Purpose
SIP Panel -panel is designed to work with SIP-devices (see Configuring SIP-terminal)for making calls to numbers from the address book and/or to numbers within the distributed system configuration of the system.
Features
SIP Panel provides the following functions:
- Placing the SIP calls to numbers from the address book or dialed numbers.
- Receiving the calls from the Making single and group calls between operators and/or SIP-devices.
- View Viewing the log of calls received or made using the SIP-panel.
- View Viewing and/or listen listening to archived calls received or made using the SIP-panel.
Interface description
By default, all elements are displayed in the SIP Panel interface. If necessary, some interface elements can be disabled (see Configuring Advanced settings of the SIP-panel interface object). Below is an example when all interface elements are displayed.
The SIP Panel interface consists of two tabs. The Call tab allows receiving and making calls. The Archive tab lists the incoming and outcoming calls and allows the audio and/or playback of the archived calls with the corresponding controls.
The number of the current SIP-operator is indicated in the upper right corner of the SIP Panel.
The Call tab
The interface of the Call tab of the SIP Panel is shown in the figure:
Address book
The address book is in the upper part of the Archive tab, it contains the numbers added for the current SIP-operator during the SIP-terminal configuration. To call a number from the address book, double-left-click on it. The dialing panel is displayed in the middle of the window.
The address book may be empty if users and/or permissions are not configured in Intellect or if current user does not correspond to any SIP-operator while the default SIP-operator is not selected.
Making a call
To make a call from the panel, select a number in the address book or dial the number manually, and then click on the 
button to start a video+audio call, or the 
button for an audio call. In both cases, both video and audio are transmitted from the SIP-device, but in the second case, the video stream from the operator’s camera is not sent to the device.
| Info | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
If camera, microphone and/or dynamic were selected for operator while configuring the system and if the SIP devise supports the corresponding function, then video and audio are transmitted to the SIP device from the operator's microphone and camera – see also Selecting speaker, microphone and camera for SIP-operator. |
During the call, the SIP Panel window will be displayed on top of all windows and will look like this:
The information field at the top of the window displays the name of the SIP terminal, the number and duration of the call.
The buttons at the bottom of the panel provide the call control:
— Enable/disable the operator's camera.
— Enable/disable the operator’s microphone.
— Enable/disable the operator’s speaker.
— Hold the call. A window will open with a list of all incoming calls that can be accepted/resumed using the buttons (with the video from the operator) and (without the video from the operator):
| Info | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
The video and sound from the SIP device continue to be received in Intellect in the Hold mode while the video and sound from the SIP operator's camera and microphone are not transmitted to the SIP device. |
Calls in the list are sorted by the SIP device priority specified during the system setup (see Configuring SIP-devices of the Intellect's SIP server). If several devices have the same priority, the calls from them are sorted by arrival time. By default, new calls are added to the top of the list, however, the sorting order can be changed so that new calls are added to the end (see Configuring the SIP-panel interface object).
A call list window is displayed on top of all windows when making a call and holding a call.
Display/hide the tone dialing panel. This panel allows the use of commands added while configuring the SIP device (see Configuring SIP-devices of the Intellect's SIP server).
— End the call.

Depending on the operator's Default settings, you may need to log in in the SIP-operator authorization window when you first log into the SIP-panel.
| Info | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
The Call and Archive tabs will not be available until the SIP-operator is authorized. |
SIP-operator authorization window
The SIP-operator authorization window contains a list of available SIP-operators (see Operator settings of the SIP-panel interface object). For authorization, you need to double-click the SIP-operator under which you will be logged in. The number of the current SIP-operator will be displayed in the upper right corner of the SIP-panel.
If a SIP-operator is already authorized in any SIP-panel, then this operator will be highlighted in red in other SIP-panels. You cannot log in under an already authorized SIP-operator.
After rebooting the Server/Remote Client, the previously authorized SIP-operator will be logged in automatically. If you log off the current user in Intellect and log in again as the same user, you will need to be authorized again.

The authorization window may open also in the following cases:

If, while working with the SIP-panel, you need to log out of the current SIP-operator without unloading the Server/Remote Client, then click on the operator number in the upper right corner.
The Call tab
The interface of the Call tab of the SIP Panel is shown in the figure:
The top of the Call tab displays the subscriber numbers from the address books added to the current SIP-operator during the SIP-terminal configuration stage. If the same subscriber number is added to several address books, then only one will be displayed on the SIP-panel.
| Info | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
If the SIP-terminal was not specified at the SIP-panel configuration stage (see Basic settings of the SIP-panel interface object), then the subscriber numbers from the address books will not be displayed. |
A dial pad is available in the middle of the window. For more information on dialing and making a call, see Making calls using SIP Panel.
The Archive tab
The interface of the Archive tab of the SIP Panel is shown in the figure:
To ensure the correct playback of archived calls, it is necessary to configure the audio and video archiving Make sure to configure audio and video archiving to play archived calls (see Configuring video archiving and Configuring audio signals recording).

SIP Panel control from the Map
If the Display only when calling option was enabled during the system setup, the SIP Panel is not displayed if there are no incoming calls (see Configuring the SIP Panel interface object). In this case, you can initiate a call using a macro command, or from the Map using the Call (forward/take) command in the function menu of the SIP-device and/or SIP-operator — as a result, the SIP Panel window will be displayed (see also Working with the map). Also, you can put the current call on hold or resume the call using the appropriate commands in the object menu on Map.

If there is no call, the icon of the camera assigned with the SIP device displays the Detach state, because no video from the camera is received. See Graphic objects on the Map for more information about objects icons on the Map. |
