Configure Microphone and Speaker


Zoiper comes with a built-in Audio Wizard for easy configuration of your microphone and Speaker.

You may access this Audio Wizard by:


Clicking on the speaker icon on the bottom right
Clicking on the Settings menu in Zoiper and selecting Audio Wizard

Zoiper will configure your Speakers first.

Click on the start the test button.


If your speakers are configured and connected properly, you should hear a ringing sound. If you do, please click on the Yes button and move on to the Microphone step.

If no ringing sound was heard, please make sure your speakers are connected properly and powered on and if needed change the selected audio device on the bottom of the page to
a different one and try again by clicking on the no button.

Click on the Test your microphone button to start recording your voice.
If the selected microphone is connected properly, you should see the volume meter move when speaking into the microphone. If the volume meter is not moving, please check your
cabling and make sure the proper audio device is selected in the Device section on the bottom of the page.

Configuring a SIP, IAX or XMPP account


Now that the audio devices are configured, it is time to move on to the configuration of the server you want to use. This could be a VoIP provider, your office PBX or a public XMPP
provider such as Facebook.

Click on the Settings menu and select create a new account.

Account Type
A new page will appear to select the type of account you want to make. This will usually be SIP, unless your VoIP provider or system administrator instructed you otherwise

Select the type of account you want to configure and click on the Next button.

Tip: Please visit http://oem.zoiper.com (http://oem.zoiper.com/) for more information on how to make things easier for your users by providing them with a preconfigured or
preprovisioned Zoiper. This will bypass all tedious configuration tasks for the end user and will allow the user to make calls immediately after the installation.

Credentials
Your provider or system administrator should have provided you with a username, password and possibly a hostname.

Fill in the username on the first line and the password on the second line.

If your administrator provider you with a domain, proxy, registrar, hostname, outbound proxy or server field, please fill enter it on the last line.

Fill in the username on the first line and the password on the second line. The username could look like:

john.doe

or:

john.doe@sip.example.com

or:

john.doe@sip.example.com:5060

or:

abc123cde

The password will typically be a random string, usually with a combination of lowercase and uppercase characters and some number like:

dHOE5NBjqmS3

This field will typically look like:

sip.example.com

or:

sip.example.com:5060

or in case of a PBX might look like:

192.168.1.20

Account name
Please enter a name to identify this account; you are free to give it any name of your liking.
When you are done, click on the next button. Zoiper will now try to figure out the best way to connect to the VOIP server.

Troubleshooting

In case the account wizard is unable to automatically configure your account, this could be due to a variety of reasons.

Most common reasons are:

The server hostname does not exist or is incorrect.


The username or password is incorrect.
The server is not responding or a firewall is blocking the access.
The account needs additional configuration to register

Please verify the information you have entered and try again.

If you are sure the information are correct and want to save the information and want to complete the configuration manually, click on I know what I am doing, save this information
anyway.

See also Preferences -> Accounts.

Overview of the Interface


Zoiper is designed to make communications easier and more intuitive. It is a powerful tool that combines voice, video and instant messaging in one.

The picture above shows the basic overview of the Zoiper interface.

Menu Bar
The menu bar consists of the Account dropdown, Settings menu, the Help menu and the language selector.

Account dropdown
The account dropdown is only present when 2 or more sip or iax2 accounts have been configured. Changing the selected provider changes the default account used for the outgoing
calls.

This selection has no effect on instant messages or contacts with a hardcoded account.

Settings menu

The settings menu lets you access the Account Wizard, the Zoiper p2p service, the preferences menu, the Audio Wizard and the Automation menu.

Help menu

Here you can check for the latest version of Zoiper; the manual; visit our website; show the quick logs, about box; the manual, enable or disable the debug log; report a problem to the
Zoiper team or read the about box.

Language menu
This dropdown lets you change the language. Contact us on support@zoiper.com if you would like to translate Zoiper in your language.

Search / Input field


This field can be used to

Dial the number entered in this field


Search for this name or number in the contact list(s)

Using the search functionality


A search may be made for phone numbers / extensions, digits or letters for names of contacts. For example, the overview image shows a search for the first three letters of the name
Peter.

Typing in just the first syllable (i.e. pe) is enough to instantly bring all results that contain this sequence of letters. With each letter typed, the search is narrowed down to the right
contact. You do not need to type the entire name: click on the chosen contact when the results are filtered out to just a few give him / her a call by clicking on the call button, or
send a Fax, or start an Instant Messaging session using the functional buttons.

Note that you may perform a similar search with the matching digits of a phone number.

It is possible to also search LDAP or the native contact and aggregate the results in the contact list. See the tutorial for using LDAP with Zoiper
(https://www.zoiper.com/en/tutorials/ldap).

Using the Dial functionality


You may enter any phone number / extension to make a VoIP call. Just type it in the field and click the Call - button, or hit enter to dial.

Call and hang-up buttons


These buttons provide the basic phone functionality of Zoiper. Both buttons are grey and disabled by default.

When you type something in the Search / Input field or click on a chosen contact, it becomes green.

The Call button is used for dialing phone numbers / extensions. It becomes enabled (green) when you:

Click on a contact;
Type a contact name to call in the search / input field
Type the phone number / extension in the search / input field

On the right side of the call button you may find a dropdown to send a fax or start an instant messaging conversation instead of an ordinary call.

The Hang-up - button is to the right of the Call button. It becomes red while dialing or in the middle of an active call.

The tab bar and tabbed windows


The tabbed windows feature provides convenient access to all functionalities. The tab windows are accessible via the Tab-bar located beneath the Call and Hang-up buttons.

The four tabs bring the relevant windows: Contacts, History, Dial pad and Active calls to the foreground.

All these windows are dockable. This means that you can drag them away from the main Zoiper window. This is particularly useful if you want to, for example, browse your Contact list
and have your Dial pad on display at the same time.

Contact tab
The contact tab shows a list with all contacts or, if a search is active, all contacts that result from the search query in the search field,

regardless if they were found in the Zoiper contact list, on an external XCAP server or in the XMPP roster or the LDAP directory.

The contacts are ordered in subgroups, with a small triangle next to their name that allows the user to hide or show the contacts for a given group.

Clicking on a contact results in the contact field expanding to reveal more details and options, while at the same time enabling the green call button.

If multiple numbers are available for a contact, a dropdown will appear on the right of the telephone number, giving access to all other numbers for that contact.

The small call button underneath lets you dial the contact, while the small dropdown triangle reveals additional options such as The More-button on the right, lets you edit the
contact (if it is in the Zoiper contact list and not in an external contact source) or copy the contact to the clipboard.

On the bottom of the tab there is a contact menu, to quickly add or import a contact from LDAP or the native address book. The Sort button lets you sort the people based on their
name or their online status. The filter button allows filtering out the offline people.

Entering a few characters in the search field will filter the results shown below, just like in the contacts list tab.

History tab
You can open this tab by clicking on it.
The history tab shows a list with the history of calls and faxes exchanged, In a way very similar to the contact list tab.

The events are listed consecutively with date and time for each event.

The history stores the information about events such as:

Incoming calls
Outgoing calls
Missed calls
Incoming faxes
Outgoing faxes
Unanswered calls
Rejected calls

If you have missed a call, you may dial back the caller right away. You may observe the length of calls or the contents of messages. History also allows you to bring up faxes received, if
you like to.

When Zoiper is restarted, the History from previous sessions is still present. The previous Zoiper session (from launch to Zoiper shutdown) is saved in a History.txt text file, this file is
located in the %appdata% folder, in the Zoiper subdirectory.

Each new History is listed underneath the previous one according to its date and time.

Clicking on a contact shows more details and options.

On the bottom of the tab, a delete button lets you delete the complete history at once, the filter button allows filtering of the contacts based on the calls release / hangup reason
and if it was an incoming or outgoing call.

Dialpad
Clicking on the dial pad opens up a traditional dialpad, to either dial a number or to navigate an IVR through DTMF tones.
Active call tab

Bottom Bar
On the bottom of the phone, a small menu is available with easy access for changing the online status, checking voicemail messages, showing missed calls, audio device selection and
the audio wizard.

Online status
This is an indicator of the online status of your current account. The people that have added you in their contact lists may view your online status as well. Choose the status that suits
you best.

In order to change the current status, you may:

Choose the online status you wish to use from the Online status button and click on it.
Go to the settings > Zoiper p2p > status and click on the status you want to display.

Changing the status will affect all configured SIP and XMPP accounts with the "publish presence" option enabled in the settings. When on an active call, the status will automatically
be changed to "on the phone".

Voicemail messages
The message-waiting indicator will light up when you have new voice messages. This requires the support for MWI by your PBX or VoIP provider.

Clicking on the voicemail icon will dial the voicemail extension that was configured for that account.

You can configure the MWI in Settings > Preferences > { SIP account } > advanced > Subscribe for MWI. Refer to this link for more information.

Missed calls
The missed calls indicator will light up when you have missed calls, a counter on the right will inform you how many you missed.

Clicking on the icon will take you to the history tab, with the missed calls pre-filtered.

Audio icon
The audio icon provides a quick way to change the audio device or start the audio wizard.

Preferences

You can access the Zoiper Preferences window, by either:

Clicking on the Settings menu and clicking on preferences;


In all cases the Zoiper Options screen will pop up with these sections:

Accounts

If you have one or more accounts, you will see them listen in the left column on the accounts page.

The accounts are grouped by protocol. (SIP, IAX, XMPP), an icon in front of the account informs you of the current status: registered, failed to register or not registered.

When you click on an account, settings for this specific account will open. What settings will be shown depends on the protocol type. (SIP, IAX or XMPP).

The available codecs shows the unselected codecs, when you select them and click on the right point arrow, they will be added to the selected codecs.

Using the up and down arrow in the selected codecs column, will change the priority of the codec, the higher in the list, the higher the priority.

Keep in mind that the codec that ends up being used will be negotiated between zoiper and the other end, from the list of codecs available on both sides.

Advanced
Advanced account options

Registration The maximum number of seconds between consecutive registrations on the server. Zoiper will register 10% earlier than configured to account for network delays
expiry and retransmissions.

The registration procedure is used to inform the server of our location to make sure incoming calls will arrive properly. Registration is sometimes also required by
the server to make outgoing calls.

Subscribe A dropdown to let you configure the use of Message Waiting Indicators. This option is needed to show the number of voicemails on the server on the main panel,
for MWI next to the voicemail icon.

Possible options are:

both
disabled
before registration
after registration
both (before and after registration)

Some servers will refuse the registration or the use of MWI based on the order of the packets sent.

Use BLF This checkbox enabled the Busy Lamp Field functionality. When an extension with BLF configured is busy, you will be able to see its presence status as busy in the
contacts list.

Subscribe Checking this box will cause Zoiper to subscribe for presence updates from the people on its contact list.
presence

Publish Checking this box will cause Zoiper to start sending its presence updates to the people on its contact list.
presence

Send KPML Enable this option to use KPML If the server confirms it supports it. This is mainly used in combination with Cisco Callmanager and will replace the other DTMF
capabilities.
Use DTMF This configures which method will be used to send DTMF tones to the server when a button is pressed on the Dial Pad.

The default setting is to use RFC-2833, which means sending them as a special type of RTP packets. Alternate options are to send them with a SIP info message, or
send them inband as an RTP audio packet.

This last method is very unreliable and incompatible with voice compression; it will only work when using the uLaw or aLaw codecs. Do not use inband unless the
server or providers provides you no other choice.

Use rport Nat handling based on the rport RFC. Recommended for TCP and TLS configurations.

Use rport Last resort for NAT related missing audio for some broken implementations (e.g. when the client is behind a symmetric nat in combination with a CUCM server).
media Use with caution and only if needed.

Transport This dropdown lets you select between UDP, TCP and encrypted TLS for the signaling between the server and the softphone. UDP is the most compatible setting.

SRTP This dropdown lets you enable or disable SRTP. SRTP will only work if used in combination when the encrypted signaling (TLS) is configured in the dropdown
above.

Force RFC- This force a change in the hold and unhold packets and is a workaround for some broken implementations that do not advertise the supported hold methods
3264 properly. Use this when experiencing issues putting a call on hold and you confirm NAT is not to blame.

STUN This dropdown lets you select the stun server you want to use, if any.

The default stun server is stun.zoiper.com,

If you use the custom stun option, you will need to fill it in at the bottom of the page in the stun options section.
