  • 12 configure operation mode for relay 2
  • 24# IP video routing

NOTE: Please note that when using the door opener function, you can use only seven call buttons with your Behnke phone! The camera must be connected to the Behnke telephone as the eighth "button" (see connection diagram above). If you have questions about the configuration of the Behnke phone, please refer to the technical manual. The configuration of the relays is also described there!

3. Configuring the IP video software

  • Start the configuration of the IP video software and switch to the tab "IP door intercoms". There you should see a black square with the IP address of your Behnke camera in the field on the left.

    NOTE: If your camera is not listed here, please check whether you have set the exceptions for the IP video software in the Windows firewall. If that's the case, and the software still doesn't find the camera automatically then please add it manually. Manually adding a camera is described in the following configuration guide: Manually adding a camera

  • Select the camera with a left-click and check "Camera with analog phone" to the right. Then enter the "Username" and "Password" for accessing the camera.

  • Then click on the button ..., set the option "Analog Behnke door intercom with more than one button". A list appears with the call buttons from 1 to 9. Then tick the call buttons that should trigger the automatic video popup on this computer. For example, if you want the picture to pop up on this computer when button 1 is pressed, check "Call button 1" in the list accordingly. Then click the "OK" button.

  • Then click on the "Save configuration" button below. A corresponding entry for the camera will then appear in the box below. After a few seconds, the camera preview should be displayed.

Basic configuration is now complete and the configuration window may be closed. A window with the video should now open automatically when a call is triggered at the Behnke Station. The window is displayed for the duration of the call. After hanging up, the window will close again.
