1 Introduction1.1 About “ICPAGING”ICPAGING is a fully functional solution for building intercom and paging systems over IP-basednetworks. With ICPAGING, BARIX devices can be easily configured and become part of thepaging system in few minutes.Being designed with a master/client architecture, the ICPAGING application can be configured torun either as a master (called ICMASTER), or as client (called ICCLIENT). The communicationbetween the master and the client components of the paging system is implemented using theBarix IP protocol (BARP).The ICMASTER station can control the ICCLIENT's mode of operation, send broadcast pagingmessages to any or all of them, and activate their relays to drive different peripherals. Multiplemasters can coexist and be configured within a system.Also the in the package contained ICgraph software (Java based PC software) can be used asICMASTER system/station.The ICCLIENT stations are typically used as door intercom stations or paging stations withbackground music playback. They can also be configured to initiate an intercom connection withup to two master stations.1.2 FeaturesSystem:• master / slave architecture• BARP compatible: integrates seamlessly with other BARP applications like MP3_RTP_Streamer,ICGRAPH, BARP paging client• priority based audio messaging• easy WEB based configuration• multiple master configuration – “call all masters” and “call failover” scenariosICMASTER• full or halfduplex mode of operation• handsfree mode for sending paging messages and half-duplex communication• up to 112 available keys (with two 48 keys extensions)• configurable audio messages priority• intercom (client call master)• caller ID display• configurable ringtones per client6 Introduction
