Configuring the Analog Station Bridge

The Nyquist Analog Station Bridge (ASB) allows the Nyquist solution to use the existing analog call switch and speaker infrastructure when upgrading from Multicom 2000, Quantum Multicom IP, and third-party intercom systems. When used exclusively as a networked com­ponent of the Nyquist paging and intercom solution, the Nyquist ASB permits a 'hybrid' Internet Protocol (IP)/analog system configuration through use or connection of analog 25V speakers and associated analog call switches (for example, CA15C type). This ASB has 24 sta­tion connections that attach to wired speakers and their associated call switches. While each connection has its own Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) addressable Station ID, the ASB itself uses a single net­work IP address.

You can let the Nyquist server automatically discover and configure the ASB, or you can manually configure it through the ASB’s web-based user interface (web UI).

A short 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 E7000 Series System Administrator Manual.

Note: Do not use third-party Chrome browser extensions with the Nyquist user interface.

To access the appliance’s UI:

Step 1Access the appliance’s web UI by doing one of the fol­lowing:

aOn your web browser, enter the IP address for the appliance as the URL.

bFrom the Nyquist web UI navigation bar, select Sta­tions, select Stations Status, navigate to the device that you want to configure, and then select the Link icon.

Step 2At the Nyquist Appliance - Login page, enter username and password, and then select Login.

The dashboard for the selected appliance appears.
