Volume Boost:

No Volume Boost

Volume Boost 1

Volume Boost 2

Volume Boost 3

Set the Boost level to increase the volume output of the speaker. Using
Volume Boost may introduce audio clips or lessen the effectiveness of
the echo canceler. Boost is only recommended for use with volumes set
to level 9.

Normal operation of the product can be met with volume levels 0

h 9. 0 being mute and 9 being the loudest volume that in a normal

throug
arm's length and average background noise, will enable full duplex
operation and give the best quality of sound output.

The volume boost options increase the output of the speaker by:

3db for Boost level 1

6db for Boost level 2

9db for Boost level 3

If the user would like a higher o

utput from the speaker, the Boost
settings are available. However, operation in Boost Mode may overdrive
or clip the audio if, for example, the phone that is connected has a high
microphone gain or if the person has a loud voice talking too close to the
microphone.

The acoustic echo canceller also has a harder time maintaining full

plex operation when in the Boost Mode. The product may drop from

du
full duplex operation into half/duplex mode while in Boost Mode.

Contact CyberData support for additional information if needed.

2.3.9 Configure the Sensor Configuration Parameters

The door sensor (pins 5 and 6) on the header can be used to monitor a door's open or closed state.
There is an option on the Sensor page to trigger on an open or short condition on these pins. The
door sensor alarm will be activated when the Door Open Timeout parameter has been met.

The intrusion sensor is an optical sensor installed on the board and will be activated when the board
is removed from the case.

Each sensor can trigger up to five different actions:

• Flash the LED until the sensor is deactivated (roughly 10 times/second)

• Activate the relay until the sensor is deactivated

• Loop an audio file out of the speaker until the sensor is deactivated

• Call an extension and establish two way audio

• Call an extension and play a pre-recorded audio file

Note Calling a preset extension can be set up as a point-to-point call, but currently can't send

delayed DTMF tones.

2.3.12.1 Autoprovisioning

On boot, the device will look for an autoprovisioning server configured on the Autoprovisioning Page
or specified as a DHCP option. When it finds a server, it will try to download the following (in order of
p

reference):

1. The file configured on the autoprovisioning page.

2. A file named according to it's mac address (for example: 0020f7350058.xml).

3. The file 000000cd.xml

The file can be hosted using a standard web server (lik
download over SSL. The file server can be an ipv4 address in dotted decimal notation or a fully
qualified domain name.

By default, the device will get its autoprovisioning server from the DHCP options. See Section

2.3.12.2, "Sample dhcpd.conf" for an example of how to configure dhcpd to offer autoprovisioning

server addresses. If multiple options are set, the device will attempt to download autoprovisioning
f

iles from every server.

The DHCP option determines the protocol used to download the autoprovisioning file. The device
looks f

or DHCP options in the following order:

1. Option 43 - a FQDN or an IP address to an http server

2. Option 72 - an IP address to an http server

Device Configuration

You can download an autoprovisioning template file from the Autoprovisioning Page using the
Download Template button (see Ta bl e 2-20). This file contains every configuration option that can
be set on the board.

Autoprovisioning files can contain the whole configuration or a subset of this file. The first
autoprovisioning file can also contain links to other autoprovisioning files.

The <MiscSettings> section contains some examples of additional autoprovisioning files:

<MiscSettings>
<DeviceName>CyberData VoIP Device</DeviceName>
<!-- <AutoprovFile>common.xml</AutoprovFile>-->
<!-- <AutoprovFile>sip_reg[macaddress].xml</AutoprovFile>-->
<!-- <AutoprovFile>audio[macaddress]</AutoprovFile>-->
<!-- <AutoprovFile>device[macaddress].xml</AutoprovFile>-->
</MiscSettings>

After downloading the first autoprovisioning file, the device will step through up to twenty additional
<AutoprovFile> entries and try to download these files from the same server.

When the device finds a filename with the string [macaddress], it will replace this string with the
mac address.

As an example, the user has configured option 43 on their DHCP server to “http://example.com,” and
on their server, they have a file named 0020f7123456.xml (the same as the mac address of the
device).

4. It will try to download http://example.com/audio0020f7123456.

5. It will try to download http://example.com/device.xml.

The device is reconfigured every time it downloads a new file so if two files configure the same
option the last one will be the one that is saved.

89

Checking for New Autoprovisioning Files after Boot

It is possible to autoprovision autoprovisioning values (for example, to disable autoprovisioning or to
configure a time to check for new files).

The device will always check for an autoprovisioning files on boot but it can be configured to also
check after a periodic delay, when idle, or at a specified time. When one of these options is set, the
device will download its autoprovisioning files again, and if it finds any differences from the files it
downloaded on boot, it will force a reboot and reconfigure.

TFTP options may not support subdirectories. If a directory is set in the filename field, firmware and

udio files will also be downloaded from this subdirectory.

a

If the filename ends with a forward slash “/,” the device will treat it as a subdirectory.

For example:

The autoprovisioning server is set to “https://www.example.com”

The autoprovisioning filename is set to “cyberdata/”

On boot, the device will try to download:

https://www.example.com/cyberdata/0020f7123456.xml

...and if this fails:

https://www.example.com/cyberdata/000000cd.xml

Audio files and firmware files will also add “cyberdata” to the URL before downloading.

Autoprovisioning Firmware Updates

<FirmwareSettings>

<FirmwareFile>505-uImage-ceilingspeaker</FirmwareFile>
<FirmwareServer>10.0.1.3</FirmwareServer>
<OutdoorIntercom30>firmware_file_v9.3.0</OutdoorIntercom30>
<OutdoorIntercom31>firmware_file_v10.3.0</OutdoorIntercom31>
<CallButton31>firmware_file_v10.3.0</CallButton31>

</FirmwareSettings>

In the <FirmwareSettings> section, the <FirmwareServer> element can be used to specify a
different server for hosting firmware files. When this element is not available, the device will try to
download the file from the autoprovisioning server.

The device will use the filename to determine when to autoprovision firmware updates. The default
configuration is blank, so the first time you set a value in your autoprovisioning file, it may force a
firmware update even if the firmware version has not changed.

The <FirmwareFile> name can contain path elements (i.e. /path/to/firmware/10.3.0-uImage­[device_file_name]).

The device also supports product strings for downloading firmware. If the <FirmwareFile> option is
not set, the device will look for its particular product string for a firmware filename. In this way, a
generic autoprovisioning file can specify unique firmware for a range of products.

The list of valid product strings:

<ProductString>CallButton31</ProductString>

<ProductString>EmergencyIntercom31</ProductString>
<ProductString>EmergencyIntercom31SW</ProductString>
<ProductString>IndoorIntercom31</ProductString>
<ProductString>IndoorIntercom31SW</ProductString>
<ProductString>IndoorKeypad31</ProductString>
<ProductString>IndoorKeypad31SW</ProductString>
<ProductString>OfficeRinger31</ProductString>
<ProductString>OfficeRinger31SW</ProductString>
<ProductString>OutdoorIntercom31</ProductString>
<ProductString>OutdoorIntercom31SW</ProductString>
<ProductString>OutdoorKeypad31</ProductString>
<ProductString>OutdoorKeypad31SW</ProductString>
<ProductString>Strobe31</ProductString>

Autoprovisioning Example 1

Here's a simple example using four autoprovisioning files to configure two devices:

We boot up two devices with mac addresses 00:20:f7:02:00:01 and 00:20:f7:02:00:02 (Device1
and Device2).

The devices are set to use DHCP and that server provides an autoprovisioning server address with
option 43. The address is “https://autoprovtest.server.net.” The files on this server are as follows:

000000cd.xml

<MiscSettings>
<DeviceName>CyberData Autoprovisioned</DeviceName>
<AutoprovFile>sip_common.xml</AutoprovFile>
<AutoprovFile>sip_[macaddress].xml</AutoprovFile>
</MiscSettings>

sip_common.xml

<SIPSettings>
<SIPServer>10.0.0.253</SIPServer>
<RemoteSIPPort>5060</RemoteSIPPort>
</SIPSettings>

sip_0020f7020001.xml

<SIPSettings>
<SIPUserID>198</SIPUserID>
<SIPAuthPassword>ext198</SIPAuthPassword>
<DialoutExtension0>204</DialoutExtension0>
</SIPSettings>



sip_0020f7020002.xml

<SIPSettings>
<SIPUserID>500</SIPUserID>
<SIPAuthPassword>ext500</SIPAuthPassword>
<DialoutExtension0>555</DialoutExtension0>
</SIPSettings>

On boot, Device1 tries to fetch the file 0020f7023614.xml from “https://autoprovtest.server.net”. This
file is not available, so device1 then tries to fetch the file 000000cd.xml. This file exists, and Device1
parses the three elements.

1. Device1 changes its device name to CyberData Autoprovisioned.

2. Device1 finds an AutoprovFile element containing the filename sip_common.xml. The device
downloads sip_common.xml from “https://autoprovtest.server.net,” and imports this
configuration, setting the sip server to 10.0.0.253 and the remote port to 5060.3.

3. Device1 finds another AutoprovFile element containing the filename sip_[macaddress].xml.
The device replaces the [macaddress] with its own mac address value creating
sip_0020f7020001.xml, downloads this file from “https://autoprovtest.server.net,” and imports
this configuration. This sets the user ID to 198, the password to ext198, and the dialout
extension to 204. Device1 is now finished with autoprovisioning.

Device2 goes through the same steps by setting its device name to CyberData Autoprovisioned,
its SIP server to 10.0.0.253, and its port to 5060. When Device2 “sees” sip_[macaddress].xml,
Device2 replaces it with its own mac address and downloads sip_0020f7020002.xml from
“https://autoprovtest.server.net.” Device2 sets the SIP User ID to 500, the password to ext500, and
the dialout extension to 555.

Autoprovisioning Example 2

Here is another example of setting up your autoprovisioning files:

We boot up two devices with mac addresses 00:20:f7:02:00:01 and 00:20:f7:02:00:02 (Device1
and Device2) and boot them on a network with a DHCP server configured with an autoprovisioning
server at 10.0.1.3 on option 150. Our TFTP server has three files:

0020f7020001.xml

<MiscSettings>
<AutoprovFile>common_settings.xml</AutoprovFile>
</MiscSettings>
<SIPSettings>
<SIPUserID>198</SIPUserID>
<SIPAuthPassword>ext198</SIPAuthPassword>
<DialoutExtension0>204</DialoutExtension0>
</SIPSettings>

0020f7020002.xml

<MiscSettings>
<AutoprovFile>common_settings.xml</AutoprovFile>
</MiscSettings>
<SIPSettings>
<SIPUserID>500</SIPUserID>
<SIPAuthPassword>ext500</SIPAuthPassword>
<DialoutExtension0>555</DialoutExtension0>
</SIPSettings>



common_settings.xml

<MiscSettings>
<DeviceName>CyberData Autoprovisioned</DeviceName>
</MiscSettings>
<SIPSettings> <SIPServer>10.0.0.253</SIPServer>
<RemoteSIPPort>5060</RemoteSIPPort>
</SIPSettings>

1. On boot, Device1 downloads 0020f7020001.xml from 10.0.1.3 and imports these values. The SIP
User ID is 198, the password is ext198, and the dialout extension is 204.

2. Device1 then gets the filename common_settings.xml from the AutoprovFile element and
downloads this file from the TFTP server at 10.0.1.3. and imports these settings. The device name is
set to CyberData Autoprovisioned, the SIP server is set to 10.0.0.253, and the port is set to 5060.

Device2 does the same except it downloads 0020f7020002.xml on boot and imports these values
instead. The Sip User ID is 500, password is ext500, and dialout extension is 555. Device2 then
downloads the common_settings.xml file and imports those values. The device name is set to
CyberData Autoprovisioned, the SIP server is set to 10.0.0.253, and the port is set to 5060.
