PREPARATION
Connecting a headset or handset to the PC
To talk, listen, etc. by using the PC master station, connect a commercially available headset or handset to the PC on which the PC
master station will run.
When a talk cannot be switched properly between you and the target side, adjust the microphone volume and/or speaker volume
*
on the PC master station. If the adjustment is insufficient, also adjust volume on the headset or handset.

INTRODUCTION
The IS system is a video security communication system especially designed for applications in facilities such as office buildings,
factories, schools, hospitals, and prisons. This product is an application to be installed in a PC to use it as a PC master station in the
IS system. The PC master station can be used almost as the same as other IP master stations adding some unique functions.
PRECAUTIONS
General precautions
1. For wiring, specify CAT5e straight cable.
2. Due to the environmental sound around the unit, it may hinder
smooth communication, but this is not a malfunction.
3. The outline of video images displayed by video door station may
differ from that of the actual person(s) or background, but this is
not a malfunction.
4. Aiphone assumes no responsibility for corruption of saved
information (such as changes to or deletion of saved information).
Please be aware of this in advance.
5. Warm-color lighting shining on the door station may change the
tint of the picture on the monitor.
Notes on using this product
Lip-sync is not performed for audio and video in the PC master
•
station.
Depending on the network environment and computer, it may not be
•
useable.
There are times when audio and video may be delayed in the PC
•
master station due to encoding, decoding, or the network.
Depending on the network environment or the computer's
•
performance, operations may not be carried out normally, such as
interrupted audio or video, and delayed frame rate decrease.
When operating PC master station in succession, the operation may
•
become invalid.
The times for the system and the PC master station are not
•
synchronized.
We recommend a 100BASE-TX wired LAN network.
•
Notes on communication
When communicating via the PC master station, use a commercially
•
available headset or commercially available handset to prevent
feedback. When using a headset or handset, the call tone does not
sound from the computer's speaker. Confirm the call by the headset
(or handset) or the screen display.
During communication, if you speak before the other person
•
has finished talking, your voice may not come through clearly.
Communication will proceed smoothly if you wait until the other
person has finished before speaking.
If there are loud noises (such as children crying, music playing, or
•
strong winds) around the computer or the door station, the sound
may break up and be difficult to hear.
A hands-free (VOX) system has been implemented for
•
communication. Even if you use a headset or handset with the PC
master station, you cannot carry out simultaneous conversations.
(Communication is not full duplex.)
The talk and call tone volumes vary depending on the PC master
•
station settings, computer settings, and headset or handset volume.
Pay careful attention to the volume when monitoring or talking.
Notices
We will under no conditions be liable for damage that occurs due
•
to failures in network equipment; failures due to internet providers
and cell phone companies; failures such as disconnected lines and
other losses in communication, which render it impossible to provide
this service or in any way delay this service due to causes outside
of our responsibility; or if an error or missing data occurs during
transmission.
We will under no conditions be liable for damage caused if a
•
customer's password or transmitted information are leaked through
bugging or unlawful computer access over Internet communication.
We will under no conditions be liable for damage that occurs due
•
to the inability to communicate due to malfunctions, problems, or
operational errors in this product.
We will under no conditions be liable for any damages or losses
•
resulting from this product's contents or specifications.

prior notice.
Please note that product specifications may be changed for the sake
•
of improvement without prior notice.
Please be aware that it is the customer's responsibility to ensure that

their computer is secure. We will under no conditions be liable for
security failures.
This system is not intended for life support or crime prevention. It is
•
just a supplementary means of conveying information. Aiphone will
under no conditions be liable for loss of life or property which occurs
while the system is being operated.
When the PC master station is initialized, all the registrations are
•
returned to factory default settings. Follow the setup procedure for
the PC master station again.

OUTLINE OF OPERATIONS
The following describes the outline of operations you can perform with a PC master station.
Communication
On a sub station (door station or room sub station), you can call up to 20 preset (PC) master stations in your site at the same time.
•
Or you can call up to19 (PC) master stations in your site and a remote site (up to 20 (PC) master stations at the remote site).
On a PC master station, the communication method can be selected from the hands-free mode or the press-to-talk mode.
•
(→P. 13)
You can also communicate with a remote site (a pilot station registered in the site).
•
Transferring
When communicating with a received call on a PC master station, you can transfer it to another (PC) master station in your site.
(→P. 17)
You can also make a transfer setting for transferring calls to a designated (PC) master station automatically.
*
For a call from another (PC) master station, you can transfer it only when you are communicating with it (not to the remote site).
*
You can also transfer a call to a remote site. (However, you cannot transfer a call received from a remote site to another remote
*
site.)

Paging
On a PC master station, you can initiate paging or chime paging to the selected zone(s). All the stations previously registered to the
zone(s) receive the paging or chime. (→P. 27)
You can also call another (PC) master station or a sub station individually by direct voice call. The receiver can reply in the hands-
*
free mode.
You can also make paging or chime paging to the registered external speaker(s).
*
You can also make paging or chime paging to a specified zone in a remote site when the site has chime sources. (When the site
*
does not have a central control unit, the chime paging does not initiate.)
Monitoring
On a (PC) master station, you can monitor a sub station in your site.
You can also initiate the scan-monitoring (monitoring multiple preset stations sequentially).
For an audio door station or room sub station, you can monitor sounds only.
(→P. 26)

RECEIVING AND ANSWERING A CALL ON THE PC MASTER STATION
The following describes the communication method using a PC master station.
When receiving a call from a remote site, the operation methods are the same as described below, however it may take a longer
*
time for some operations and their responses. For example, there may be a time difference between a call starting at a remote site
and the call tone ringing on the target (PC) master station in your site.
Receiving a call
The call tone rings, and the corresponding display appears.
1
The call tone from a sub station differs from the setting in the Setting window. (→"SETTING MANUAL")
*
e.g.) When called from a video door station
When an audio door station, room sub station or another (PC) master station calls in, the station type image is displayed. (The
*
image differs from the calling station type.) When called from a remote site, the remote site symbol image is displayed.
An incoming call from a (PC) master station will be a direct voice call. (However, when the PRIVACY mode is set to “Privacy 2”,
*
you will be notified of an incoming call by the display information and call tone.)
NOTES:
A PC master station cannot receive two or more calls at a time.
•
A call or talk may not be possible when the communication path is fully occupied.
•
Video images at the target video door station may not appear on the monitor when the video path is fully occupied even though a call or talk
