Notes on the Configuration of VOIP-1-2-4-8 Units

The initial configuration of the VOIP-1-2-4-8 units must be done locally using the Windows GUI.
However, all additional configurations can be done via the Web GUI once you know the IP address of the
VOIP unit being configured. The VOIP-1-2-4-8 unit can be reprogrammed remotely in almost every setup
where a computer can access the web interface GUI.

Once you have finished programming the VOIP units, you may set each of the units to request a login
and password each time the configuration software is launched. For more information on this topic,
please reference Setting a Password (pp. 38-39).


IMPORTANT NOTE: After each configuration change, make sure to hit OKAY at each screen. Once you have
completed configuring all options, make sure to also “Save Settings and Reboot”. If you do not click save and
reboot, all changes will be lost.
