Important Safety Information
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION
If used in an emergency communication application, the 8300 Controller should be
routinely tested. SNM supervision is recommended for assurance of proper operation.
DRY INDOOR LOCATION ONLY
The 8300 Controller is intended for dry indoor locations only. For outdoor locations Algo
offers weatherproof speakers and strobe lights.
CAT5 or CAT6 connection wiring to an IEEE 802.3af compliant network PoE switch
must not leave the building perimeter without adequate lightning protection.

8300 Controller FW 1.7.6
Overview
About the Algo 8300 Controller
The 8300 is designed for centralized Algo endpoint monitoring and supervision. Any Algo
SI endpoint device can be monitored on the network via the 8300 dashboard. Common
application environments include education, healthcare, manufacturing, plant/utility, retail,
and more.
The 8300 is capable of providing notifications such as audio output or SI Call, as well as
email. Recipients will be alerted when a monitored device is unreachable.
A multicast feature allows the 8300 to broadcast an audio notification tone to multiple
Slave endpoints. Multicasting allows for a scalable and cost-effective means of designing
large scale paging and alerting solutions, with minimal network traffic and as few as one
SI extension for the registered Master endpoint sending the multicast. Any number and
combination of Algo I speakers, paging adapters and strobe lights can be part of an RT
multicast.
The 8300 is configured by accessing a web interface using browsers such as Google
Chrome or Firefox.

Setup and Installation
Getting Started – Quick Install & Test
This guide provides important safety information which should be read thoroughly
before permanently installing the device.
1. Connect the 8300 Controller to an IEEE 802.3af compliant oE network switch. The
blue lights on the front will remain on until boot up is completed – about 30 seconds.
2. After the blue lights turn off, press the reset switch (RESET) on the front to hear the
I address over the analog output (e.g. headset can be connected to the green
output port). The I address may also be discovered by downloading the Algo
Locator Tool to find Algo devices on your network: www.algosolutions.com/locator
3. Access the 8300 web page by entering the I address into a browser (Chrome,
Firefox etc) and login using the default password: algo
4. Connect another Algo device that you want to monitor to the network. Wait until boot
up is completed.

5. Add the device to the list of monitored devices by going to Dashboard > Devices
and selecting the Unmanaged Devices tab. Find the connected device in the list and
add it to managed devices.
6. Return to the Managed Devices list and view the device status. If the status displays
(Warning) SNM Disabled, you must enable SNM support on the monitored device
by logging into the device's web interface and enable SNM under the Advanced
Settings > Admin tab.
7. Disconnect the monitored device. Device will show as disconnected in the list. See
full user guide for further details on setting up additional notifications, including email
alerts.

8300 Controller FW 1.7.6
Installation
The 8300 is wall mountable in a horizontal orientation using the supplied bracket.
Example installation on ½” drywall:
Use appropriate drywall anchors for #8 screws, and pre-
drill per anchor manufacturer’s instructions. Insert 4
anchors into the wall, and then attach bracket to wall
anchors using #8 screws. Snap the 8300 into the bracket.
Connect the 8300 to a oE network switch.
eb Interface
The 8300 Controller is configurable using the web interface.
After boot up the blue lights on the front will turn off and the controller will have obtained
an I address. If there is no DHC server the 8300 Controller will default to the static I
address 192.168.1.111.
ress the reset switch (RESET next to the Ethernet port) momentarily to hear the I
address over Aux Out port. The reset switch will not cause a reset unless pressed during
power up.
The I address may also be discovered by downloading the Algo locator tool to find Algo
devices on your network: www.algosolutions.com/locator
Enter the I address (e.g 192.168.1.111) into a browser such as Google Chrome, Firefox,
or Internet Explorer (other than IE9). The web interface should be visible and the default
password will be algo in lower case letters.
iring Connections
Network Connection
The 8300 provides a RJ45 jack for network connection. A cable run from the switch can
be terminated to a modular jack with connection by patch cord, or terminated with a RJ45
plug.
oE ( ower over Ethernet) must be 48V 350 mA IEEE 802.3af compliant whether
provided by the network switch or injector.
There are two lights on the Ethernet jack:
Green light: On when Ethernet is working, flickers off to indicate activity on the port.
Amber light: Off when successful 100Mbps link is established. Typically on only briefly at
power up.

8300 Controller FW 1.7.6
Under normal conditions, the Amber light will turn on immediately after the Ethernet cable
is first connected. This indicates that oE power has been successfully applied. Once the
device connects to the network, it will switch to the Green light instead, which will typically
flicker indicating traffic on the network.
Blue LED Indicators
All 4 blue lights will be on during power up and the boot process.
SIP
Steady light will appear when the SI extension is registered. The light will blink when the
device is engaged in an outbound SI alert.
MCAST
The Multicast light will appear when 8300 sends multicast messages to Slaves as a
Master.
ALARM
The ALARM light is ‘on’ when the Controller has detected that one or more devices is
currently offline.
OUTPUT
The OUT UT light is on when the analog output is enabled.
Reset Button
A recessed reset button (RESET) next to the Ethernet Jack can only be used to reset the
8300 Controller at time of power up. To reset, reboot or power cycle the 8300 Controller,
wait until the SI LED flashes and then press and hold the reset button until the SI LED
begins a double flash pattern. Release the reset button and allow the unit to complete its
boot process. Do not press the reset button until the SIP LED begins flashing.
A reset will set all configuration options to factory default including the password.
Once booting has completed, pressing the reset button will cause the Controller to
announce its I address over the Aux Out port.
Features
Visual Notifications
The Managed Devices on the Dashboard > Devices tab displays the current status of
each monitored device. By default the devices are sorted by of status.
Device status:
Error: Unreachable Device is offline
Error: Software Failure Device is reachable but there is a software error that effect
normal operation. A reboot may be necessary to return
normal operations.

arning: Trying… Controller is attempting to reach device.
arning: SNMP Disabled Device is reachable but SNM is not enabled
Online Device is reachable and functioning correctly
Additionally, when one or more offline devices are detected, an error message will be
shown at the top of the Dashboard > Devices page:
Audio Notification
The 8300 Controller can be configured to play audio notifications by setting “Action” to
“ lay Tone” under the Dashboard > Audio Notification tab. Custom files can be used as
the audio notifications by uploading an audio file to the “tones” directory under Advanced
Settings > ile Manager tab.
Additional Notifications
Multicast Notification
In addition to playing an audio notification locally, the 8300 can multicast the audio
notification to multiple Slave endpoints. Any number and combination of Algo I speakers,
paging adapters, and strobe lights can be a Slave endpoint.
Call Notification
The 8300 can be configured to dial an extension and play a pre-recorded message.
Email Notification
Email Notifications can be sent when a device goes offline, when a device goes back
online, and/or periodic heartbeat messages. When devices go offline/online momentarily,
alerts may be missed, Emails can provide a history of the status of devices over large
periods of time so that device malfunctions are always detected.
Multicast IP Addresses
Each 8300 Controller has its own I address, and shares a common multicast I and port
number (multicast zone) for multicast packets. The 8300 transmits to a configurable
multicast zone, and the slave units listen to all the multicast zones assigned to them.
The network switches and router see the packet and deliver it to all the members of the
group. The multicast I and port number must be the same on all the master and slave
units of one group. The user may define multiple zones by picking different multicast I
addresses and/or port numbers.
1. Multicast I addresses range: 224.0.0.0/4 (from 224.0.0.0 to
239.255.255.255)
2. ort numbers range: 1 to 65535
