GDS371x APPLICATION SCENARIOS

The GDS371x Door System can be used in different scenarios.

Peering Mode without SIP Server

For environment like remote warehouse/storage, grocery store, small (take-out) restaurants, just using static IP with PoE switch to form a LAN, using Grandstream’s video phone GXV3x50 or GXV3x70, the GDS371x will meet your very basic intercom, open door and surveillance requirement.

This is the solution to upgrade the traditional analog Intercom and CCTV security system. All you need is a Power source, Switch or PoE Switch and Grandstream GXV33xx or GXV34xx video phones.

The equipment list can be found below:

  • GDS371x
  • GXV33xx or GXV34xx
  • PoE Switch with related Cat5e/Cat6 wiring

Peering using SIP Server (UCM6XXX)

For large deployment, multiple GDS371x might be required, peered connection will not work in such case due to multiple connections. Such scenarios require an IPPBX or a SIP Proxy to accomplish the tasks.

If remote access is required, a router with internet access should be added to below-needed equipment list:

  • Several GDS371x
  • UCM6XXX or another SIP Server
  • GXV33xx or GXV34xx Video Phones
  • PoE Switch with related Cat5e/Cat6 wiring
  • Electronic Lock

If remote access to the GDS371x is required for viewing live video stream, Internet access is required and more equipment such as:

  • Router.
  • Internet Access (Optical fiber, 3G, 4G, Cable or DSL).
  • iPhone or Android phone with 3rd party applications (IP Cam Viewer for instance).
Peering GDS371x with UCM6XXX

Using a Network Video Recorder (NVR)

For implementation with more than two GDS371Xs, if local video recording is required to store the record, then an NVR will be added to save all the video streams when people enter the door.

Note

The RTSP Password defined on Access settings can be used to access Open Network Video Interface Forum devices.

Equipment List:

  • Several GDS371x
  • NVR supporting Onvif Profile S.
  • PoE switches with Cat5e/Cat6 wiring.

Siren alarming when door opened abnormally

When this feature enabled (special wiring required, see below wiring diagram), abnormal open door will be detected by DI port (Alarm_In2 or IN2 in below diagram showed) if wired correctly (connecting the COMx port to DIx port) therefore trigger siren alarm. Once abnormal open door alarm triggered, the siren will sound non-stop, until manually override by related person.

There are several ways to stop and disable the alarm:

1) Power cycle the GDS37xx

2) Pick up the Alarm Phone Call (if configured)

3) Open Door using PIN (either public PIN or private PIN , Option valid only for the GDS3710 Model)

Once alarm triggered, the GDS371x will take snapshots when the abnormal open door happened, email and upload the snapshots to FTP or Central Server (when configured); call the configured alarm SIP phone, send the alarm output (if connected). User will only be able to disable the siren using the 3 methods mentioned above.

Detailed action information please refer to GDS37xx User Manual, “Alarm Action Settings” configuration.

Below are some diagrams showing the correct wiring to enable this new security enhancement feature:

GSC3570 Secure Open Door via GDS37XX/GSC3570 Peering

This secure open door new feature is a major enhancement to GDS37xx, but need to include GSC3570 to make it a whole solution. The GDS37xx/GSC3570 will be peering together in LAN/WAN via IP/SIP, the door lock/strike will be wired to GSC3570 Alarm_Out port and controlled by GSC3570. This way the strike control is inside the building with enhanced security. Below is a setup example:

GSC3570 secure open door via GDS3710
Notes

Minimum firmware required for this to work:

  • Outdoor Device: GDS371x (FW1.0.11.23) and GDS370x(FW1.0.3.11)
  • Indoor Device: GSC3570(FW1.0.5.2)

The GDS37xx can be powered via PoE, the GSC3570 can connect to same network via PoE or WiFi. For open door combination with GSC3570 and GDS37xx, if GSC3570 needs to control multiple GDS37xx, it has to use SIP and the related GDS37xx will control the strike/lock. The different GDS37xx doorbell call will have“ One Button Open Door” displayed when in “Preview” (early media support) or when call established.

The GSC3570 user will press the virtual button on touch screen to remotely open the door controlled by the related GDS37xx.There is no door limitation for such usage but only ONE DOOR can be opened at one time. It is just a SIP call open door application, but strike/lock control circuit is located outdoor.

For “Secure Open Door”, the GSC3570 is peering with GDS37xx. The GSC3570 controlling the relay/strike/lock from inside the building (Unlike GDS37xx installed outside), but only ONE door can be controlled because GSC3570 only has one Relay Control circuit build in.

This peering can be via LAN/WAN but LAN is recommended and actually most of the application scene are in LAN environment because most likely the GSC3570 and GDS37xx are in the same building. Although SIP/UCM over Internet/WAN also works, it is recommended to use static IP if the GSC3570 (inside) and GDS37xx(outside) are at same location in the same LAN.

This setup is much simple and reliable in case there is network outage like Internet/UCM is down.

For the GSC3570 and GDS37xx peering, it can be used via SIP only (Cloud or UCM); IP only (No SIP proxy or UCM but static IP address) and Mixed (SIP and fallback to IP if Proxy failed).

GDS3710 Web Configuration

This setup can be found under device web UI→Door System Settings →Basic Settings:

GSC3570 secure open door via GDS3710-GDS3710 configuration

GSC3570 Web Configuration

The GSC3570 side also need to be configured according, like below:

GSC3570 secure open door via GDS3710-GSC3570 Door System System configuration

Then we will be configuring the Digital Input on the GSC3570 as the figure below:

GSC3570 secure open door via GDS3710-GSC3570 Digital Input configuration
Notes

  • If the solution/integration is using static IP address without SIP Proxy, all the devices involved (GDS/GSC/IP Phone) should set “NAT Traversal” to “No” and should NOT “Use Random Port”, otherwise will have problem of ghost call (SIP signaling working but NO media).
  • The IP phone or GSC3570 can use any empty SIP account, meaning it can be mixed if Account 1 registered to UCM/Proxy and Account2 (blank) to use IP (but the account has to be configured as “Active”).

One-Way Interlocking Mode

Note

This configuration is exclusive to the GDS3710 Model.

This feature will allow GDS3710 to control two doors in one direction, with additional 3rd party window/door sensor installed accordingly (not provided by Grandstream). When configured and wired correctly, the two doors will operate under a controlling logic as below:

1) Only legal PIN or RFID card can open door when BOTH doors are detected closed. ( Only for GDS3710 Model )

2) When 1st door opened by valid user, the 2nd door is and will remain closed; the 2nd door will automatically open once detected the 1st door closed and programmed timer reached.

3) When 2nd door opening, the 1st door will NOT open even a valid PIN/RFID used. ( Only for GDS3710 Model )

4) If entering 1st door and after 1st door closed and 2nd door opened, the person failed to enter 2nd door promptly (after 2nd door opening time out) will be locked in between two doors until next transaction happens or ask help (e.g.: call posted number or press button if there is one) from security staff to open door remotely (via SIP call into GDS3710 or GDSManager, for example).

This open door logic will make sure two doors are open in “One-Way” direction, at any given time only one door can be opened, and only one legal open door request is allowed to execute.

The hallway or scene between two doors could be monitored by installing Grandstream IP cameras.

This feature can be used in application scene like: College Dorm, Bank Branches, Government Offices, Medical Clinics, Private Clubs, etc., where there are two doors in place, high security and flow control is required (only one entry per time) but security guard may not be on site always.

Below is the illustrated drawing of the application scene as well as the wiring sample:

One-Way Interlocking Mode Diagram Example
Note

If required to use the same two doors for “Exit” direction, another GDS3710 is required and it can be configured in Door 2 to control “Exit” direction. The wiring/connection will be mirrored.

Web Configuration

This option can be found under device web UI→Door System Settings. Below example configuration screenshots are for reference only, customers need to test and get own parameters in field:

One-Way Interlocking Mode_GDS3710_Configuration_1
Notes

  • Door 2 Delay before Unlock(s): Will be the total transit time from Door 1 to Door 2 right after the Door 1 is closed (this time will be “Door 1 unlock holding time”).
  • In above example, the Door1 unlock holding time is 2 seconds, the transit time of hallway is 6 seconds, therefore the Door 2 Delay before Unlock is set to 8 seconds.
  • The transit time and unlock holding time will be decided and adjusted based on the actual application scene by the installer or system integrator.
  • COM1 (ALMOUT1) only has two sockets for wiring, and NO ONLY. If the connected strike/lock is a NO strike, this means ALMOUT1 Status should be set to “Normal Open” then door will be closed when power is lost.

Digital Input to Check Door Status (Door 1 & Door 2)

One-Way Interlocking Mode_GDS3710_Configuration_2

Proceed to Alarm Settings →Alarm Events Config →Digit Input, configured as follow:

  • Digit Input 1: Door Status Check. The DI will validate the current status of the Door, whether it is close or open, based on the sensor signal sending to the “Digit input 1.
  • Digit Input 1 Status: If set to Normal Open: Configured door status check will be triggered when Digital Input Status switch from Close to Open, If set to Normal Close: Configured door status check will be triggered when Digital Input Status switch from Open to Close. By default, Input Digit 1 Status is “Disabled”.
  • Digit Input 2: Door Status Check. The DI will validate the current status of the Door, whether it is close or open, based on the sensor signal sending to the “Digit input 2”.
  • Digit Input 2 Status: If set to Normal Open: Configured door status check will be triggered when Digital Input Status switch from Close to Open, if set to Normal Close: Configured door status check will be triggered when Digital Input Status switch from Open to Close. By default, Input Digit 2 Status is “Disabled.
Note

  • “Alarm Schedule” and “Alarm Action Profile” must be configured and selected otherwise the Digit Input channel will not be activated.
  • There are two doors wired with window/door sensor separately, please make sure the door sensor is wired to correct Digit Input channel and refer to sample wiring diagram for reference [One-Way Interlocking Mode Diagram Example].

Open Door via GDS37xx with or without a SIP Call

This feature needs related matching GDS37XX firmware to work. The minimum firmware version needed:

  • GDS3710: 1.0.7.19 or higher.
  • GDS3705: 1.0.1.13 or higher.

From GDS37XX side, the configuration is the same. Only difference is the number of doors be controlled: If using Local Relay controlled by GDS37XX, TWO DOORS can be controlled.

If using GSC3570 Relay, ONLY ONE DOOR can be controlled. The PIN and other settings are the same as SIP remote open door or GSC3570 secure open door for the GDS3710.

The difference will come out at the touch screen UI operation of GSC3570.

GDS37XX Configuration Example
GSC3570 Configuration Example

Door opening with SIP Call:

When GSC3570 established call with GDS37XX, the screen will display virtual open door button(s), and user will press the button to open door:

Open Door with SIP Call

GSC3570 Open Door NO SIP Call:

At the GSC3570 idle screen, press “Monitor →Door system”, the related GDS37XX will be displayed. In the blue bar, left is a “Phone”icon and right is the “Open door”icon. The“Phone”icon will establish SIP call as previous firmware behaved.

Press “Open door” icon, the GSC3570 will open door directly and NO SIP CALL will be established. Depending on how many doors controlled, if one door configured, the door will open directly; if two doors configured, another screen will pop up to allow user to choose which door to open, as shown below:

When the door is successfully opened the following message will appear:

Door Relay Options

This feature allows customers to integrate GDS37XX with 3rd party web relay to control door open over network, via script or other applications, to meet real application scene and enhance security. User need to input web relay IP address or domain name, as well as authentication information, to make this to work.

There are four choices in the pull-down selection: 

  • Local Relay: Local Relay is the GDS371x controlling the relay. The strike is wired into the COM2 or COM1 port of the GDS371x depending 1 door or 2 door need to be controlled.

  • Webrelay: When Webrelay is selected, customers need to continue configure the webrelay IP address or domain name, together with credentials like Username and Password. When legal open door event happened, the configured web relay will get the communication from GDS371x, and will operate the strike to open door for the authenticated open door request.

  • GSC3570 Relay: When the Door relay is set to  GSC3570, it gives the option to connect it to the GSC3570 device by entering the Phone number and door password.

  • Send Wiegand Code on Remote Open Door Action: When this mode is selected, The device will send PIN1/PIN2 code via the Wiegand interface when the remote HTTP API open door1/door2 has been executed.


Note: In web relay mode, the strike is wired to the web relay controller device.

Webrelay URL ON

When Door relay Option set to Webrelay, then enter the correct URL used by the third party controller so that the GDS3710 send the command to activate the relay.

This adds an extra layer of security so when legal open door event happened, the configured web relay will get the communication from GDS3710, and will operate the strike to open door for the authenticated open door request or use that command to operate other industry application.

Notes:

  • Now there are two Webrelay URL fields available, with On or Off URL command allowed or other usage URL command allowed. Also allow Username and Password configured if the 3rdparty Webrelay requiring this security feature.

  • If some 3rdparty Webrelay only support one URL command, then just leave another Off URL blank, or put whatever there as long as it is NOT a URL command.

Webrelay URL OFF

When Door relay Option set to Webrelay, then enter the correct URL used by the third party controller so that the GDS3710 send the command to disable the relay.

Webrelay Username

Enter the web relay username.

Webrelay Password

Enter the web relay password.

ALMOUT1 Feature

This option allows to choose to use Alarm_Out (COM1) interface for either as alarm out with 3rd party device, or to control a second door “Door 2” (the two functions are mutual exclusive).

Enabling this option allows to use HTTP API command to open the door remotely.

  • Disable: to disable the option.

  • Challenge + Response Authentication: this option allows the use of a multi-step method to authenticate

  • Basic Authentication: this option uses a simple request to authenticate:

1. Open the door command example:

https://admin:password@192.168.23.123/goform/apicmd?remotepin=12345&type=1

2. Close the door command example:

https://admin:password@192.168.23.123/goform/apicmd?remotepin=12345&type=2

Important note: We will not be responsible for any security problems resulting from opening the HTTP API remote function, this option is disabled by default and the user should enable it while knowing how to mitigate the risk.
Note: The option to send PIN via Wiegand when HTTP API open door executed is added on the new firmware upgrade for the GDS3710 Model.

HTTP API Open Door Compatibility Mode

If this option is enabled, HTTP API Open Door will be supported under HTTPS mode.
Disabled by Default.

Disable Keypad SIP Number Dialing

When Keypad SIP number Dialing disabled, device will interpret each digit entry as private-password open door request after pressing #.

Notes:

  • “Local PIN Type” should choose “Private PIN”.

  • Dial keypad to make SIP call will NOT work (except for doorbell button call).

  • Private PIN must be UNIQUE among users, otherwise the door will still open but log will NOT tell who opened the door due to duplicated PIN and whoever user last matched in the database with the Private PIN will be shown in the log.

Enable Card Issuing Mode

Enables RFID card issuing/program into the GDS3710. When selected sweeping an RFID card into the GDS3710 will add card information into.

Central Mode

If enabled, Group/Schedule/Holiday can only be synchronized from the Central (GDS Manager), local configuration will not be allowed.

If disabled, only local configuration from GDS3710 is allowed.

Key Sensitivity Level

Set the sensitivity level:

  • Default: with this mode, the GDS3710 is using less sensitivity keypad parameters which applied to most usage scenes, especially in warm and high humidity places like tropic regions or places near seaside or riverside wherehigh humidity weather condition exists, especially in Summer.

  • High: This option is designed for application scenes located in high latitude regions normally very cold and user might need to press the keypad with gloves. Due to the sensitivity is high, false positive might happen if such parameter used in different place like low latitude environment.

Notes: Most application scenes the Default setting of this firmware is good enough for application. Please use Default setting unless the usage scene really needs high keypad lever sensitivity.

If with default or low sensitivity keypad, the false-positive ghost call issue still happens frequently, which might indicate inappropriate wiring or installation, or maybe the hardware is faulty. Please contact Our Grandstream Support for assistance to resolve such a problem.

Key Tone Type

Configures the key tones for the GDS3710.

  • Default: Beeps will be played when pressing the GDS3710 keys.

  • DTMF: Tones will be played when pressing the GDS3710 keys.

  • Mute: No sound will be played when pressing keys.

Enable Wiegand Input

This option needs to be enabled when GDS is connected to the wiegand. output device (RFID card reader for example)

Wiegand Output

This option is to be enabled when the GDS is the wiegand output device. (example: input device is a door controller)

Door System Settings

Notes: Remote SIP phone needs password (digits 0-9 only, ended with # key) matching the configuration on the web page to open the door (via DTMF).

GDS3710 support RFID for multiple users to open door, therefore every user has its own PIN. For environment with large number of users (limit is 2000), it’s difficult for the GDS3710 to manage all these users, so a separate PC or Server should be involved for such kind of management and monitoring.

In environments with large number of users (limit is 2000), the GDS3710, another possibility would be to set one unified Local PIN for opening the door for all the users.

Using Alarm Out (COM 1) to Control a Second Door

Starting from firmware 1.0.5.2, user can now set Alarm_Out (COM1) interface to control a second Door, in additional to the existing Locker/COM2 interface (controlling Door1).

This feature allows GDS3710 to control the operation of two doors via RFID, local and remote PINs.

For example, a 3rd party Wiegand Input device or GDS3710 can be installed at Door2 with related cable wired into the control GDS3710 installed at Door1. The Door1 and Door2 can be configured to be open by programmed RFID cards, PINs either separately or both.

Alarm_Out1 Feature

  • Interface for Door Control (which Door can be OPEN):

If Alarm_Out (COM1) interface is set to control Door 2 opening, “ALMOUT1 Status” can be configured by choosing “Normal Open” or “Normal Close” based on the strike used.

Unlike default COM2 which is designed for strike control and having three connecting sockets, the COM1 only has two connecting sockets. Therefore correct lock mode has to be configured to make the strike working as expected.

For above example, the GDS3710 is configured to control Door1 (wiring to COM2 interface); the 3rd party Wiegand Input is set to control Door2 (wiring to COM1 interface).

In case of a power loss then the DOOR STATUS when power is off will be depending on the following situations:

  • COM2 has three wiring PINs, corresponding to NO or NC accordingly. Therefor when connecting NC2 and COM2 (Fail Safe) then strike will open when power is lost and when using a NO2 strike (connecting COM2 and NO2) then door is “locked” when power is lost (Fail Secure).
  • COM1 (ALMOUT1) has only two PIN, and NO ONLY. If the connected strike/lock is a NO strike, this means ALMOUT1 Status should be set to “Normal Open” then door will be closed when power is lost, while if the strike connected is NC strike, and ALMOUT1 Status is set to “Normal Close” then door will be open when power is lost.
  • Universal PIN for Operation of Doors:
Alarm_Out1 Feature

If Unified PIN (Universal PIN) is configured to open door, then which door can be controlled by the PIN is configured in the UI once “Unified PIN” selected.

For example, like above screenshot, if this universal PIN is set to open both Door1 and Door2, but due to previous “Control Option” set to open Door1, and “Wiegand Control” set to open Door2, therefore the final result will be the INTERSECT result of both sets with condition qualified.

  • Remote PIN to Operation of Doors:

For remote PIN to open door, the PIN can be configured in example down below.

The PIN can be different for Door1 and Door2 and has to be configured correctly in related IP Phone which will be used to operate “One Key Open Door”.

If BOTH doors need to be opened at the same time, then both Door1 and Door2 has to be configured with exactly SAME password or PIN as DTMF open door.

Note

For enhanced security, When call is initiated from GDS then only the numbers existing in “Number Called When Door Bell Pressed”, “Account White Lists” or “Card Management” (For GDS3710) will be able to use DTMF PIN to open door remotely.

Universal Local PIN
  • Private PIN or Card & Private PIN:
Note

This configuration is exclusive for the GDS3710 Model.

Right of Card and Private PIN

If using RFID card or Private PIN to open door, then which door can be opened by the RFID card or Private PIN is configured via “Card Management”, see above screenshot.

Note

For all the settings, the final result of which door can be opened is the LOGIC INTERSECT OPERATON of ALL the sets of condition qualified.

Please refer to our Open Door Flow chart for better understanding on how to configure and control 2 Doors operation: http://firmware.grandstream.com/GDS3710_opendoors_logic.pdf

Keep Door Open

This feature allows users to set either an immediate or scheduled open door, this will allow usage scene like schools or similar private or public places where the door needs to keep open at specific time window and closed otherwise. Also handy for buildings or properties where a seminar needs to be hosted for some period or lunch breaks in a factory or company where the door keeps open and no access log required then back to locked with authorized entry after that, by default it’s disabled.

The GDS3712 gives the option to configure Door1 and Door2 separately with either Immediate door open or Scheduled door open unlike the GDS3710 which has one configuration for both doors.

There are two modes under this section:

  1. Immediate Open Door (One Time Only Action)

Network settings
Notes

  • If the GDS371x is behind SOHO (Small Office Home Office) router with port forwarding configured for remote access, static IP should be used to avoid IP address changes after router reboot.
  • TCP port above 5000 is suggested to Port forward HTTP for remote access, due to some ISP would block port 80 for inbound traffic. For example, change the default HTTP port from 80 to 8088, to make sure the TCP port will not be blocked.
  • In addition to HTTP port, RTSP port is also required to configure via port forwarding, so that the remote party can view the video stream.
  • If the default TCP port 80 is changed to port “A”, then RTSP port should be “2000+A” (changed from default TCP 554). Both TCP port “A” and “2000+A” should be configured for port forwarding in the router. For example, of the HTTP port is changed to 8088, the RTSP port should be 10088, both TCP ports 8088 and 10088 should be configured for port forwarding to have remote GDS3710 access: 8088 for web portal, and 10088 for video streaming.

Account

Starting from version 1.0.5.6, the GDS371x supports four SIP accounts and four lines, this section covers the configuration of basic and advanced sip settings for each account.

Account 1 – 4

This page allows the administrator to configure the SIP account basic and advanced settings for each SIP account:

SIP Account Settings Page

SIP Basic Settings

Account Active

This field indicates whether the account is active. Default setting is “Yes”.

SIP Server

Configures the FQDN or IP of the SIP server from VoIP service provider or local IPPBX.

Secondary SIP Server

Configures the FQDN or IP of the secondary SIP server from the VoIP service provider or local IPPBX.
The Second SIP Server allows users to use a secondary SIP server if the primary SIP server is having problems ensuring service availability.

Outbound Proxy

Configures the IP address or the domain name of the outbound proxy, media gateway, or session border controller. It’s used by the GDS for firewall or NAT penetration in different network environments.

If a symmetric NAT is detected, STUN will not work and only an outbound proxy can provide a solution.

Backup Outbound Proxy

Configures the backup outbound proxy to be used when the “Outbound Proxy” registration fails. By default, this field is left empty.

DNS Mode

Configure which DNS mode will be used to translate the SIP Server FQDN (Default value is A Record):

  • A Record.

  • SRV.

  • NAPTR/SRV.

SIP User ID

Configures the SIP username or telephone number from ITSP.
Note: Letters, digits and special characters including @ are supported.

Authenticate ID

Configures the Authenticate ID used by SIP proxy.

Password

Sets the Authenticate password used by SIP proxy.
Note: For security reasons, the SIP password is invisible on the web UI.

Display Name

To allow user to input display name to be illustrated in far side SIP device(if having LCD display or similar hardware) so user will know what extension or device connected in SIP calling, to increase the usability.

TEL URI

Select “User=Phone” or “Enabled” from the dropdown list.
If the SIP account has an assigned PSTN telephone number, this field should be set to “User=Phone”. Then a “User=Phone” parameter will be attached to the Request-Line and “TO” header in the SIP request to indicate the E.164 number. If set to “Enable”, “Tel:” will be used instead of “SIP:” in the SIP request. The default setting is “Disable”.

SIP Advanced Settings

Registration Expiration (m)

Sets the registration expiration time.
Default setting is 60 minutes. Valid range is from 1 to 64800 minutes.

Re-register before Expiration (s)

Specifies the time-frequency (in seconds) that the GDS371x sends a re-registration request before the Register Expiration. The default value is 0. The range is from 0-64800 seconds.

Local SIP Port

Sets the local SIP port. Default setting is 5060 for Account 1, 5062 for Account 2, 5064 for Account 3, 5066 for Account 4.

SIP Transport

Chooses the SIP transport protocol. UDP, TCP or TCP/TLS.
Default setting is UDP.

Check Domain Certificates

When using SIP with TLS/TCP, the "Check Domain Certificates" parameter plays a role in determining whether the GDS371x device should verify the presented domain certificates for security purposes.

  • If "Check Domain Certificates" is enabled, the device will validate that the domain of the presented certificate matches the expected domain. This is crucial for ensuring that the communication is secure and that the device is connecting to a legitimate SIP server.

  • If "Check Domain Certificates" is disabled, the device may not perform this validation, potentially accepting certificates from domains that do not match the expected one. This could introduce security risks, as it opens the possibility for man-in-the-middle attacks or connections to unauthorized servers.

Stream

Select the Video stream to be used by the GDS371x when a call is made from this SIP Account.
The default is Stream 2.

Enable DTMF

Specifies the mechanism to transmit DTMF digits. There are 2 supported modes:
RFC2833 sends DTMF with RTP packet. Users can check the RTP packet to see the DTMFs sent as well as the number pressed.
SIP INFO uses SIP INFO to carry DTMF. Default setting is “RFC2833”

DTMF Payload Type

Configures the payload type for DTMF using RFC2833.
The default value is 101.
Range: 96~127.

Unregister On Reboot

Allows the SIP user’s registration information to be cleared when the GDS reboots. The SIP REGISTER message will contain “Expires: 0” to unbind the connection.

NAT Traversal

This parameter configures whether the NAT traversal mechanism is activated. Users could select the mechanism from No, STUN, Keep-alive,UPnP, Auto. The default setting is “No”.
If set to “STUN” and STUN server is configured, the GDS will route according to the STUN server. If NAT type is Full Cone, Restricted Cone or Port-Restricted Cone, the unit will try to use public IP addresses and port number in all the SIP&SDP messages.
The GDS will send empty SDP packet to the SIP server periodically to keep the NAT port open if it is configured to be “Keep-alive”. Configure this to be “No” if an outbound proxy is used. “STUN” cannot be used if the detected NAT is symmetric NAT. If the firewall and the SIP device behind the firewall are both able to use UPNP, it can be set to “UPNP”. Both parties will negotiate to use which port to allow SIP through.

Enable SRTP

Enable SRTP mode based on your selection from the drop-down menu.
The default setting is “Disabled”, the two other modes are “Enabled but Not Forced” and “Enabled and Forced”.

Special Feature

Configures GDS settings to meet different vendors’ server requirements.
Users can choose from Standard, Broadsoft, or Telefonica Spain.
The default setting is “Standard”.

Outbound Proxy Mode

In route: outbound proxy FQDN is placed in the routeing header. This is used for the SIP Extension to notify the SIP server that the device is behind a NAT/Firewall.
Always sent to SIP messages will always be sent to the Outbound proxy.
Not in route: remove the Route header from SIP requests.

Enable RTCP

This option allows 3rd party Service Providers or Cloud Solutions to monitor the operation status of the GDS371x by using related SIP Calls.
By default, it’s disabled. Users can choose either RTCP or RTCP-XR.

H.264 Payload Type

The H.264 payload type can now be configured to be compatible with 3rd party video phones, as well as other advanced SIP settings, to easy the system integration process. The default is 99.

Accept Incoming SIP from Proxy Only

When set to “Yes”, the SIP address of the Request URL in the incoming SIP message will be checked. If it doesn’t match the SIP server address of the account, the call will be rejected. The default setting is disabled.

Add MAC in User-Agent

This option is used with 3CX so that the GDS37xx can be compatible with 3CX auto-provisioning. The option adds the MAC address into User-Agent in the SIP Header.
No: to disable the option
Yes to all SIP: SIP messages will always behave User-Agent
Yes except REGISTER: SIP messages will always behave User-Agent except for the REGISTER message

SIP URI Scheme When Using TLS

This option allows the GDS371x to work with the Cisco WebEX server as a SIP client. The two modes are SIP and SIPS.

Support SIP Instance ID

When enabled, the GDS371x will work with the Cisco WebEx server as a SIP client.

Hard Factory Reset

Note

Resetting the device on the Wiegand interface cable is supported only on the GDS3710 Model.

Some users did not keep the revised password safely and forgot the changed password. Due to GDS3710 did NOT have built-in reset button (Grandstream purposely designed this way to enhance security), this will make the GDS3710 inaccessible even for the true owner who lost the changed password.

Starting from firmware 1.0.2.21, Grandstream introduced a special way to do hard factory reset using the Wiegand Interface Cable shipped with GDS3710. Below is a photo of the normal connection of the provided Wiegand cable.

Important Note

Power must NOT be lost while performing hard factory reset.

Wiegand Interface Cable

To perform hard factory reset to the GDS371x, please refer to following steps:

  1. Power OFF the GDS3710.
  2. Take the provided Wiegand cable, connect (or shorting) the related color wires as illustrated on the following picture. Please make sure the connection is correct and solid:
  • Connect WHITE and BROWN cable together.
  • Connect GREEN and ORANGE cable together.
Wiegand Cable Connection

3. Power ON the GDS3710. In about 10 seconds, the key pad LED lighting will change from solid lighting to blinking, the blinking time window is about 30 seconds. The user needs to enter the following key combination *0# while the LED is blinking.

Notes

  • If the correct key combination inputted, the last key input will play with a long tone, illustrating the correct key combination entered, then the GDS3710 will get into factory reset mode.
  • During the blinking time window, if the user does not finish the key combination operation, or pressed the wrong key combination, the GDS3710 will play short beep quickly three times illustrating error. Nothing will happen and the GDS3710 will get into normal booting process. User who wants to do hard factory reset has to perform the operation from the beginning again.

4. After 3 ~ 5 minutes the GDS3710 will finish performing the reset process, then the user can log into the GDS3710 web GUI using the shipped default password.

5. User has to power OFF the GDS3710, unplug the Wiegand cable, power ON the GDS3710 again and make sure the GDS3710 is running correctly.

The GDS37xx can be reset using the GS Search tool by following these steps :

  1. Open the GS Search tool that can be downloaded from the Grandstream tools page.
GS Search main interface.

2. Select the device in question, in our example it is the GDS37xx, and then select Facility Device Password Recovery.

  2. Go to Phone Settings # page.
  3. Enable “Allow Reset Via SIP NOTIFY” by checking this option. (Default is disabled)
  4. Once a SIP NOTIFY with “event: reset” is received, the GDS37xx will perform factory reset after authentication phase.
Notes

  • Received SIP NOTIFY will be first challenged for authentication purpose before taking factory reset action.
  • The authentication can be done either using admin password (if no SIP account is configured) or via SIP account credentials (SIP User ID and Password).

Restore factory password via special key combination

Note

The following configuration is exclusive to the GDS3710 Model.

This feature allows customers to reset the device administrator password to factory default via keypad operation through some special key combination.

When performing this operation, ONLY password will be reset back to factory default. All other setting or parameters will NOT be changed and will remain the same. This feature is specially designed for field engineers or technicians when dispatched in field but for some reason the administrator password is not available therefore not able to access the GDS37xx device to do the related maintenance.

Here are the steps to do such password reset operation via keypad:

Encoding Rules:

Alphabet A – Z mapping to digit 1 – 26 respectively, no difference in lower or up case.

Notes

  1. MAC address of the GDS37xx (check the sticker at back of the device)
  2. Default password of the GDS37xx (check the sticker at the back of the device)
  3. Correct decoding the last 6 MAC address into digits (refer to encoding rule)
  4. Correct decoding the default password into digits (refer to encoding rule)
  5. Finish keypad input within 1 minute

Operation Steps:

1) When device is idle, input the special keypad combination with format: ***last_6_MAC**#

2) Device will reach restore mode after correct digits in Step 1) entered. The backlight of keypad will flash quickly to tell operator the device is now in password reset/restore mode.

3) Operator will enter the correct decoded default password ending with # with format: default_password_code# via the keypad within 60 seconds.

4) If wrong code combination entered, the GDS37xx will beep with error sound (three short beeps) then exit the password reset mode, and the backlight will stop flashing.

5) If the correct default password decoded entered within 60 seconds, GDS37xx will play a long beep sound (advising correct operation), the device will reboot itself automatically.

6) If keypad entry time out (not finish the input within 60 seconds), the device will exit this password reset mode automatically and stop the backlight flashing. After successful password reset, operator will then be able to log into the GDS37xx webUI with default password, all the configuration inside the device will be the same and will NOT be changed.

For example:

Decoding the string into digits and write to paper before doing the operation:

  • Device with last 6 MAC address: 33DDDD
  • Decoding the last 6 MAC to digits would be: 334444
  • Default password is: xwpxz6AA
  • Decoding the default password to digits would be: 2423162426611

1) Enter ***334444**# via keypad, get into the password reset mode, the keypad backlight will flash quickly. 2) Within 60 seconds, enter 2423162426611#, the device will play one long beep then reboot itself.

2) Wait the device finishing boot up, log in the webUI using the default password, xwpxz6AA
