  • Main station display: 192.0.0.64
  • Extension display: 192.0.0.65
  • Video door-phone: 192.0.0.66

This is the configuration of our video door-phone. We are checking our IP address (192.0.0.66) we will have to check on the main indoor station that they match.

Basic settings, video door-phone IP network settings in the image, the MAC address, and MTU have been hidden.

Check that the settings are the same on the intercom tab.

Video door-phone intercom settings

These are the settings for our main indoor station; check that the settings on the red box are the same.

Check that (Main) Door Station IP Address matches your door-phone IP address (in this example, 192.0.0.66). Also that your Main Door Station Type matches the option shown in the image.

Group network settings for the main indoor station

Check the settings of your ACM63WT extension, that Device Type matches Indoor extension and that Main Indoor Station IP matches your main ACM63WT IP address (192.0.0.64).

M2M – Reactivating devices from the management platform (REACTIVAM2M)

Steps to add a REACTIVAM2M to an M2M device in the management platform (https://m2mservices.com/Admin)

These steps work for all M2M family devices that require reactivation to add their corresponding annual fee.

If the communicator is already suspended and inactive for longer than its PREPAY END DATE, the platform will display the “ACTIVATE DEVICE” option.

First, we need to search for the communicator, double-click on it, and go to the home page.

To activate it, we need to click on “ACTIVATE DEVICE.”

It will ask us if we want to add a REACTIVAM2M, to which we say yes.

We will then see another option, where we click on “voucher.”

A new window will open where we can enter the REACTIVAM2M voucher code found on the invoice.

In the invoice there will be 15 digits that would be our “Voucher Number” enter those digits

After entering, click save

Verify that the option of (ACTIVATE DEVICE) disappears.

NOTE
It is important to enter the annual voucher as soon as possible, as the reactivation code only gives you until the end of the current month to enter the annual payment. If the annual payment is not entered, the communicator will be suspended. In this case, another reactivation code must be purchased to reactivate the communicator.

How to reset a password for epcom devices?

In the following manual, we explain the process to follow so you can reset the password of epcom devices using XML.

To reset the password of an epcom brand IP camera with firmware version 5.3.0 or higher, of a DVR/NVR with firmware version 3.1.7 or higher, or of a video intercom or alarm, it is necessary to carry out the following procedure:

1.- Download and install the software SADP version 3.0.4.9 (download here).

2.- Select the device on which you want to reset the password, press the Forgot Password button (located in the lower right corner), press the “Export” button, and select the folder you want to save the exported file (XML).

3.- Email the previously generated XML file to the following email addresses: [email protected], followed by the following information:

  • Complete serial number in SADP. (Example: DS-72xxABCDXY/SN123456789ABCD123456789ABCD)
  • Full name of the applicant.
  • Customer number and billing name in SYSCOM.
  • Name of the company.
  • Phone number.

You will receive an XML file in response in order to import it. (The response may take approximately 15-20 minutes)

In case you need to reset several devices, please send an email per file with all the information.

It is necessary to send the files without compression, send the file as the software outputs it.

4.- Load the XML file in SADP, set a password of 8 characters (at least one letter and one number), confirm it, and finally press the “Confirm” button so that the password is reset.

Important notes:

  1. The password reset procedure is only valid on the same day.
  2. The device should not be restarted during the entire procedure.
  3. SADP versions 3.0.0.1 or higher support the new procedure, previous ones do not.

  5. In case you need the file urgently, please contact the Engineering Department.
  6. In case you need to reset several devices, please send an email per file.
  7. If the file does not work for you, please restart the device to be reset, close the software, and run it as an administrator to generate a new file and repeat the sending process (as a recommendation, connect the device directly to your computer, the computer should have a fixed IP)
  8. It is also possible to generate the file through the iVMS-4200 software.

EPCOM PROAUDIO – Connecting Speakers to Amplifier SF-B120 / SF-B240

The high-impedance audio systems help us connect multiple speakers to the same amplifier output and take these speakers to bigger distances.

The EPCOM PROAUDIO amplifiers give us a 120W output on the SF-B120 model and 240W for the SF-B240 model.

The connection of a Public Address (PA) system with 1 output is done by connecting our speakers in a “daisy chain” making the proper power connection in each speaker (TAPS); having only one line of speakers in our zone.

We can connect a microphone to the PA system and an external audio device to play audio on your system.

The connection diagram would be as shown below:

With this connection, we can operate a PA/ambient music system of 1 zone or output with several speakers playing.

NOTE: It is recommended to only have 80% of the power delivered by the amplifier to power the speakers and leave 20% free to operate safely and without damaging the products.

If you have any questions, please contact the engineering department.
