The touchscreen can be used for:

• Answering incoming calls

• Calling other stations

• Viewing entrance cameras

• Monitoring stations

• Selecting stations from the directory

• Door release

• Paging

• Speed-dial functions

• Reviewing system information

The white finish makes the IX-MV7-W especially well suited for:

• Reception desks

• Medical offices

• Healthcare facilities

• Administrative offices

• Modern commercial interiors

• Residential management offices

Built-In Camera

The IX-MV7-W includes a built-in:

1/3" CMOS Camera

The local camera enables supported two-way video communication between compatible IX / IXG stations.

Camera Privacy Shutter

A physical privacy shutter is built into the top of the station.

The shutter can cover the camera when local video transmission is not desired.

This is particularly useful in:

• Reception areas

• Administrative offices

• Healthcare environments

• Private offices

• Property-management offices

Hands-Free Communication

The IX-MV7-W provides:

Full-Duplex Hands-Free Communication

Both parties can speak naturally at the same time through the station's integrated microphone and speaker.

No handset is required.

Push-to-Talk Mode

The station also supports:

Push-to-Talk Simplex Communication

This can improve communication in noisy environments where manually controlling transmit direction is preferable.

No Handset

The IX-MV7-W is the white hands-free-only version of the IX-MV7 family.

It does not include a privacy handset.

For applications requiring handset communication, consider an appropriate IX-MV7-H Series model.

8 Programmable Speed-Dial Buttons

The station provides:

8 Customizable Speed-Dial Buttons

These can be assigned to frequently used functions such as:

• Call a station

• Page a station or group

• Monitor a station

• Activate a contact closure

This allows security and reception personnel to access common functions quickly.

500-Station Address Book

The IX-MV7-W supports an address book containing up to:

500 Stations

Operators can locate devices through the station directory or directly enter the assigned station number.

This makes the IX-MV7-W suitable for both small systems and larger multi-building or campus installations.

Individual Station Monitoring

Compatible IX / IXG stations can be monitored directly from the IX-MV7-W.

Possible monitored locations include:

• Building entrances

• Parking areas

• Emergency stations

• Security gates

• Interior communication points

• Campus locations

Available audio and video depend on the connected station.

Scan Monitoring

The IX-MV7-W supports scan monitoring of up to:

500 Addressed Stations

This allows an operator to automatically cycle through configured stations for security or facility monitoring.

Line Supervision

The station supports:

Line Supervision

to help determine whether configured IX / IXG devices remain available on the network.

This can help identify:

• Disconnected devices

• Network failures

• Powered-down stations

• Communication interruptions

Scheduled Device Checks

Scheduled device checks allow the system to periodically verify the status of addressed stations.

This can be useful in security and emergency-communication systems where station availability is important.

Picture-in-Picture

The IX-MV7-W supports:

Picture-in-Picture – PIP

This allows two video sources to be viewed simultaneously:

• Aiphone intercom camera

• Associated compatible ONVIF Profile S IP camera

For example, security personnel could view a visitor close-up from the door station while simultaneously seeing a wider surveillance-camera view of the entrance.

ONVIF Profile S

The IX-MV7-W is:

ONVIF Profile S Compliant

This provides integration capabilities with compatible third-party network cameras and video-security systems.

Actual functionality depends on the third-party equipment and system configuration.

SIP Compliance

The IX-MV7-W is also:

SIP Compliant

This allows integration with compatible:

• SIP servers

• IP PBX systems

• VoIP platforms

• Third-party communication systems

Available functions depend on the connected SIP platform and configuration.

Door Release

The IX-MV7-W can release the entrance associated with the active door-station communication.

The station provides:

2 Programmable Normally Open Dry Contact Outputs

rated:

24V AC/DC, 1A

These contacts can also be programmed for compatible auxiliary-control functions.

Locking Hardware

Applications may include:

• Electric strikes

• Magnetic-lock relays

• Gate-control interfaces

• Access-control relays

Always verify the electrical load of the connected equipment.

Loads exceeding the IX-MV7-W relay rating should be controlled using an appropriately rated external relay.

Four Trigger Inputs

The IX-MV7-W provides:

4 Programmable Trigger Inputs

These inputs can be connected to compatible external dry-contact devices.

Possible applications include:

• External call button

• Alarm input

• Security-system input

• Auxiliary switch

• Building-system interface

Function is determined through IX / IXG programming.

Paging

The IX-MV7-W can provide paging to:

• Individual station groups

• Selected groups

• All applicable stations

This allows the station to function as both an intercom answering station and facility communication point.

Bell Schedule

The IX-MV7-W supports up to:

50 Scheduled Bell Events Per Day

Typical applications include:

• Schools

• Manufacturing plants

• Warehouses

• Corporate campuses

• Shift-based facilities

• Institutional buildings

microSD Recording

The IX-MV7-W can capture and store:

• Audio

• Video

from active conversations on a compatible:

microSD Card

The card is:

Not Included

Recording capacity depends on card size and system activity.

3.5mm Stereo Mini Jack

The station includes a:

3.5mm Stereo Mini Jack

for applicable headset or audio accessories supported by the station.

This can provide more focused audio for an operator while maintaining the compact handset-free design.

External Speaker Output

The IX-MV7-W provides:

8Ω, 0.5W Speaker Output

for a compatible external speaker.

This can increase local call or paging volume around the answering station.

600-Ohm Audio Input

The station also includes:

600Ω Audio Input

for compatible external audio integration.

Exact use depends on the complete IX / IXG system design.

PoE Power

The IX-MV7-W receives power through:

IEEE 802.3af Class 0 PoE

Published power draw:

4.32 Watts

This eliminates the need for a separate local power supply when the station is connected to a compatible PoE network switch or injector.

CAT-5e / CAT-6 Network Wiring

The station connects to the IP network using:

• CAT-5e

• CAT-6

Maximum standard Ethernet distance:

330 ft / 100 m

between the station and network node.

Longer distances require appropriate network infrastructure.

Network Interface

Network connection:

10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX Ethernet

Connector:

RJ45

Unlike traditional hardwired intercom stations, the IX-MV7-W operates directly as an IP network endpoint.
