System description
The Videofon videophone clients for Windows operating systems are software applications for convenient in-house communication through the IP network. The functionality includes all the important features of classical house communication. The user therefore gets a true video intercom, based on software. With the IP system components RTN300X/301X, RTN500X and RTD110X, a smart IP-based in-house communications system is easy to implement. Comprehensive configuration options permit seamless, adaptable integration in any desired application scenario.
Possible device types and operating system versions

Operating systems: MS Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 (32 & 64bit)
PC hardware (Min): Touch panel PCs, laptop/Desktop with x86 architecture, 1.6GHz (DC), 1GB RAM, 100Mbit, 1024 x 768px screen, microphone and speaker (headset or hands-free-compatible)
Note: Only for use in the local network
WARNING! Please be sure to check Windows tablets for suitability for door communication. Frequent problems: No network on standby, not hands-free-suitable, ringtone too quiet
The software licence purchased is provided for installation of equipment in a household. To test the software for suitability, particularly on a touch panel PC with hands-free use, we would be happy to provide you with a demo version. Please make use of it in advance. Our support team would be happy to assist you with any questions.
Basic connection and system scenario
The Videofon application is designed for operation with IP System components. These include RTN300X/301X IP door speakers, RTN500X IP camera and the RTD110X IP intercom server. You can find more detailed information about system construction and installation in our IP Easy Installation Guide. All the configuration steps described in these instructions are based on a correctly configured and working hardware installation.

Preparing the Videofon app for the first use


Videofon does not need to be installed. Simply copy the program folder onto your hard drive and start the application.

The message shown may appear before the program starts. Permit access to private networks.

The Videofon application is now started and can be configured using the settings menu.
Enter the license key and activate Videofon

Click the "To activation" button.

Under "License key" enter the code you received from us (with the dashes) and click "Activate". The Videofon client is now activated and the demo banner will no longer appear.
The Videofon client for Windows is also fully functional in its "inactivated" state. This is so that you can have the option of testing the software in advance on different hardware with no obligation. If necessary, the demo version can be downloaded from our website.
Call settings menu

The settings are opened using the "Menu" button on the Videofon user interface.

Alternatively, you can also right-click the Videofon icon on the Tasktray menu

Accept user account settings and register account

The user account information displayed on the RTD110X is entered in the Windows client under "User accounts / Videofon". Click the "Register" button to log the client into the system. Successful registration is indicated by the message "Registration OK".
Input/Accept camera information

Accept the information from the RTD110X "Entrance and camera" area into the corresponding input fields in the Windows client in the "Entrance and camera / Entry/camera #". If no special customisation has been done in the RTD110X configuration, then all that needs to be done is to set the entrance to "Active" and replace the URL text area "ipaddresse-server" with the actual main network IP address of the RTD110X.
The camera stream can then be displayed and the door speaker module called. You can find more information about this in the next section "User interface and functions".
User interface and button assignments

1. Accept calls
2. End call or reject incoming call
3. Actuate door opener relay
This button stores the DTMF sequence to control the door opening relay (intercom options). This only works if a call has been established
4. Actuate light relay
This button stores the DTMF sequence to control the light relay (intercom options). This only works if a call has been established.
5. Establish connection to door
The video stream assigned to the door to call must have previously been defined (camera button 9-12).
6. Mute ringtone
Mutes the call signal. All other functions continue to run normally.
7. Call settings menu
This button takes you to the Videofon settings.
8. Camera/door switching (i2BUS only)
On this button the DTMF sequence for camera/door switching in the i2BUS system is set up (intercom options). This button only works in the i2BUS interface mode and in an established call.
9. - 12. Other entrances and cameras
These buttons are assigned to entrances/door stations or IP cameras/server (Intercom options - Entrance/camera). Pressing the button shows the video stream. A call to the corresponding door can be made with the "Establish call to door" button (5). With an entrance configured as an i2BUS interface, the video image is displayed only after the call is established, since the i2-BUS cameras are disabled in the idle state and only activated after a door connection is active.
13. Ending Videofon
Button can be converted to "minimize" in the settings to protect against ending.
14. Minimize Videofon
Videofon is minimised. The application can be called again from the Tasktray menu.
15. Display of registration status
This display shows you the registration status on the RTD110X. Green = Videofon is registered. Yellow = registration procedure is in progress.
Red = videophone is not registered.

The Windows Videofon client in version 2.20 or better permits the selection of custom ringtones. Call up the menu "User accounts / Videofon / Customizing". Here, check the setting "Use user-defined ringtone" and use the file selector under that to select an audio file in uncompressed WAV format. This audio file will now be used to signal calls.

There is already a selection of suitable audio files included in the scope of delivery of the Videofon client in the "Ringtones" folder.
Set behaviour options for the application

Videofon starts minimised (in the Taskray)
Check this checkbox if the Videofon should not visibly be started on the Desktop when the computer is restarted. The application is then active in the Tasktray and will be displayed only when a call comes in.
Do not display the Videofon icon in the taskbar when minimised
If the application is minimised, it will not be displayed on the Windows task bar.
Do not end Videofon but rather minimise when closed (with x button).
Protects from accidental ending of the application (if the application is ended, no calls from the entrance will be signalled).
The Videofon application can then only be ended from the Tasktray menu.
Start Videofon automatically when system starts
Videofon will automatically be started when the computer restarts. No link in the Windows Autostart folder is needed.
Videofon is always in foreground (simple window overlap)
Windows of standard applications (Office, Internet Explorer, etc.) will be overlapped by the Videofon application. This means that the program is always in the foreground if a call comes in.
Aggressive window overlap for full-screen applications
"Workaround" mode for operation with full-screen applications that also have requested foreground priority. If this function is active, Videofon "triggers" in the foreground again every 500ms when the user interface is maximised. Since this setting can cause problems, use it only when absolutely necessary. Only activate this function once all settings have been configured in Videofon and disable it before changing settings. If the function is activated, the Videofon settings menu will not accept input.

Automatically display or maximise Videofon on incoming call
This function should be checked. Then Videofon will automatically be brought out of the minimised state when a call comes in, and displayed maximised.

These log files are in the application data folder (User/Username/AppData/Roaming/Videofon). It is quickest if you call up this folder content by entering %appdata%/videofon into the Windows Explorer.
CrashDumpFree....dmp is a dump for a program crash, and
logfile_xxxxxxxxx....xx.txt is the debug log file
(The crash dump file shown in the figure was generated with an earlier beta version of Videofon.)

The log files for audio problems are located in the same folder as the Videofon application and are:
pcminlog raw pcmlog/raw
skewdci.dmp
If there are problems, send us the logs generated.
We can run an error analysis on them.
Factory settings
If the Videofon application should be reset to factory settings, the Videofon application must be ended and then the file Config.xml deleted from the AppData folder (%appdata%/videofon). All settings in Videofon will then be reset when it starts again.
Side note - Audio settings in the RTN300X/301X IP door speaker

At the factory, the RTN300X/ 301X IP door speaker is set to audio values that have been tested as suitable in combination with different devices (smart phones, touch panels and IP telephones). Depending on local conditions and the device used, it may be necessary to make changes here.
You can get to the audio configuration of the RTN300X/301X via "Quick start / Communication" or "Expert configuration / Communication"
Audio settings for Android tablets in RTN300X IP door speaker
Side note - video settings for IP cameras/server


Video settings in RTN500X and AXIS IP camera/server
If many devices are used in parallel for IP video door communication, a call can lead to increased camera or network load, since all devices involved will request the video stream simultaneously.
It is therefore recommended that the video frame rate be reduced and JPG compression increased in order to compensate for bandwidth problems. (This is particularly true of HD resolutions greater than 640x480 pixels.)
On the RTN500X, the compression is defined on the value X. For the AXIS, it is around the value X.
You can get to the video settings of the RTN500X via "Quick start / Image settings" or "Expert / Image settings".
