Digital Acoustics and CyberGate
Digital Acoustics IP7
This guide is created and tested with the Digital Acoustics IP7 (from now on called IP7).
As the IP7 can be used in TalkMaster FOCUS mode or with a different firmware in S3 mode. This manual describes both options.
After setting-up the IP7, please install the CyberGate app for Microsoft Teams.
Use the CyberGate app for Microsoft Teams to:
- Open the door of the intercom by simply clicking on an Open-door button
- See the status of your intercom and calling the intercom from Teams by clicking on just one button
- Set your Availability status in a configured CyberGate Multi-ring group with one click
Installation of the CyberGate app for Microsoft Teams is highly recommended.
