Aiphone AN-8000 quick start Multi Interface Audio I/O tab, see

Advanced: Background Music and Camera Call Up Give the quantity of MI’s is given in the Equipment Registration tab and then the Multi Interface tab may be used. Each AN-8000MI provides 2 paging amp connections which you can configure using the Function Settings tab. The Audio I/O may be used to bring in a music source, select BGM on that channel. Once the background music is chosen for one of those 2 outputs, each Exchange or IP Master Function Settings(1) tab can be used to set up to 8 different MI channels, which involves an equipment number (AN- 8000MI’s are not named) and the input (1 or 2). Select the equipment number for the MI that has your BGM input, then select which of the 2 inputs on the MI it comes in on. Then go to the Function Settings for each Station (Function Settings2 if configuring an IP Station) and check the box next to Receives BGM and tell it which BGM channel (1-8) it uses. To operate, a master can control its own channel by using the sequence Function + 1 + X (where X is 1-8 or 0 to turn it off).

Note: In the example MI configuration, we are setting up audio channel 1 for a BGM source and channel 2 for a PBX connection.

For Camera call up the Contact I/O tab contains all the outputs needed to tie in to the alarm inputs on the 3rd party DVR you are integrating with. Be sure to give it a Contact Output Access Number so it can be manually triggered by hitting Function + 30 + Contact Output Access Number. Once you have the contacts set up, switch to the Door station’s Station Tab and set the contact number for CCTV Call up in the Function Settings tab. You have up to 8 masters which the relay will fire.

Note: If the contact is being used for door release, you may specify the contact as such in the Door Remote field of a Station’s Function Settings tab. This will enable the relay to fire during communication using the sequence Transfer + Function + 0 for any door (the system will only fire the relay for the door you are currently talking to).
