or by turning down the input gain control to unity ga
