Line Type Drop Down Menu
The Line Type drop down menu identifies the operating mode for Line number 1 and 2. The line type for all other operating
modes is displayed on the window. Selection of the line type enables the fields necessary to enter the setup information for the
selected line type.
Available selections for this field are:
Local Mode – The radio is connected directly to the IP-223 allowing for simple migration and full local control of the
radio.
Tone Mode – The IP-223, based on Ethernet traffic, generates the keytones required to control standard, tone-equipped
radio circuit. This allows an existing tone decoder and radio to be connected. This mode also
supports a parallel analog console for local control.
Console Mode – Allows the use of existing tone-based consoles to the VoIP network. The IP-223 decodes standard tones,
converts it into Ethernet traffic for another IP-223 and optional parallel IP consoles.
Phone Mode – Using a PIB or TDI, a line on the IP-223 is used to connect to an analog phone line.
iDEN Radio – Using the NI-223, allows interface with a Falcon Class push-to-talk (PTT) mobile phone system.
TETRA Radio Mode – Used to interface to a TETRA digital trunked system using the IP-223 and the Sepura SRM2000
mobile radio. The IP-223 interfaces the radio through the PEI allowing dispatch access to TETRA
radio assets.
Line Name Field
The Line Name field is used to enter a descriptive name for the line.
This field can contain up to 12 characters.
RX Mcast Address Field
The RX Mcast (Multicast) Address field identifies the broadcast address for all audio traffic received on a specific line. All
consoles must have the same Multicast Address. The entry in the first Multicast Address field applies to the port number
entered in the RX Port field.
NOTE: The option to use a different Multicast Address for the RX port is available. This provides flexibility and acts as
a filter.
The range for this field is 224.0.0.2 to 239.255.255.255.
