INSTALLATION
Operation
The VIP-580 provides IP loudspeaker paging access via network connection to customer telephone system or stand alone telephone set. Interface to customer telephone system can be via SIP registration, FXO or FXS port (with appropriate PBX connection and Valcom VIP-81x/82x).
Mounting
The VIP-580 is designed for surface mounting on a solid surface. Remove the grille from the backbox enclosure and disconnect the FlexHorn wire harness from the network interface board. Pre-drilled 13/64” mounting holes in the back of the enclosure are designed to fit a single gang, double gang or octagon outlet box. If not attaching to an outlet box, use the enclosure as a template and mark the location of mounting holes. Depending on wall construction type, prepare the mounting hole locations on the wall to securely attach the enclosure. Insert Ethernet wiring through large hole in rear panel of enclosure and connect to the Ethernet RJ-45 socket. Use mounting hardware (not included) appropriate for the wall type to securely mount the enclosure to the wall or outlet box. With the enclosure securely mounted, reconnect the FlexHorn wiring harness to the network interface board and install the FlexHorn faceplate to the enclosure using the four screws provided.
Power Connections
The only method of powering a VIP-580 IP FlexHorn is via a Power over Ethernet (PoE) network switch or power injector meeting the
802.3af specification.
Network Connection
The VIP-580 has one Ethernet RJ-45 network connector on the circuit board. Connect an Ethernet patch cable from the network switch to the VIP-580 Ethernet RJ-45 socket before attaching the grille to the enclosure.
Signal Connections
Signal connections from the network interface to the FlexHorn are provided through an attached wiring harness pre-wired at the factory. If the horn was disconnected while mounting the enclosure, reconnect the two-wire harness to screw terminal P3 on the network interface board before attaching the grille to the enclosure.
Status Indicator Lights
The VIP-580 Network Interface has 2 status indicator lights on the RJ-45 Ethernet connector. One LED (left corner) indicates Link when lit, the other LED flashes to indicate network activity.
Setup
Information specific to your application will need to be programmed into the VIP-580 using a computer. The PC used for programming should be connected to the same subnet as the VIP-580. Setup will be done using the IP Solutions Setup Tool. The IP Solutions Setup Tool may be downloaded from the Valcom web site at http://www.valcom.com.
