Configuration for Video

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

• IP Video Door Station - 1401110100
• IP Video Door Station - 1401110200
• Turbine Compact IP Video - TCIV

The video is streamed in MJPEG format directly from the camera to the phone. The Pulse Server is not involved in the video stream. The cameras must have a static IP address. The ITSV-1 phone supports up to 30 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 phone will look up in this Camera List, and find the correct URL for the associated camera.

• In Account > Call Settings , select Account 1
• Press the button Configure Door System 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:

• Turbine Compact IP Video - TCIV: http://<IP address of the camera>:8090/mjpg/video.mjpg
  • Example: http://10.5.101.49:8090/mjpg/video.mjpg
• IP Video Door Station - 1401110100 (CP-CAM camera): http://<IP address of the camera>/mjpg/video.mjpg
  • Example: http://10.5.101.48/mjpg/video.mjpg
• IP Video Door Station - 1401110200 (Axis camera): http://<IP address of the camera>/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi
  • Example: http://10.5.101.39/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi

Door Opening feature (optional)

During conversation with the Door Station, the integrated relay of the door station can be operated by pressing digit "6" on the phone. As the Door Stations by default is configured to trigger on DTMF "6", no additional configuration is required for the Door Opening feature.

If there is a need to restrict which stations should be allowed to do Door Opening, this can be configured via Station Profiles.

Note: If the Door Station is of the INCA family, and has firmware 2.3.x.x or earlier, the DTMF methode must be set to SIP INFO in the ITSV-1 phone. Go to Account 1 > Codec Settings, and check DTMF via "SIP INFO":

Group Call

The Pulse Server transmits group call audio using MultiCast. 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.

Video setting in TCIV

Make a note of the multicast addresses, then log in to the ITSV-1 station, and navigate to Advanced Settings > Multicast Paging.
