Flush Mounting into Other Materials or Outdoors
The same guidelines of flush mounting from the previous section apply, however, the Drywall Bracket may not be required if the wall material is firm enough to hold a screw close to the cutout edge. A #8 anchor may be required (not supplied) for the wall material.
If outdoors:
1. A rubber Ethernet Cable boot is supplied to be placed over the network cable prior to terminating with a plug (see “PoE Network Connection” on page 15).
2. While the 8036 is designed to withstand rain, it may be undesirable for water to enter the wall cavity. This can be achieved by sealing the cable hole prior to mounting or using the Mounting Gasket between the 8036 and wall. Uneven surfaces may require a silicon bead around the 8036 after installation.

PoE Network Connection
The 8036 is powered by the Ethernet PoE network connection. Typically a network cable is run to the 8036 location and then terminated with a male RJ45 plug.
If you don’t have a PoE switch, you’ll need a PoE injector that installs between the 8036 and the network switch. The PoE injector will supply 48 Vdc to the 8036. Ensure that the PoE injector is fully compliant to the IEEE 802.3af standard.
If mounting outdoors, slide the Ethernet Cable Boot onto the cable before installing the RJ45 plug.

Programming and Configuration
Web Interface Control Panel
Primary configuration of the 8036 is through the web interface control panel. Here is where you will be able to set up your 8036 and also develop interface screens to create interactive applications.
Accessing the Control Panel
To access the 8036 Control Panel, you first need to determine the 8036’s IP address and then enter this address into a browser.
Find the IP Address
After connecting the 8036 to a network PoE port, the 8036 will attempt to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server and display this on the screen.
- 17 -
If this is the first time you are using the 8036 and no user interface has yet been set up, you will be displayed the Welcome screen to the right which provides the IP address. If a User Interface already exists, the IP address will be shown for a few seconds at boot time, before the splash screen appears.
You will need to know this IP address in order to access the web interface tool.
If the 8036 in unable to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server, it will default to the fixed IP address 192.168.1.111.
- 18 -
Web Configuration Panel
Point your web browser to the 8036’s IP address. This brings up the login page. The default password is algo.
Once logged in, the Status page is shown which welcomes you to the program (see “Control Panel Menu Reference” on page 23). From here you can access all of the configuration options for your 8036 device.
Setup SIP Account
The SIP account and related settings can all be found in the
Settings>SIP section. This configuration will make the 8036’s
location known and allow the 8036 to make and receive calls. You must have a valid SIP account. You can get more details from your System/Network Administrator to fill in this section.
- 19 -
Application Development
Overview
With the 8036 you can easily design, implement, and update custom user interface screens and functions that help you communicate most effectively with visitors and guests. For example, you can make attractive landing pages with your company logo and graphics. On it, you can have buttons that make calls or that lead to various information or directory pages.
Example 8036 Custom Graphics Screen using 3 x 3 Full Button layout with four active buttons
You can set all of this up using the 8036 Control Panel. You’ll also be able to back up all the configuration and user interface information to a PC for safekeeping.
- 20 -
Creating User Interface Screens
The key to an effective implementation of the 8036 is to configure a package of interface screens that fulfill the various visitor functions you require. You do this easily through the User Interface menu in the 8036 Control Panel (see “User Interface” on page 33).
For a basic implementation, you can set up simple screens and pages using the generic button graphics and background screens provided with the system. You can also easily create graphics screens developed with standard image editing programs and then import them into the 8036. Either way, you can set up multiple pages with different button configurations and layouts, enable or disable specific button locations, and set different actions associated with each button.
You can also import tab-delimited text files containing names and numbers and have the 8036 display a directory whereby visitors can call individuals directly.
Custom Graphic Screens
To develop custom interface screens you need to be able to create 640 x 480 pixel graphic files in the PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format. Most graphics/image editing programs (such as Adobe® Photoshop®) have this capability. Within the graphics program you can create your own background and button graphics and then align the button graphics (if used) to the layouts you have chosen for your 8036 User Interface.
The User Interface configuration allows you to create several types of pages with different button configurations. For information on the different types of button layout pages possible, please refer to the “Button Positioning Table” on page 50.
- 21 -
For example, here is a standard Two Button page layout in combination with a custom 640 x 480 PNG graphics file to create a simple Welcome page for visitors.
Directory (Addressbook) Listings
You can also upload tab-delimited text files to allow the 8036 to display directory pages. You can then set up pages to use these directory files to display a call directory for visitors to use. For more information, see “Directory (Addressbook) Text Files” on page 53.
- 22 -
Uploading user content
Before configuring a custom user interface, all the images, directory text files, and other resources that will be used by your UI must first be uploaded to the 8036.
You can upload individual files as you need them (see or you can upload content files in bulk using a properly formatted compressed file (in .tar.gz format). For more information on this, please see “Working with Compressed Files” on page
55.

Adobe® Photoshop® Templates
To simplify the process of creating graphic screens with buttons that exactly line up to pre-configured 8036 button layouts, a set of Photoshop templates is available at www.algosolutions.com/8036templates
Here you’ll find a link to a ZIP file containing multiple Photoshop files that provide guides for laying out User Interface screens for the 8036. Each file contains guides for placing buttons that corresponds to the 8036’s standard button configurations.
To use the files, open up the Photoshop file that corresponds to the button configuration you want to use. Then set Photoshop to snap to guides (View>Snap To>Guides). Then

use Photoshop’s Rectangle Tool to draw buttons using the guides. After completing the button graphics, choose the File>Save for Web and Devices menu and use the PNG-24 preset to create the PNG file for importing into the 8036.

Directory (Addressbook) Text Files
You can upload tab-delimited text files to the 8036 (User
Interface>Page Settings>Upload Image/Addressbook) to
create Directory pages. These Directory pages can then be used by visitors to make calls to individuals listed in the file.
As an example, here is the contents of a directory file with two fields, one for “name”, and one for “telephone extension”.
Al Smith 1028 Bob Johnson 2156 John Jones 2345 Paul Phillips 1287 Terry Stevens 1256
Note that each line represents one directory member field and that a TAB separates each field value. Note also that empty lines will result in empty lines in the Directory.
- 54 -
To create a tab delimited text file using Microsoft Excel:
1. Open your spreadsheet document go to the Windows/
Office round button menu and choose Save As....
2. Change the “Save as type” or “Format” field to read: ‘Text (Tab delimited)’.
3. Enter a name for the document and click Save.
If you need your Addressbook entries sorted, you should do this when editing your text file. Note that the 8036 will not sort Addressbook entries.

Working with Compressed Files
Using compressed tar.gz2 files, the 8036 Control Panel allows you to:
• Create archive files of configuration settings
• Restore configuration settings
• Create archive files of User Interface files and settings
• Restore User Interface files and settings
• Upload one or more new or replacement user interface
files to the 8036
Note that in all instances, existing files on the 8036 will be overwritten if the uploaded file name is the same.
When uploading a tar.gz file to the 8036, it is important that all the proper folder structure be maintained such that it matches what is used on the 8036. Otherwise, the uploaded files may get placed in a wrong location rendering them unusable.
The best way to get the folder structure right is to first download an archive from the 8036, extract it to a folder on your PC, then observe how the folders are named and arranged. Then make sure all the updated files are in the same directories. For example, all of the application images (e.g. background screens) and Directory / Addressbook files will be in the apps/uiapp/user/ folder.
For more information on downloading and restoring configuration files, see “Backup / Restore Configuration” on page 43. For information on backing up and restoring user interface files, please see “Backup / Restore User Interface” on page 43.
2 A tar.gz file is a collection of files packaged into a single file (using TAR) and then
compressed (using GZIP).
- 56 -
Please note that you can give any name to the .tar.gz file. Once the .tar.gz file is uploaded, the 8036 automatically extracts the files. To replace a file, upload the .tar.gz file again with this new file. A single file or partial group of files can also be uploaded, as long as they maintain the required folder structure and are compressed in that structure.
Note that large applications with numerous image files may take several minutes to complete the update.
