1. How do I update my firmware?
Check to see if your current firmware is the latest version before attempting to update. Download the latest version firmware which includes
the Update Firmware Utility.
To upload the speaker firmware from your PC, see Section 2.4 of the VoIP Paging Gateway Operation Guide.
3. What does this product do?
Our Paging Gateway is a SIP endpoint that converts analog audio to digital and passes it to an FXS input like a Bogen Zone Controller.
4. So how does this product support 99 zones?
Thee 99 zones supported are with a Bogen-type Zone Controller, in that our product is able to recognize the two-digit DTMF tone the user enters
after it receives a cal and passes this tonal information to the Zone Controller so that the specific paging zone associated with the call can
receive the audio.
5. So your product is not a Zone Controller capable of creating and managing the paging zones for speakers in a building?
Correct. Our Paging Gateway is not a Zone Controller. We do have a version of our Paging Gateway that has four audio-out connectors that can
be used to configure zone combinations based on 4 lines out. We also have a Paging Server product for use with our VoIP speakers that can configure zones
in software rather than zones based on fixed wiring associated with non-networked analog speakers.
6. Our zone controller only has 9 zones and one digit DTMF tones for paging zones so how do I use your two-digit DTMF tone Paging Gateway?
Most single digit DTMF zone controllers ignore the second digit, so be sure the first digit entered is the zone you desire to be paged.
7. Which IP-PBX servers does your Paging Gateway interoperate with?
Our Paging Gateway interoperates with the IP-PBX servers in the following link.
8. I am wanting to purchase a Viking paging amplifier to work with your Paging Gateway product and wanted to know which model would you recommend?
Viking model # CPA-7B would work well because it has an FXS input.
9. What external paging systems have you integrated the paging gateway into?
We successfully integrated the VoIP Paging Gateway into the following paging systems: Bogen PCM 2000 and Viking model # CPA-7B.
10. Are you able to traverse the NAT with your IP paging products?
Our IP paging products are programmed to traverse the NAT using Session Border Controllers (SBCs) of the VoIP hosting company or service provider. The SBCs act as an outbound proxy and manage the SIP traffic between
the SIP server and the SIP endpoint behind the NAT. For more information on SBCs, go here.
11. I was able to register your device with our SIP server, but when I tried to enter a two-digit DTMF tone there was no audio.
Make sure your SIP phone is set to 101 for the DTMF payload type (Out of Band RFC2833).
12. What is the pinout for the RJ11 connector used on the Gateway?
13. How do I set up a Valcom 2001A Zone controller?
Complete the following steps:
1. Connect the Gateway's modular jack to the J3 connector on the Valcom unit. (Note: SW-1 should be off. Power cycle the Valcom after configuration.)
2. Set the Gateway ringout to No.
3. Test by using the Audio Test function on the webpage.
4. Setup the SIP settings as per the IP-PBX type.
14. I am trying to hook up a Bogen PCM 2000 paging system with a PCM-TIM module. What are the settings required on the Bogen?
TEL INT SEL dip switches to 1-5 OFF, 6 ON, 7 OFF.
This configuration can be found on page 6, PBX Station Access/CO line in the Bogen manual.
15. After a period of time, my device stops working or is unreachable.
This is a common problem when the re-registration time value is not set correctly.
On our device, you need to make sure that the re-registration time value (in minutes) is
less than that is set on the IP-PBX server.
16. On an Asterisk-based VoIP SIP PBX system, the CyberData SIP Device status is "Busy" or "Unreachable". I have set up both the CyberData VoIP SIP device and the PBX extension information for the device. I can see the device on the network, am able to PING it, and can bring up the device web page with a browser. However, when I try to call it from a phone extension, I see the word "Busy" or "Unreachable" in the Asterisk log.
In the PBX setup page for the extension of the CyberData device, find the Qualify= value and change it to NO. If the Qualify= value requires a numeric value, then change it to 0.
Note that on some Asterisk systems (such as Intuitive Voice) this value is called the Heartbeat= value. Set the Heartbeat= value to NO, and then save the settings.
Also, on the product's SIP Setup page, make sure that the Register Expiration (minutes) setting is set to less than 6 minutes (3 minutes is good) because it needs to be a value less than the Asterisk default value of 6 minutes. Save the settings after changing the Register Expiration (minutes) setting.
17. I upgraded my 3CX PBX server to 7.1 and now my Rev B CyberData VoIP Ceiling speaker and My VoIP Paging Amplifier do not stay registered with the server.
There is a 3CX version 7.1 registration / timing bug. To correct this problem, complete the following steps:
1. Log into the 3CX PBX system, and select SETTINGS -> ADVANCED -> CUSTOM PARAMETERS.
2. Scroll down to select the NONCEEXPIRATION parameter.
3. Change the NONCEEXPIRATION value from 1 to 2 and save the changes.
Note: There are pictures of the 3CX PBX pages and parameters at the end of the document at this link.
18. If I wanted to power the device by using the auxiliary power connector, what type of power supply do I need?
The power connection requires a +48v 380mA (min) power brick.
The connector is 2.5mm with a positive center.
Cisco's CP-PWR-CUBE-3 power brick is approved.
19. I am unable to connect with the unit when it is plugged into a Cisco SLM 224P switch.
The cables or switch ports that you are connecting to are set in switch or hub mode instead of endpoint stations. The MDIX setting needs to be changed to MDI since our VoIP products are end stations.
From the Cisco SLM 224P User Guide:
Change to MDI:
MDI / MDIX Displays the Media Dependent Interface (MDI) / Media
Dependent Interface with Crossover (MDIX) status on the port. Hubs and
switches are deliberately wired the opposite of the way end stations are
wired, so that when a hub or switch is connected to an end station, a
straight through Ethernet cable can be used, and the pairs are matched up
properly. When two hubs or switches are connected to each other, or two
end stations are connected to each other, a crossover cable is used to
ensure that the correct pairs are connected. The possible field values are:
- MDIX Use for hubs and switches.
- MDI Use for end stations.
