4.1. Operation of the hybrid intercom
station as a SIP intercom station in the
network
1
Connection to the network
Preparation
▸
Mount the intercom station as described
earlier in this manual
▸
Connection of the SIP station with a
100 Mbit Ethernet LAN (Ethernet 100BaseT
according to IEEE 802.3) via the RJ-45 socket
(Ethernet port) or the screw terminals 1236
(observe EIA/TIA standard, observe PoE
supply switch), see page 66
▸
Power supply via Power over Ethernet
(PoE according to IEEE 802.3af, with connec-
tion of Behnke hearing loop PoE IEEE802.3at)
The Behnke SIP intercom station is factory
configured to an automatic IP configuration
via DHCP. It obtains its IP address automati
cally from the DHCP server, if present.
If no DHCP server is found in the network, the
device assigns itself an IP address in the Link
Local Network 169.254.0.0/16. Please mind
that if the device has assigned itself an IP
address, you also need to assign its com-
puter an IP address on the Link Local Network
169.254.0.0/16 so that you can access the
device. In addition, the device and the computer
must be on the same network segment for a
connection to be possible.

Start of the intercom station
Startup process
The startup process begins as soon as the
device is connected to the network (Ethernet
100BaseT according to IEEE 802.3) and the
power supply (PoE according to IEEE 802.3af,
alternatively IEEE 802.3at if a Behnke hearing
loop is available). Observe your network infra-
structure here.
Shortly afterwards, the status LED is switched
on and lights up permanently red.
After about 20 seconds, the software is started
and a high-pitched beep is emitted from the
loudspeaker of the intercom station. Intercom
stations with display show the Behnke logo.
The network is then activated.
As soon as the device has obtained an IP
address from the DHCP server, which is
announced for devices that are in the delivery
state. Note down the IP address in order to be
able to access the web frontend of the intercom
station in the further course of commission-
ing. For intercom stations that are no longer
in the delivery state, a low sound is emitted.
For devices with display, the IP address is
displayed briefly.
The IP address can also be accessed via the
configuration button of the SIP intercom sta-
tion. Please note the information starting from
point 3. Configuration of the intercom station.
When the startup process is finished, the status
LED changes. The LED flashes red, see also the
following states of the status LED.
