Configuring Nyquist Entry Door Phone
The Nyquist Entry Door Phone (NQ-EDP01) is a hands-free, two-way, wall-mounted, VoIP speaker phone designed to work with the Nyquist Series IP network-based intercom and paging solution. It is 802.3af-compliant and designed to facilitate rapid and efficient deployment using existing network Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports.
This device can be used to place a VoIP/SIP call to an assigned Admin Phone or Admin Group with the press of a button. The device provides half-duplex communication, allowing one party to speak at a time, switching automatically whenever it detects that the Admin Phone party is speaking.
Note: Be aware that the Entry Door Phone does not receive pages or participate in check-in processes.
The Nyquist server can automatically discover and configure the Entry Door Phone, but you can also manage the device and manually configure some settings through the web-based user interface (web UI). It can also operate in Standalone mode, allowing it to be used in generic, 3rd-party SIP applications without a Nyquist server.
A two-second press of the appliance’s Reset button reboots the device. If you press the Reset button for 10 seconds, the appliance returns to the factory default configuration settings. Returning to the default configuration settings does not change the appliance’s firmware.
The following sections describe the process for manual configuration. For information about using Nyquist’s automatic configuration process, refer to the appropriate Nyquist System Administrator Guide.
Note: Do not use third-party Chrome browser extensions with the Nyquist user interface.
To access the appliance’s Web-based user interface (UI):
1Before accessing the web UI for the first time, the Bogen Certification Authority (CA) digital certificate must be installed on the client. This certificate can be downloaded from any Nyquist appliance and enables your browser to recognize the Nyquist web application as a trusted site.
For details on how to download and install the certificate to your client computers, see "Installing the Bogen Digital Certification Authority".
2Access the appliance’s web UI by doing one of the following:
a)On your web browser, enter the IP address for the appliance as the URL.
b)From the Nyquist server’s web UI navigation bar, select Stations, select Stations Status or Appliance Status, navigate to the device that you want to configure, and then select the Link icon.
3At the Nyquist appliance’s Login page, enter username and password, then press enter or click on the Login button.
The default username is admin; the default password is bogen.
Note: After a successful login, a warning will be displayed if the default password is still in use. We strongly encourage changing the default password as soon as possible.
When you have logged in successfully, you will be presented with the dashboard for the appliance.
