=== Group Call ===
+
==Configuration of cameras==
The ITSV-1 can be configured to receive group call audio.
 
  
The Pulse Server transmits group call audio using IP multicast technology. Each group call uses its own unique multicast IP address. The multicast IP address can be found by logging on to the Pulse Server, and navigate to '''Server Management''' > '''Group Call'''.  
+
===Configuration of the TCIV+ station (10083150x0)===
 +
By default the TCIV+ station is set to use RTSP/H264 @ 1080P with authentication enabled. The video resolution needs to be changed to 480P in order to receive the video stream in ITSV-1.  
  
[[File:PulseServerMulticast.png|thumb|500px|left|Finding the multicast addresses used by group calls]]
+
To configure the settings:
<br style="clear:both;" />
 
  
Make a note of the multicast addresses, then log in to the ITSV-1 station, and navigate to '''Advanced Settings''' > '''Multicast Paging'''.
+
*Log on to the TCIV+ station (default username: '''admin''', password: '''alphaadmin''')
Set "Multicast Paging Codec" = '''G722''', and enter the multicast address(es) found in the Pulse Server as indicated in the screen shot below:
+
*Select '''Advanced ICX-AlphaCom''' > '''Video Settings'''
 +
*Change the '''Resolution''' to '''480P'''
 +
*Press '''Save'''

<br style="clear:both;" />
 
<br style="clear:both;" />
  
Press '''Apply''', then '''Reboot''' the ITSV station for the new settings to take effect.
+
===Configuration of the TCIV station (10081150x0)===
 +
By default the TCIV station (as from firmware 4.11 and later) is set to use RTSP/H264 on stream 2, with authentication enabled, and further settings should not be necessary in order to receive the video stream in ITSV-1.  
 +
 
 +
To verify the settings:
  
When a group call is activated, the ITSV-1 will automatically play the audio in the loudspeaker. The display of the ITSV will show the text of the group call as entered in the "Label" field next to the multicast IP address.
+
*Log on to the TCIV station (default username: '''admin''', password: '''alphaadmin''')
 +
*Select '''Advanced ICX-AlphaCom''' > '''Video Settings''', and check the settings as below:
  
If the ITSV is busy in a regular call when a group call is made, it will by default not play the group call audio. However, if '''Paging Barge''' (see screen shot above) is set to value "2" or higher, the current call will be placed On Hold, and the group call audio will be played. When the group call is ended, the ITSV user must press the Hold button to resume the call.

[[Category: Pulse - SIP Video Phones]]
+
== Call Forwarding ==
 +
You can toggle Call Forwarding On/Off by means of the DND (Do Not Disturb) button on the phone. When DND is activated there is a red banner across the top of the screen. This can be achieved by using the [[Call Forward feature]]
 +
[[File:ITSV_DND_Button.png|thumb|700px|left|The DND button]]
 +
<br style="clear:both;" />
 +
 
 +
In the '''Accounts''' configuration find the fields for '''DND Call feature On''' and '''DND call feature Off''':
 +
* In the DND Call Feature On enter '''71 + destination directory number'''. When DND is activated, the station will dial the command in the field. Press " * " or wait 10 seconds for the call forward to be activated
 +
* In the DND Call Feature Off enter '''70'''. This will deactivate the Call Forward feature.
 +
[[File:CallForward_ITSV1_Alphacom.png|thumb|700px|left|Activate Call Forwarding to 105 when DND is on]]
 +
<br style="clear:both;" />
 +
 
 +
{{note|As an alternative one can enter an Event Trigger Number, and use the event handler in ICX-AlphaCom to activate features when DND is turned on or off}}
 +
 
 +
When DND is activated there is a red banner across the top of the screen.
 +
 
 +
[[File:ITSV-1 DND Enabled.png|thumb|500px|left|Red banner shows that DND is activated]]
 +
<br style="clear:both;" />
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==Using ITSV-1 as operator station==
 +
As from AMC-IP version 13.1.3.3 and ICX-Core version 1.0.3.2 it is possible to use the ITSV-1 as operator station in systems which are integrated with a VMS or an access control system.
 +
{{note|
 +
The description in this paragraph has now been tested with several integrations; before deployment it is however important to test this to ensure satisfactory operation on site. }}
 +
To be able to use the ITSV-1 as an operator intercom, the following setting must be made:
 +
 
 +
*Log in into the ITSV-1 web page (default credentials: '''admin/alphaadmin''')
 +
*Navigate to '''Call Settings''' related to the account that is used to connect to the ICX or AlphaCom.
 +
*Make the setting as indicated in the picture below
 +
 
 +
[[Image:ITSV-1Setup.png|thumb|left|500px|ITSV-1 as intercom]]
 +
<br style="clear:both;" />
 +
Using the ITSV-1 as operator station works best if calls to Ringing Groups are used instead of call requests. For this purpose the functionality of the ringing group feature has been extended such that  also CRMV stations with IP-DAK48 panels can be used; it is therefore possible to mix the ITSV-1 with other operator station types in the same ringing group.
 +
 
 +
*Add all operators (even if there is only 1 operator) as member in a Ringing Group - By default Groups 51-60 are setup as Ringing Group in ICX and AlphaCom
 +
 
 +
[[Image:RingingGroup.png|thumb|left|500px|Add operator stations to a Ringing Group]]
 +
<br style="clear:both;" />
 +
 
 +
*Program the call buttons of sub-stations to make a call to a Ringing Group - for instance, use '''I 6701''' to make a call to all operators in the first Ringing Group, group 51
 +
 
 +

Configuration for Video

The ITSV-1 phone can be configured to show video image from the following Video Door Stations:

The video is streamed directly from the camera to the ITSV-1. The AlphaCom Server is not involved in the video stream. The cameras must have a static IP address. The ITSV-1 supports up to 100 cameras per account.

The directory number of the Video Door Station must be defined in the Camera List, together with the URL of the camera of the Video Door Station. When a call is received, the ITSV will look up in this Camera List, and find the correct URL for the associated camera.

  • Select Account > Account 1 > Call Settings
  • In "Special Feature", select Vingtor Stentofon Door System
  • In "Configure Door System" press the button Configure to open the Camera List
Open the Camera List to define camera URL and directory numbers


  • In the Camera List, enter the camera URL and the directory number of the Video Door station:
Enter the camera URL and the directory number of the Video Door station in the ITSV-1 phone


What URL to use depends on the type/model of Video Door Station being used. Recommended protocol/url is in bold:

Call Forwarding

You can toggle Call Forwarding On/Off by means of the DND (Do Not Disturb) button on the phone. When DND is activated there is a red banner across the top of the screen. This can be achieved by using the Call Forward feature

The DND button


In the Accounts configuration find the fields for DND Call feature On and DND call feature Off:

  • In the DND Call Feature On enter 71 + destination directory number. When DND is activated, the station will dial the command in the field. Press " * " or wait 10 seconds for the call forward to be activated
  • In the DND Call Feature Off enter 70. This will deactivate the Call Forward feature.
Activate Call Forwarding to 105 when DND is on


Note icon As an alternative one can enter an Event Trigger Number, and use the event handler in ICX-AlphaCom to activate features when DND is turned on or off


When DND is activated there is a red banner across the top of the screen.

Red banner shows that DND is activated



Using ITSV-1 as operator station

As from AMC-IP version 13.1.3.3 and ICX-Core version 1.0.3.2 it is possible to use the ITSV-1 as operator station in systems which are integrated with a VMS or an access control system.

Note icon

The description in this paragraph has now been tested with several integrations; before deployment it is however important to test this to ensure satisfactory operation on site.


To be able to use the ITSV-1 as an operator intercom, the following setting must be made:

  • Log in into the ITSV-1 web page (default credentials: admin/alphaadmin)
  • Navigate to Call Settings related to the account that is used to connect to the ICX or AlphaCom.
  • Make the setting as indicated in the picture below
ITSV-1 as intercom


Using the ITSV-1 as operator station works best if calls to Ringing Groups are used instead of call requests. For this purpose the functionality of the ringing group feature has been extended such that also CRMV stations with IP-DAK48 panels can be used; it is therefore possible to mix the ITSV-1 with other operator station types in the same ringing group.

  • Add all operators (even if there is only 1 operator) as member in a Ringing Group - By default Groups 51-60 are setup as Ringing Group in ICX and AlphaCom
Add operator stations to a Ringing Group


  • Program the call buttons of sub-stations to make a call to a Ringing Group - for instance, use I 6701 to make a call to all operators in the first Ringing Group, group 51
