Overview / Description
Package Contents
The RY-IP44 is a Barix “Barionet 50” with proprietary Aiphone rmware for use with IPW-1A, IS, or IX Series Stations.
The 4 individually programmable contact outputs can be used to trigger remote door release or external signaling,
triggering a contact closure while calling, communicating, or both calling and communicating.
The 4 individually programmable contact inputs can be used to trigger a call between two IX Series stations. For example,
use this function to trigger during an invalid card swipe, motion detector activation, or selective calling from multiple call
buttons.
The RY-IP44 is also used as the Mobile App Server for IX Mobile. An RY-IP44 is needed for every 8 instances of IX Mobile
and is used to alert the mobile device if it goes out of wireless network range.
When using the RY-IP44 only as a Mobile App Server for IX Mobile, begin on page 6 as SIF and CGI are not used in
this instance. Refer to pages 8-14 for steps on creating a system with IX Mobile and conguring IX Mobile.
Note that the RY-IP44 is not a PoE device, and requires a separate 9-30v DC power supply. It is recommended to use the
Aiphone PS-1208UL.
• General understanding of IX Series programming
• 9-30V DC power supply (sold separately)
• Unique IP address for each adaptor
