Snom IP Phone with AlphaCom XE server

This article describes how to set up the IP phone Yealink VP530 to operate with an AlphaCom server. The Yealink phone can be used for audio only, or they can also be used to show the video image from a Stentofon IP Video Door Station.

For video the following possibilities can be realized:

  • Pop up video image. The video image of IP Video Door Station is shown automatically on an incoming call and end automatically when the communication is finished.
  • Manual video image. The video image of the IP Video Door Station can be activated and ended by pressing a function key.


AlphaCom configuration

The Snom phone must be configured as a SIP User in AlphaPro, Users & Stations. See article SIP phone as station for details.


Configuration of the Yealink phone via the web user interface

The phone can also be configured via the phone user interface, please refer to the Quick Installation Guide for the phone.

Network settings

  1. Press the OK key when the phone is idle to get the IP address of the phone
  2. Open the web browser of your computer, enter the IP address into the addres bar (e.g. "http://192.168.0.10" or "192.168.0.10") and click Enter.

SIP account

Codec settings

Codec must be changed to G.711u-law (pcmu) and the internal "telphone event".

In Identity 1 -> RTP, set the codec to: "pcmu,telephone-event", remove all other codecs:

Set the codec to: "pcmu,telephone-event"


Other parameters

Set Call Waiting Indication to "Off":

Set "Call Waiting Indication" to "Off"



Set SIP port to 5060:

Set SIP port to 5060



Disable Filter Packets from Registrar:

Disable "Filter packets from Registrar"



In Identity 1 -> SIP, set Support broken Registrar to "On":

Set Support broken Registrar to: "On"


Door Opening feature (optional)

During conversation with the Door Station a relay can be operated by pressing digit 6 on the Snom phone. The Snom phone uses DTMF by RFC2833 by default, which is supported by AlphaCom, so no settings are required in the phone.

In AlphaCom the relay must be mapped to a logical RCO, and an "Door Opening" event created to trigger this RCO.

To map a logical RCO to the relay of the IP Station, select Exchange & System -> RCO. Pick a free RCO, select Change and set the RCO Type = Station, enter the physical number of the IP Station, and set pin number = 1. In the example below the relay of IP Video Door station 48 (directory number 148) is mapped to RCO 11.

Logical RCO 11 is mapped to the relay of station 48



Create a "Door Opening" event with the IP Video Door Station as the event owner. Select Exchange & System -> Events, and Insert a new event with the following properties:

During conversation with the door station (148), pressing digit 6 will trigger the relay (RCO 11)


Configuration for Video

The Snom phones can be configured to show video image from the following stations/cameras:



Pop up video image

The screen of the Snom IP phone can be used to automatically show the video image during a call. The directory number of the station must be defined in the Directory of the Snom phone. When a call is made or received, the telephone will look up in the Directory, and find the correct URL for the associated camera.

In the web interface of the phone, select Directory in the menu, and enter the following parameters:

  • Number: The directory number of the IP Video Door Station, as entered in AlphaPro, Users & Stations.
  • Title: Enter any text
  • Action URL: Which URL to use depends on the type of camera/IP Station being used:
  • Nickname: Enter any text


Configure the IP Video Door station in the Directory list of the Snom phone


Manual video image

The video image can be started and ended manually by pressing a function key. With this feature the video image can be displayed without setting up a conversation.

In the web interface of the phone, select Function Keys in the menu, and enter the following parameters:


Pressing function key 1 will start the video image from camera 10.5.101.97



  • Start video image by pressing the programmed key.
  • End video image by pressing the "X-key".

Authentication

If the access of the CP-CAM camera is to be password protected, the following adjustments are necessary to the URL:

  • http://<User name>:<Password>@<IP adress of the camera>/snoma.cgi. If for example username is "admin" and the password is "1234", enter http://admin:1234@10.5.101.97/snoma.cgi

Axis camera - Uploading .XML file

When the Snom Phone is used to show an image from an Axis camera, an .xml file must be uploaded to the camera. This is applicable for IP Video Door Station model 1401110200 as well as when using standalone Axis camera.

  • Create a new textfile on your windows desktop and rename it to snomaxis.xml.
  • Open the file with a text editor e.g. Notepad
  • Copy the following lines to the snomaxis.xml text file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <SnomIPPhoneImageFile state="relevant" track="no" dtmf="on" >
 <LocationX>00</LocationX>
 <LocationY>00</LocationY>
 <url>http://<ip-address>/axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolution=320x240</url>
 <fetch mil="100">http://<ip-address>/local/viewer/snomaxis.xml</fetch>
 </SnomIPPhoneImageFile>
  • Replace the two <ip-address> tags with the IP address of your camera.
  • Save the file.
  • Etablish a FTP connection to the IP camera, using e.g. the PC tool WinSCP. Use the same username and password as the login on the webinterface.
  • Navigate to the following folder: /mnt/flash/etc/httpd/html/viewer
  • Copy the snomaxis.xml into the folder.
  • Close the FTP connection.
Uploading the "snomaxis.xml" file to an Axis camera using the PC tool WinSCP


Firmware update of Snom phone

In order to support video, the Snom phone must have the correct firmware. The firmware is uploaded using a TFTP server.

Upgrade procedure:

  • Download firmware for the relevant Snom model from the AlphaWiki download site
  • Unzip the file. Remember in which folder you stored the file
  • Start a TFTP server, and browse to the folder which contains the file. A TFTP server can be downloaded here: TFTP server
  • In the Snom webinterface, select Software Update and enter address tftp://[TFTPServer]/[file name], where [TFTPServer] = IP address of PC running the TFTP server and [file name] is the name of the downloaded .bin file.
    • Example: tftp://10.5.101.129/snom821-8.7.4.8-SIP-r.bin.
  • Select Load, and watch the progress on the display of the Snom phone
Starting the software upgrade process



Note: It is not recommended to use newer beta versions like 8.7.5.10, 8.7.5.12 or 8.7.5.13 as they have known issues with the video handling.
