8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe FW 3.1
Overview
Introduction
The 8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe is a SIP compliant & m lticast capable IP
speaker designed for ed cation b t s itable for any application that req ires crisp clear
voice paging, lo d ringing,or alert/notification with m lti-color vis al alerting, as well as a
high visibility clock. The 8190S can be integrated with any Comm nication Server (hosted
or enterprise) that s pports 3rd party SIP endpoints or m lticast.
Instead of one speaker, the 8190S ses a m lti-speaker line array for improved so nd
distrib tion in classrooms. Controlled dispersion in the vertical axis red ces reflections
from floor and ceiling and provides more consistent direct so nd levels for listeners at
different distances from the speaker.
The 8190S’ b ilt-in strobe comes with 10 available flash patterns and 4 color settings
making the 8190S s itable for notification and alerting emergency, safety, and sec rity
events.
The 8190S’ feat re set s pporting 50 m lticast zones and 50 SIP extensions provides
near infinite zoning capabilities, and 10 SIP extensions activating a dio wav files from
memory enable lo d ringing with strobe, informational and emergency notification.
For voice paging, the 8190S is assigned a Page extension. When this SIP extension is
called, the 8190S will a to-answer and play the caller’s voice anno ncement over the
speaker with pre-config red strobe light pattern. The 8190S s pports G.722 wideband HD
Voice for enhanced intelligibility and clarity.
For lo d ringing a separate Page extension can be assigned. When this SIP extension is
called the 8190S will play a WAV file (tone, anno ncement, etc.) over the speaker with
pre-config red strobe light pattern. Several ringtones are incl ded in the 8190S and
c stom WAV files may also be ploaded (e.g. safety, sec rity, emergency alerts).
Consistent with other Algo IP Speakers, the 8190S incl des a microphone for monitoring
and adapting to ambient noise levels. This means voice paging and bell tones are always
heard b t never too lo d. The microphone can also be enabled for hands free talkback.
Unlike other Algo IP Speakers, the 8190S has an integrated digital clock, integrated call
b tton, and entrance sec rity door control capability.
The 8190S is config red sing central provisioning feat res, or by accessing a web
interface sing browsers s ch as Google Chrome or Firefox.
Note: The 8190S requires PoE+ power for full functionality. Re ular PoE may be
used only for initial testin or provisionin when full audio levels are not required.

8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe FW 3.1
Key Features
SIP Extensions
The 8190S connects to an on-premise or hosted comm nication server in the same way
as a SIP telephone. To register the 8190S with the server req ires the following
information:
1. IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.1) or domain name (e.g. myserver.com) of the SIP
Server
2. SIP extension (e.g. 3790)
3. A thentication ID
4. Password
The 8190S s pports two types of SIP extensions which behave differently – RING and
PAGE. One or both may be sed depending on the application. If the RING extension is
called the 8190S will not answer. Instead, it will play the selected WAV file and the light
pattern ntil the ringing stops. Typically the RING extension is programmed as part of a
h nt gro p so that it receives a ring signal sim ltaneo sly with one or more phones to
f nction as a lo d ringer in noisy or large areas.
If the PAGE extension is called, the 8190S will answer and allow paging over its internal
speaker. When the 8190S answers it will play a config rable tone to the caller so they
know when they can begin speaking. The same tone is also played over the speaker
before the anno ncement. If Paging to a single 8190S, talkback may be enabled sing the
integrated microphone. The a dio direction is determined by the speech activity of the
caller.
Speaker Array Technology
The 8190S ses a m lti-speaker line array for improved so nd distrib tion in classrooms.
Controlled dispersion in the vertical axis red ces reflections from floor and ceiling and
provides more consistent direct so nd levels for listeners at different distances from the
speaker. Wideband G.722 HD codec s pport provides improved speech intelligibility for
voice paging and a dio notification.
Multicasting
M lticast allows m ltiple nits to sim ltaneo sly play Ring or Page a dio. The 8190S can
be config red as a m lticast ‘Slave’ device to receive a dio stream from a m lticast
‘Master’ device. Any n mber/combination of Algo IP speaker, paging adapter, or strobe
endpoint can be config red as m lticast ‘Slaves’. This feat re provides scalability witho t
req iring each endpoint Slave to be registered with a SIP extension.
PolycomTM Group Paging
The 8190S s pport Polycom Gro p Paging. The 8190S can be added to a Polycom Gro p
Page so that voice paging is heard over Polycom telephone speakers and overhead
paging sim ltaneo sly.

8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe FW 3.1
Ambient Noise Compensation
The 8190S’ can a tomatically adj sts lo d ring and paging vol me to compensate for
backgro nd ambient noise. If ‘Ambient Noise Compensation’ is enabled, the alert vol me
will get lo der or q ieter by the same dB level as the ambient noise meas red j st prior to
the alert.
Configuration & Provisioning
Config ration can be done thro gh a web interface control panel or by sing the program
b ttons on the back of the nit. Central provisioning may also be sed to allow nits to be
pre-config red for a specific server prior to deployment in the field. Config ration files are
a tomatically downloaded from a server (via TFTP, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS) sing DHCP.
Reset Button
A recessed reset b tton (RST) on the back can be sed to reset the 8190S at time of
power p. To ret rn all the settings to the factory defa lt for the 8190S, wait ntil the bl e
LED flashes, then press and hold the reset b tton ntil the bl e LED begins a do ble flash
pattern. Release the reset b tton and allow the nit to complete its boot process. Do not
press the reset button until the blue LED begins flashing.
A reset will set all config ration options to factory defa lt incl ding the password.
Once booting has completed, pressing the reset b tton will ca se the speaker to
anno nce its IP address over the speaker.

8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe FW 3.1
Features
SIP Paging: One 8190S
The 8190S SIP speaker can be registered as a third-party SIP extension with a hosted or
enterprise Comm nications Server s pporting 3rd party SIP endpoints.
To register the speaker with the SIP server, se the Basic Settings > SIP tab in the web
interface to enter the Comm nication Server IP address, extension, sername, and
password. This information will be available from the IT Administrator.
If VLAN is sed, navigate to the Advanced Settings > Network tab to set VLAN options.
Important: once the speaker is usin VLAN you will need to be on the same VLAN
to access the web interface.
The speaker may now be accessed by dialing its assigned extension from a telephone,

8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe FW 3.1
Multicast Overview
In addition to the ring and page feat res, the 8190S is able to receive IP a dio m lticast
messages over the network to s pport larger deployment for both paging and
ring/notification. This provides a scalable and efficient method of b ilding large scale
notification sol tions.
An Algo 8301 can config red with a SIP Page Extension. When called from a phone, the
SIP registered 8301 a to-answers and plays the page a dio over its speaker.
Sim ltaneo sly, the registered 8301 endpoint broadcasts the a dio over the network
sing RTP m lticast to any n mber/combination of Algo IP speakers, paging adapters,
and strobes as req ired.
The Slave endpoints req ire a PoE network connection b t do not req ire registration to
the comm nication server.
M lticasting can also be sed to distrib te lo d ring or other alerting (e.g. safety, sec rity,
or emergency events) over m ltiple Algo endpoints (e.g. 8190S, 8186, 8188, 8128, 8201,
8301, and 8373).
SIP Paging: Multiple 8190S (Using Multicast)
To se 8190S m lticast feat re, set p an 8301 Paging Adapter & Sched ler (sold
separately), as a M lticast master.
The Master device will page normally while sim ltaneo sly streaming a dio to the slave
speakers. The Slave speakers do not req ire SIP extensions and do not need to register
with the SIP Comm nication Server.
To enable m lticast streaming from the 8301 Paging Adapter & Sched ler go to its web
interface and navigate to the Basic Settings > Multicast tab. Choose m lticast mode
‘Master/Sender’ and zone ‘All Call’. The m lticast addresses pre-pop lated in the table,
nder Advanced Settings > Advanced Multicast section, will work in most cases and
sho ld only be altered for rare cases.
To enable m lticast monitoring in the 8190S, go to the web interface for each speaker and
again navigate to the Basic Settings > Multicast tab. This time tho gh, choose m lticast
mode ‘Slave/Receiver’ There is no need to select a zone as the speaker will
a tomatically monitor the ‘All Call’ zone IP address.
The page pre-anno nce tone is generated from the Master. The following options are
valid for each m lticast Slave speaker:
•Increase or Decrease Speaker Vol me
•Enable Ambient Noise Monitoring (speaker vol me adapts to backgro nd noise)

8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe FW 3.1
SIP Paging: Multiple Speakers (Using Individual SIP extensions)
In some cases, it may be desirable for every speaker to have a SIP extension. M lticast
may still be sed to page m ltiple speakers b t each speaker can also be called
individ ally or generate a call when appropriately config red.
A speaker config red as a SIP M lticast Slave will give its highest priority to the ‘Priority
Call’ zone. Other than the ‘Priority Call’ zone, a page sing its SIP extension, has priority
over all other m lticast zones.
Comm nication Servers with the capability of dialing many SIP extensions sim ltaneo sly
for paging may be able to create zones by calling “page gro ps” and also page telephone
speakers in conj nction with overhead speakers.
SIP Activated Notification Alerts
In addition to voice paging, the 8190S can play a dio files and flash light patterns for
emergency, safety, and sec rity anno ncements, c stomer service, shift changes, etc.
A dio WAV files can be stored in speaker memory and played over the speaker in
response to an event s ch as a ring or relay inp t, and also m lticast to other Algo SIP
endpoints on the network. See Additional Features > Emergency Alerts and Additional
Features > Input/Output for more details.
Background Music Streaming
The 8301 Paging Adapter & Sched ler (sold separately), set as a M lticast master, can
stream backgro nd m sic to other Algo slave devices on the network from a m sic so rce
connected to the 8301’s AUX Inp t.
When m lticasting m sic, ens re that A tomatic Gain Control (AGC) is ‘Disabled’ in Basic
Settings > Features tab on all the slave devices. Meanwhile, on the M lticast master
device, select ‘G.722’ for the ‘Master O tp t Codec’ setting in Advanced Settings >
Advanced Multicast tab.
PolycomTM Group Paging
The 8190S SIP Classroom Speaker with Strobe has been designed to s pport Polycom
Gro p Paging.
The 8190S can be added to a Polycom Gro p Page so that voice paging is heard over
Polycom telephone speakers and overhead paging sim ltaneo sly.

TLS for SIP Signaling and Provisioning
Algo devices s pport Transport Layer Sec rity (TLS). This feat re adds sec rity by
ens ring that Algo prod cts can tr st the hosted SIP server. This is sef l for when third-
party devices or attackers may try to intercept, replicate, or alter Algo prod cts, and try to
connect to the server. TLS protocol will ens re that third parties cannot read/modify any
act al data. Previo sly sec rity was less of a concern beca se phone systems were on
isolated networks, b t hosted services are becoming increasingly more common. Using a
hosted SIP service req ires traffic to be sent over the p blic internet and th s m ch more
s sceptible to attacks. Signed certificates are an important piece in the Algo device’s
operation, to ens re the sec rity, integrity, and privacy of its comm nication. Algo
components that se TLS are Provisioning and SIP Signaling.
These Algo devices each come pre-loaded with certificates from a list of tr sted certificate
a thorities (CA), which are installed in the hardware at the time of man fact re. Note
these pre-installed tr sted certificates are not visible to sers and are separate from the
‘certs’ folder.
The TLS handshake happens to make s re that the client and server can tr st each other,
and once that tr st is established, the two parties can freely send encrypted data and
decrypt any data that they receive. After the TLS handshake process is complete, a TLS
session is established, and the server and client can then exchange messages that are
symmetrically encrypted with shared (pre-master) secret key.

Provisioning
Provisioning is sec red by setting the ‘Download Method’ to ‘HTTPS’ ( nder the
Advanced Settings > Provisioning tab)
Setting provisioning to ‘HTTPS’ prevents config ration files from being read by nwanted
third-party devices/ attackers. This resolves the potential risk of having sensitive data:
admin passwords and SIP credentials stolen.
Important: To verify the server you must ‘Enable’ the ‘Validate Server Certificate’
option. This then checks if the certificate that is provided by the server is si ned by
any of the CAs included in the list of trusted CAs (used by the Debian infrastructure
and Mozilla browsers). If we receive a certificate si ned by any of these CAs, then
that server will be trusted. Certificates can also be manually uploaded usin the
‘File Mana er’.
The ‘Validate Server Certificate’ parameter can also be enabled thro gh provisioning:
prov.download.cert = 1

SIP Signaling
SIP Signaling is sec red by setting ‘SIP Transportation’ to ‘TLS’ ( nder the Advanced
Settings >Advanced SIP tab)
Setting ‘SIP Transportation’ from ‘A to’ (defa lt) to ‘TLS’, ens res the encryption of SIP
traffic. Setting ‘SDP SRTP Offer’ to ‘Standard’ or ‘Optional’, means the SIP call’s RTP data
will be left nencrypted if the other party does not s pport SRTP. Setting ‘SDP SRTP
Offer’ to ‘Standard’, encrypts RTP voice data, meaning the normal a dio RTP packets will
now be sec re (SRTP). This means SIP calls will be rejected if other party does not
s pport SRTP. The ‘Standard’ option sec res the a dio data between parties, by making
s re that it’s not left o t in the open for third parties to later reconstr ct and listen to.
Important: In order for a SIP server to validate the Al o device, an additional
certificate has to be installed on the Al o device manually. For Firmware v1.7, the
only way to add this user certificate file is to use a ‘.pem’, ‘.crt’, or ‘.cer’ file type
extension and have the file named ‘sipclient’. This is done by manually addin a file
named ‘sipclient.pem’, which contains a device certificate and private key, to the
‘certs’ folder (under the ‘Advanced Settin s’ tab File Mana er’).
