AXIS 2400+/2401+ Admin Manual The AXIS 2191 Audio Module

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 41.

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 32 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.
