Question How can I troubleshoot IP Console and Gateway Audio Transport Across a Network?   Answer On initial set up of a console system, often the most frequent problem is the failure of Consoles and IP-223s to communicate across the network.  Common causes of this are: Typos in addressing, such as multicast addresses and port numbers not matching on end to end devices. Firewall turned "ON" in console computers Multicast being blocked across the network due to router settings, etc Use of the Telex “VU Meter” program (download at http://www.telex.com/us/dispatch/file?i=97544&lg=eng) is an excellent and quick way to determine if data is present on the correct port numbers. Open VU Meter with the appropriate multicast address and port number entered in the blanks. Turn the program on. Send a test call on the TX or RX port numbers and see if VU Meter indicates digital audio activity. You may open multiple instances of VU Meter to simultaneously monitor TX and RX port numbers.  Verification that audio data is being sent out on the correct address, but not arriving at the far end of the network may indicate a problem with network configurations, that is, blocking of multicast traffic. Please note that some newer switches are intelligent enough to contain routing functions, which can be unintentionally enabled in some situations.           © Copyright Bosch Security Systems All rights reserved.

Question How do I configure the IP-223 to operate in Console mode?   Answer Programming the IP-223 to operate in Console mode: For either 2 or 4 wire set J3, J9, J11, J16 and J21 (Line 1) or J19, J20, J25, J28 and J29 (Line 2) to "B" position. For 2-Wire; set J33 and J34 (Line 1) or J5 and J6 (Line 2) to "A" position, set J14 (Line 1) or J24 (Line 2) to "B" position. For 4-Wire set J33 and J34 (Line 1) or J5 and J6 (Line 2) to "B" position, set J14 (Line 1) or J24 (Line 2) to "A" position. Close unit   Now connect your 2 or 4-Wire control line to the correct IP-223 DB-25 I/O port. For 2-Wire connect the (TX/RX) wires to Pins 13 and 25 For 4-Wire connect the TX (Out to console) wires to Pins 13 and 25, connect the RX (In from console) wires to Pins 12 and 24. Once your jumpers and wire connections are set you will need to place the IP-223 line into Console mode. To do this, follow the steps below: Log into the web page of the IP-223. Click on the Multicast address setup picture at the top of the page. Use the Line Type drop down for line 1 or line 2 and set it to Console mode. Now Click on the Submit button at the bottom of the page. Click on the Per-Line setup picture at the top of the page. Go to individual Lines being configured for Console mode, scroll down to "Options" section. Check "Parallel Tone Console" checkbox. Now Click on the Submit button at the bottom of the page. Now click on the Save To EEPROM and click on Save Parameters. Now that line of the IP-223 is set to Console mode will decode PTT tones. The next steps you need to take is to set levels. To set levels do the following: Using a transmission test set or similar device, measure the audio on the front panel RX test point of the IP-223 to ground. Key up the attached tone console, with no voice (only 2175 tone present) Using a small screw driver, adjust the RX pot on the front of the IP-223 for the line under test.  Set the Low Level guard tone to the level you desire, typical is -20dbm into a loaded circuit (looking for 0 gain) Key up the tone console, measure the voice audio on the RX pins of the IP-223, typical is 0dbm peaks into a loaded circuit. You should see "CTX F1" displayed on the front of the IP-223 when you PTT from the tone console, TX packets are now being sent to the network.           © Copyright Bosch Security Systems All rights reserved.

Question Multicast doesn't seem to be working on my Telex Dispatch system - What are good next steps to troubleshoot for possible network issues?   Answer The problem can come from many reasons, the two most common are the following: 1. The TTL value entered isn't high enough for the number of router hops and Multicast packets are being pruned by the network before reaching the end point unit.  Try increasing the TTL value. 2. By default WAN or Layer 3 networks will not pass multicast traffic, a good next step to test overall port number addressing.  Configure a number of devices for "point to point" Unicast instead of "point to multi-point" Multicast: Enter the IP address of the far end IP unit into the Multicast address field of the local IP unit.  Do this for both ends. If console and radio traffic now work using Unicast the network is not configured correctly for Multicast traffic and you need to work with the IT manager for resolution.          . © Copyright Bosch Security Systems All rights reserved.

Question Can I telnet into an IP-223? Can I configure the IP-223 in telnet? Why would I want to use telnet?   Answer Can I telnet into an IP-223? Yes, The IP-223 can be telnetted into. Can I configure the IP-223 in telnet? No, The IP-223 cannot be configured from the telnet session.  Why would I want to use telnet? Telnet in the IP-223 is primarily for engineering use, however this can also be a useful trouble shooting tool while in the field.   An example how this could be used is as follows; IP-223 is connected to a radio and you're not getting any receive audio back to your console. Use telnet to see if you have network connectivity and you can also see if the IP-223 is seeing any RX audio coming from the radio.  The user name for this mode is "admin" and the password is "telnet".  This is the default telnet mode and you will be able to view any RX or TX operations the IP-223 is currently processing. Telnet sessions in the IP-223 can also show serial data coming from specific radios in hexadecimal.  To view this mode for radios attached to serial 1 log into the IP-223 with username "serial1"  and password "on".  To view serial port 2 information the username is "serial2" and password "on". Telnet sessions in the IP-223 can also show incoming iDEN radio ANI and other features on attached Falcon Series iDEN phones. The user name for this mode is "lego" and the password is "mania" If you need more help with this contact Telex Technical Support at 1-800-898-6723.           © Copyright Bosch Security Systems All rights reserved.
