1 Introduction
1.1 About the Annuncicom
Congratulations on the purchase of your Annuncicom from Barix AG.
What exactly is the Annuncicom The Annuncicom is a network-based intercom, featuring fast setup,
operation over existing network connections, flexible use and easy reconfiguration.
The Annuncicom can work with other Annuncicom devices in a standalone configuration or can
seamlessly inter-operate with IT equipment like PCs.
Up to two buttons (Talk & Door, Talk & Emergency etc) plus relay output interface are available, which
allow the use of the Annuncicom in talk-back and door entry solutions.
Applications include
- Door intercom, talking over TCP/IP networks
- Alarming in public infrastructure, for example airports
- Remote paging connectivity via networks
- Residential intercom with network connectivity
- Automatic announcement systems
Each device can be configured to directly talk to up to 8 targets, via broadcast, or with the last calling
station.
An unlimited number of communication partners can be selected via web browser or serial interface
(directory connection).
The Annuncicom is the ideal solution to monitor entrances and to provide intercom and alarming
functionality in large residential, commercial and military building complexes like airports, office
buildings, malls and residential housing areas. It can also be used along highways or in tunnels to
provide IP based intercom capabilities.
No need for extra wiring when using existing network infrastructure or operating wireless, hence saving
implementation time and costs. Using only standard TCP/IP protocols, connecting remote facilities is
simple, and no changes to the existing WAN infrastructure are necessary.

IP Address
Enter the 4 values of the desired device IP address e.g.:
"0.0.0.0" for automatic discovery (DHCP/Bootp, IPzator, AutoIP), "192.168.0.12" for an internal LAN
Default: "0.0.0.0"
Netmask
Enter the 4 values of the desired Static IP e.g.:
"0.0.0.0" for a default Netmask depending on the IP Address used, "255.255.255.0" for a C class network
Default: "255.255.255.0"
Gateway IP Address
Enter the 4 values of the desired Gateway IP address e.g.:
"0.0.0.0" for no Gateway, "192.168.0.1" for a the LAN Gateway.
Note: The Gateway has to be set only when connecting to other devices over the WAN (through a router).
Default: "0.0.0.0"
DHCP Host Name
Name of the device sent in a DHCP request. If left empty, a name based on the device's MAC address is
generated automatically. Enter up to 15 Characters.
Type of Service/DSCP
ToS value used for TCP and UDP streaming.
DSCP(Differentiated Service Code Point) supersedes IP4 ToS value and uses the same byte.
check for DSCP services available in your network to set this value. Valid values are 0-63.
Default value is 0.
3.4.2 Audio settings
These settings adjust the audio input and output.
Input section
Input source
Choose the desired input source.
All input sources except "Line stereo" are mono. If you are using an Annuncicom 200 a further option is
available to select the SUB connector for Aiphone use. If this is selected the audio output will also be directed
to the SUB interface. NOTE: Aiphone panels have a "ring" button which when pressed produces a signal on
the SUB interface. This signal is used to trigger digital input 0 on the Annuncicom. However, this signal may
also be triggered by audio input and is, therefore, filtered out by the FW. For this filter to be effective, Aiphone
panels should only be connected to the SUB interface if the SUB interface is selected as an input source.
Default setting is "Mic" .
Speaker Also As Microphone
A speaker can be wired to an Annuncicom so that it can also be used as a microphone.
In this case connect the speaker between (+) (A5) and ground (A3 or 4) instead of between (+) and (-) and
connect (+) to the Microphone Input (A1). You will find the pin outs in the Annuncicom Quick Install guides.
Barix Annuncicom Family
For proper operation of the device this feature should only be selected if the speaker is wired as described.
Microphone gain
Choose the desired gain ( "21" - "43.5" dB) for the microphone.
Default setting is "21" dB.
A/D amplifier gain
Choose the desired gain ( "-3" - "19.5" dB) for the A/D amplifier.

The "Stereo" mode lets both channels through.
The "Bridge" mode creates a mono differential left/right signal for connecting a single double-impedance
speaker as a bridge between left and right channel.
Note: The "Stereo" and "Bridge" settings apply for stereo hardware only.
The output mode should correspond to the audio encoding used. The MPEG encoding is stereo, whereas
uLaw, aLaw and PCM can transmit only monophonic signal.

Supervision (Annuncicom 155 only)
Speaker Supervision
On the Annuncicom 155 the attached loudspeaker can be supervised by the hardware. The supervision is
done using a 11Hz tone injected into the signal. Status of the speaker is then displayed on the device's home
page. Configure the supervision:
• permanently off - to disable the 11Hz tone and speaker monitoring
• permanently on - to enable the speaker monitoring permanently
• periodic - to enable the speaker monitoring in 1-minute intervals (10s tone pulses)
Default: "permanently off" .
3.4.3 Streaming settings
These settings adjust the streaming mode, parameters and destinations.

Annuncicom User Manual Version 4.07
Own Name
You can enter the name of the Annuncicom here. This name will be returned when using the DISCOVER
command (see technical documentation)
Default setting is "" .
Streaming mode
"send always" will stream always
"send on TALK" will stream if the TALK button (command) is pressed
"send on Level" will stream if the incoming audio signal is above the Trigger level
"auto answer" will stream back for the Post Trigger Play duration after a stream has been received
"receive only" can receive a stream but will never send one
Default setting is "send on TALK" .
Trigger level
Is only used when Streaming mode is "on Level" .
Set to a value between 0 and 32767.
Open the Device status page and look for the Input peak value to get a hint for the trigger.
Default setting is "1000" .
Pre Trigger Start
Pre Trigger Start can be adjusted to prevent cut offs when audio should be sent earlier than detected. It
defines the duration of the stream used before the actual trigger occurred.
This feature is normally used in combination with the send on level feature.
However, this parameter has a further use, to determine the receive stream strategy.
If 0, a minimum audio delay strategy is chosen at the receive side. Otherwise a minimum audio loss strategy
is chosen.
Default setting is "0" milliseconds.
Post Trigger Play
Post Trigger Play can be adjusted to prevent cut offs when audio should be sent longer than detected. It
defines the amount of time that the device will continue streaming after the actual trigger has been cleared.
This feature is normally used with the send on level feature. When Streaming mode is set to "auto answer"
this defines the duration the device will stream back after a stream has been received.
Default setting is "0" milliseconds.
Buffer Underrun Mode (TCP)
The Buffer Underrun Mode (TCP) defines the action if a TCP stream is slower than the real stream from the
encoder. In this case the output streaming buffer underruns and cannot hold older data anymore. The device
can then "disconnect" the TCP connection or it can "skip" the stream directly to the encoder stream without
disconnecting TCP.
Default setting is "disconnect" .
Background Stream TCP Flow Control
The Background Stream TCP Flow Control defines data receiving strategy of stream interrupted by a priority
stream (so called background stream). If a priority stream is played, data in original stream can be either
accepted and thrown away or the TCP connection can be stopped.
Use throw away data if your streaming source is streaming in real time (e.g. Annuncicom). Use stop stream
when the streaming source is sending data as fast as possible (e.g. when sending a file from a PC).
This setting is only for receiving data and does not affect UDP streams.
BARIX AG | 28. Jan. 2014 | Configuration | Page 18/54

Annuncicom User Manual Version 4.07
Streaming Strategy
The Streaming Strategy defines how a packet is built and sent. On "lowest latency" the encoded data will be
sent directly after the encoding. On "optimal package" the packet will be filled up before sending.
Default setting is "lowest latency" .
Non MP3 Packet Size
The Non MP3 Packet Size defines with how many bytes a non MP3 packet will be filled up before it is sent.
Set to a value between 1 and 1200.
Default setting is "1200" .
Play Buffer
Defines the amount of bytes that will be stored before playing the received stream. Lower this value to
minimize delay, increase this value to prevent dropouts.
Default setting is "4096" Bytes.
Receive Timeout
Defines the amount of time between the end of a received stream and switching to being able to send.
Default setting is "200" msec.
TCP Priority Rx Port
Enter the port number for receiving a priority TCP stream. This stream always takes precedence.
Set to a value between 0 (disabled) and 65535.
Default port is "0" .
UDP Priority Rx Port
Enter the port number for receiving a priority UDP stream. This stream always takes precedence.
Set to a value between 0 (disabled) and 65535.
Default port is "0" .
Priority Message Minimum Volume
This is the guaranteed minimum volume for the priority message (received through UDP or TCP Priority
Streaming Listen Port). If the current volume is less than this and priority message begins, the volume is set
to this volume and reset back to original value when the message ends.
Default: "25%" .
UDP Receiver Port
Enter the port number for receiving a UDP stream.
Set to a value between 0 (disabled) and 65535.
Default port for UDP is "3030" .
UDP Tx Source Port
This setting is only used when working with a custom software application. Enter the source port number to
be used when sending a UDP stream. Set to a value between 0 and 65535. When set to 0 the port defined in
the Stream table destination entry is taken. Or if Stream destination is set to "origin source" then the UDP
Receiver Port is used.
Default setting is "0" .
Radio Path
Enter a radio path to listen to the transmitted stream of this Barix Annuncicom using a device that is able to
play MP3 radio stations (also PC software like WinAmp).
The URL to connect is http://x.x.x.x/p. Where x.x.x.x is the IP address of this device and /p is this Radio
path.
Example: http://192.168.0.24/xstream
The device can serve up to 6 radio streams.
Default setting is "/xstream" .

Relay While Audio
Activate relay when sound is coming out of the analog output and deactivate when not.
Default setting is "OFF" .
Stream
There are two ways streaming can be set up:
1) Automatically by responding to the last calling station
(to the device from where the last communication came, viz. "to the origin source").
2) By means of Tables containing IP addressing information.
Refer to section 3.5 Table Settings for information on configuring tables.
Choose if the stream should be sent to the defined entries in the table or "to the origin source".
Current Table
There are 8 tables available, each with 8 entries. Only one table is in use at any particular time.
This parameter shows the current table selected over the remote command interface or the home page.
Multicast Address
Enter a Multicast address on which to receive an audio stream. As receive port the "UDP Receiver Port" is
taken. At start up the device will join the multicast group by periodically issuing IGMP join group messages.
Default setting is no address set, "0.0.0.0" .
3.4.4 I/O Settings
These settings adjust the device behaviour for startup, inputs and outputs (attached buttons, the serial CTS
signal and the relay pulse duration).
Command Broadcasting
This option is for backward compatibility with firmware versions prior to 1.16. If you want "r=c=" commands
to be broadcast (UDP broadcast), set to compatibility mode . Otherwise choose secure mode , then "r=c="
commands will be sent only if stream to origin source is set and the origin source is known (command will be
sent to the last partner).
