1. Connect one or more PCs to the network and install the IP Intercom HelpDesk
SoftwareoneachPC.Ifcallforwardingisused,Extronrecommendsthatno
more than six PCs should be set up for call forwarding.
Seechapter5for instructions on how to install and use the software.
2.
Connectuptoamaximumof250intercoms
(per help desk PC) to a network
usingstraight‑throughcable.Extronrecommendsthatlargesystemsshouldbe

3.
Configure the
intercoms
and set up the intercom list for each console PC. Each
console could be set up to monitor a different group of intercoms, but most
likely the lists will overlap.
In the example shown above, an installation in one building of a college
campus, each room (classroom, lab, or office) contains an
intercom.
Configure

orIPI204models,congureasecondbuttononeachintercomtocontactthe
campus security department. However, only the intercoms located in physical
sciences classrooms and laboratories have a third button configured to contact
the PC console in the lab stockroom. Only the intercoms installed in offices
haveabuttonconguredtocalltheregistrationdepartment’sconsole.
4. Once the system is configured, each intercom user presses and holds a button
to initiate talk mode. The button glows bright amber, and the Monitor LED
lights.
