Device Installation
Follow these steps to mount the device securely:

- Prepare the wall: Paste the drill template on the wall with the arrow facing upward. Use a 6-6.5mm drill bit to drill two 30mm-depth holes at the marked positions. Insert expansion bolts, taking care not to damage cables inside the wall.
- Mount the bracket: Place the bracket with the arrow facing outward. Secure it using the expansion bolts and pointed tail screws.
- Connect cables: Connect the network cable to the rear panel interface. Connect the integrated cables to the door sensor, alarm, and other devices as required.
- Attach cover: Fasten the cover to the terminal using three short Phillips screws.
- Secure terminal: Loosen the tamper-proof screws on both sides of the device using the T10 screwdriver. Align the hook on the bracket with the groove on the terminal, secure the terminal to the bracket, and tighten the tamper-proof screws.
Wiring
The device uses a tail cable with color-coded wires for various functions:
- Power: Red (12V power input), Black (GND).
- Door/Button: Light green (Door magnetic input), Yellow/Black (Button input), Pink (Door lock_NC), White/Yellow (Door lock_COM), White/Green (Door lock_NO).
- Communication: Orange (RS485_A), Yellow (RS485_B), Blue (Wiegand input_D0), White (Wiegand input_D1), Brown (Wiegand output_D0), Green (Wiegand output_D1).
- Alarm: Purple (Alarm input_1), White/Purple (Alarm input_2), Gray (Alarm output_NC), White/Orange (Alarm output_COM), White/Blue (Alarm output_NO).
Startup and Web Login
After installation, connect the power adapter to the device and the mains supply. To configure the device via a web browser:
- Default IP Address: 192.168.1.13
- Default Username: admin
- Default Password: 123456
Note: For security, change the default password immediately upon first login. Use a strong password containing at least nine characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, and special characters.
Recognition Requirements
To ensure accurate recognition, follow these guidelines:

- Photo Collection: Face the camera directly without wearing hats or caps. Ensure the photo shows both ears and the area from the top of the head to the bottom of the neck. Use true color photos with solid backgrounds (white or blue). Avoid heavy makeup.
- Position: The effective recognition distance is 0.5m to 2m. Avoid standing in restricted areas 1 or 2 as indicated in the manual.
- Posture: Maintain a natural expression. Avoid tilting, turning to the side, raising, or bowing the head.
Safety and Security
Ensure the device is installed in a proper environment with adequate ventilation. Do not stack devices. Use a UL-certified power supply. For network security, regularly change passwords, enable HTTPS/SSL, disable unused ports (like UPnP and SNMP), and isolate the video surveillance network.
