Configuring the Audio Module
The video server’s administration pages provide all the tools required for successfully configuring
the AXIS 2191. From the server’s home page, click on the link to
Administration Tools
and then
follow this procedure:
1. In the Admin tools, click on the icon for COM2. Select the AXIS 2191 Audio Module as
the
Purpose
for this port. Click
Save
.
Note:
If the AXIS 2191 is not available for selection, the video server does not have the correct firm-
ware for running this device and must be upgraded. See
Updating the Firmware,
on page 44.
2. You should now see the icon for the
AXIS 2191 Audio Module under the icon for COM2.
Click this icon to open the
Audio Settings
page.
3. Select the
Audio Mode
. This can be:
• Full-Duplex (Talk and Listen Simultaneously)
• Half-Duplex (Talk and Listen)
• Simplex - Talk
• Simplex - Listen
This selection will depend on your
application. See page 35 for more
information.
4. Enter the maximum number of clients that
will be able to access the application at
any one time. Use this setting to limit
access if you only have limited bandwidth
available.
5. If you are using Half-Duplex mode, the
Send
option can be used to send audio
from the client currently transmitting to all
the other clients, and not just to the server
end. Set to
Yes
to enable the function.
6. When using Half-Duplex, the
Push-To-Talk
button will be visible. Select
the mode to use for this button. Selecting
Toggle
means that when the button is
pushed it will remain so until pushed
again.
Instant
means that the button will
remain active (pushed) until released.
7. Adjust the
Volume Out
control until a satisfactory speaker level is heard. The
Level Out LED
can be used to check that there is audio being received. Note that both the control and the LED
are on the audio module itself.
