1. How to set 2N® Helios IP intercom?

Settings of 2N® Helios IP intercom is very easy.

First of all register HeliosIP to the VoIP, IP PBX or SIP PROXY server. Regarding data you have from your provider, fill all necessary data in the Services - Phone - SIP 1.

 In the next step we will modify the settings of Video codecs (section "Services – Phone – Video"). You can set the highest possible resolution (VGA for videocalls) and also modify the bitrate and framerate parameters if needed. Consider the bandwidth consumption during the settings. Don't forget to choose correct codecs for video. (In the default setting are selected all). The same action repeate for the Audio setting.

As last step create a new user and assign him a phone number – we will use the number from Gigaset Maxwell 10 account, so 200. See the picture below for more information.
