8128 SIP Strobe Light (G2)
The network switches and router see the packet and deliver it to all the members
of the group. The multicast IP and port number must be the same on all the master
and slave units of one group. The user may define multiple zones by picking
different multicast IP addresses and/or port numbers.
1. Multicast IP addresses range: 224.0.0.0/4 (from 224.0.0.0 to
239.255.255.255)
2. Port numbers range: 1 to 65535
3. By default, the 8128 SIP Strobe Light is set to use the multicast IP
address 224.0.2.60 and the port numbers 50000-50008
Make sure that the multicast IP address and port number do not conflict with other
services and devices on the same network.
Multicast Page Zones
The 8128 SIP Strobe Light supports nine “basic” multicast zones. These zones are
defined by the multicast IP addresses.
Somewhat arbitrarily, these zones are defined below but may be used in other
ways. The important consideration is that there is a priority hierarchy – streaming
activity on a zone higher on the list, will be treated as a higher priority than a zone
lower on the list – with music being the lowest priority.
1. Priority
2. All Call
3. Zone 1
4. Zone 2
5. Zone 3
6. Zone 4
7. Zone 5
8. Zone 6
9. Music
“Expanded” zones can also be enabled, in the Basic Settings > Multicast tab,
allowing up to 50 zones in total. These have the same behaviors as the basic
zones, but are hidden by default to simplify the interface.
