Before use, the speaker must be configured with an IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, account information and SIP server information at a minimum.
Description
The SIP ceiling speaker has a 10/100M ethernet connection that supports the SIP RFC protocol. With its 15 Watt high-performance speaker it provides great quality sound for both voice calls and general audio. It is well suited for use in public broadcasting, alarm systems and monitoring systems.
It supports RTP broadcast and multicast and can play G.711a/u and G.722 audio protocols. It also plays 192bps MP3, 32k PCM encoding and can access the broadcast management software platform, which allows background music playback, timed broadcasts, real-time calls, and alarm connectivity.
Installation
- Cut a Ceiling hole 165mm / 6.5 inch
Fig 1. Cut Ceiling Hole
- Connect Speaker to Powered Ethernet Cable OR attach power supply and unpowered Ethernet Cable but not both.
| Note: If the speaker volume is at or above 15, you will need a power adapter or a POE power adapter that supports 802.3at (POE+) to provide sufficient power. |

Configuring Connectors
The talkback speaker has a single 4 wire connector. This is to connect a push button close circuit (Relay In) and output 12V of power (Relay Out).

Fig 9 – Talkback Speaker Connections
Connecting Closed Circuit (Relay In)
The Talkback speaker has the ability to dial down to a pre-set extension number. To get the Talkback Speaker to dial a predetermined number, you need to close the Relay In terminals.
As an optional extra, you can add the Beebop 433Mhz Controller, that allows you to use remote control panic buttons and key fobs to trigger the relay.
Connecting Relay Out
The Relay Out allows you to trigger another event such as powering a strobe light. The Relay Out is simply closing a circuit whilst the Speaker is “off-hook”. It is terminated when the call to or from the speaker is closed.
