System Requirements and Limitations
The VoIP telephones require Power-over-Ethernet (POE) or a local 24 to 48 V dc power source for
operation. Two VoIP telephones can be connected in a peer-to-peer configuration without the need for a
LAN. However, a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet network with a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) server is
required for systems containing three or more VoIP telephones. Conferences are limited by the
customer’s LAN media capabilities and the services available at each end point.

PUB.42004-441H
HANDS-FREE VOIPTELEPHONE MANUAL PAGE 3 OF 28
In addition to direct point-to-point dialing (peer-to-peer), directly or via a SIP server, each telephone is
capable of receiving a multicast broadcast. Multicast allows a single audio stream to be sent to multiple
end points simultaneously to achieve multi-point paging or public address functionality over IP.
Multicast requires the use of a SIP server that specifically supports multicast functionality and each
telephone must be configured (enabled) to receive multicast packets.
Tips for VoIP Subscribers
If you have or are thinking of subscribing to an interconnected VoIP service, you should:
Provide your accurate physical address to your interconnected VoIP service provider to ensure that
emergency services can quickly be dispatched to your location.
Be familiar with your VoIP service provider’s procedures for updating your address and promptly
update address information in the event of a change.
Have a clear understanding of any limitations of your 911 service.
Inform children, babysitters, and visitors about your VoIP service and its 911 limitations, if any.
If your power is out or your internet connection is down, be aware that your VoIP service may not
work. Consider installing a backup power supply, maintaining a traditional telephone line, or having
a wireless telephone as a backup.
If you have questions about interconnected VoIP and 911 or about VoIP in general, see

Receiving a Call
When a RED ALERT® VoIP Emergency Telephone is called, the unit automatically goes off-hook (autoanswer) and a conversation can take place.
Multicast Broadcast
When making a multicast call, the SIP server will send a paging request to a specific IP address and
expect multiple telephones to accept and play the subsequent audio. GAI-Tronics VoIP telephones can be
programmed for up to eight multicast addresses to permit the receipt of multicast broadcasts from
different sources or to enable zoning of broadcasts. Each multicast address can be assigned a priority (via
programming) to define broadcast override. A telephone with multicast enabled can still make and
receive normal calls (peer-to-peer or SIP server). Normal calls can be assigned a priority level, defining
whether calls can override multicasts or vice versa.

Preventive Maintenance for Models 397-70x, 397-70xFS, 398-70x, and 398-
701FS
Stainless steel does require maintenance to prevent corrosion from occurring. Different installation
locations may require more regular maintenance than others, depending on the environment and exposure
to airborne contaminants. The following maintenance steps should be performed on a regular basis or
when corrosion is first noticed on your Model 397-70x, 397-70xFS, 398-70x, and 398-701FS Telephones.
Cleaning
For general cleaning, wipe surface with a cleanser or cleanser and water mixture. Any cleanser that is
safe for glass is usually safe for stainless steel. Wipe dry.
If corrosion or rusting is noticed, remove with a non-abrasive commercial cleanser and water. Rub
stained areas in the same direction as the existing grain. Stubborn stains may be removed with a paste
made from magnesium oxide, ammonia, and water. Wipe clean, rinse with water, and dry.
Prevention
Automotive wax provides the best results in preventing corrosion on stainless steel. Simply apply wax,
let dry to a haze, and buff to a shine with a clean dry cloth. This application should protect the telephone
surface for many months as it will allow natural re-formation of the chromium oxide layer.
DO NOT use steel wool, sandpaper, mineral acids, bleaches, or chlorine cleansers on the stainless steel.
