Installation
Connect your AXIS C8310 Volume Controller to the I/O connector of any device in your system. We recommend that you simply choose the device that is located closest to your AXIS C8310 Volume Controller.
The volume controller 4-pin connector on AXIS C8310 is specifically designed to work with the I/O Port 1 on the connectivity hub, utilizing pins 1-4 (GND, 12V, I/O, and I/O). Once connected, those ports cannot be configured for other uses.
The host device must have firmware version 11.6 or later.
Get started
Use AXIS C8310 Volume Controller with AXIS Audio Manager Edge
For instructions, see Control audio with AXIS C8310 Volume Controller in the AXIS Audio Manager Edge user manual.
Use AXIS C8310 Volume Controller with AXIS Audio Manager Pro
You need to have AXIS Audio Manager Pro version 4.4 to use it with an AXIS C8310 Volume Controller.
For instructions, see Control audio with AXIS C8310 Volume Controller in the AXIS Audio Manager Pro user manual.
Configure your device
Make a SIP call
Use your AXIS C8310 to initiate a SIP call from a speaker with a built-in microphone to a SIP recipient.
In this example we initiate and hang up the call with the same button. We have chosen source button 1, but you can choose any button on your AXIS C8310.
If you are using the same button for source control in AXIS Audio Manager Edge or Pro, you might want to unassign that functionality in those applications.
For more information about rules that trigger actions, see Get started with rules for events.
Open the web interface of the speaker that your AXIS C8310 is connected to:
Enter the IP address of the speaker in a browser.
Go to Audio > Peripherals and make sure your AXIS C8310 is connected.
Go to System > SIP and make sure SIP is set up and activated.
Add a recipient:
Go to System > Events > Recipients and click + Add recipient.
Name the recipient.
Under Type, select SIP or VMS.

To avoid initiating more than one call, we add an extra condition:

To only perform the action if there is an ongoing call, we need to add another condition:

Select Call > State.
Under State, select Active.
Under Action, select Calls > End calls.
Click Save.
