Important Safeguards and Warnings
This chapter describes the contents covering proper handling of the access controller, hazard
prevention, and prevention of property damage. Read these contents carefully before using the
access controller, comply with them when using, and keep it well for future reference.
Operation Requirement
Do not place or install the access controller in a place exposed to sunlight or near the heat
source.
Keep the access controller away from dampness, dust or soot.
Keep the access controller installed horizontally on the stable place to prevent it from
falling.
Do not drop or splash liquid onto the access controller, and make sure there is no object
filled with liquid on the access controller to prevent liquid from flowing into the access
controller.
Install the access controller in a well-ventilated place, and do not block the ventilation of
the access controller.
Operate the access controller within the rated range of power input and output.
Do not dissemble the access controller.
Transport, use and store the access controller under the allowed humidity and temperature
conditions.
Electrical Safety
Improper battery use might result in fire, explosion, or inflammation.
When replacing battery, make sure the same model is used.
Use the recommended power cables in the region and conform to the rated power
specification.
Use the power adapter provided with the access controller; otherwise, it might result in
people injury and device damage.
The power source shall conform to the requirement of the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV)
standard, and supply power with rated voltage which conforms to Limited power Source
requirement according to IEC60950-1. Please note that the power supply requirement is

Configure parameters on the interface. See Table 3-1.Step 2
Table 3-1 New user parameter description
Parameter
Description
User ID
You can enter user IDs. The IDs consist of 32 characters (including numbers
and letters), and each ID is unique.
Name
You can enter names with at most 32 characters (including numbers, symbols,
and letters).
FP
At most three fingerprints of one user can be recorded, and one fingerprint

the three fingerprints can be the duress fingerprint. Alarms will be triggered if a
duress fingerprint is used to unlock the door.
It is not recommended to set the thumb fingerprint as the duress fingerprint.
Fingerprint unlock is available on select models.
Face
Make sure that your face is centered on the picture capturing frame, and then a
picture of your face will be automatically captured. For details about face image
recording, see "Appendix 1 Notes of Face Recording/Comparison."

System Operation 14
Parameter
Description
Card
You can register five cards for each user. On the card registration interface,
enter your card number or swipe your card, and then the card information will be
read by the access controller.
You can enable the Duress Card function on the card registration interface.
Alarms will be triggered if a duress card is used to unlock the door.
If the access controller is without card reading module, you need to connect the
device to peripheral card readers.
Password
The door unlocking password. The maximum length of the password is 8
characters.
If the access controller is without touch screen, you need to connect the access
controller to a peripheral card reader. There are buttons on the card reader.
Level
You can select a user level for new users. There are two options.
User: Users only have door unlock authority.

Admin:Administrators can not only unlock the door but also have

parameter configuration authority.
In case that you forget the administrator password, you had better create more
than one administrator.
Period
You can set a period in which the user can unlock the door. For detailed period
settings, see the user manual.
Holiday
Plan
You can set a holiday plan in which the user can unlock the door. For detailed
holiday plan settings, see the configuration manual.
Valid Date
You can set a period during which the unlocking information of the user is valid.
User Level
There are six levels:
General: General users can unlock the door normally.

Blacklist: When users in the blacklist unlock the door, service personnel will

get a prompt.
Guest: Guests are allowed to unlock the door certain times in certain

periods. Once they exceed the maximum times and periods, they cannot
unlock the door again.
Patrol: Patrolling users can get their attendance tracked, but they have no

unlock authority.
VIP: When VIP unlocks the door, service personnel will get a prompt.

Special: When special people unlock the door, there will be a delay of 5

seconds before the door is closed.
Use Time
When the user level is Guest, you can set the maximum times that the guest
can unlock the door.
After you have configured all the parameters, tap to save the configuration.Step 3
A new user is created.
For access controllers without touch screen, you need to create users through
management platforms. See details in the user manual.

Web Operation 15
4 Web Operation
The access controller can be configured and operated on the web. Through the web you can
set parameters including network parameters, video parameters, and access controller
parameters; and you can also maintain and update the system.
Login
You need to set a password and an email address before logging in to the web for the first time.
Password you set is used to log in to the web, and the email is used to retrieve passwords.
Open IE web browser, enter the IP address (192.168.1.108 by default) of the accessStep 1 controller in the address bar, and then press Enter.
Make sure that the computer used to log in to the web is in the same LAN with the
device.
7-inch model B access controllers of have dual NICs. The default management
address for 1000M Ethernet port is 192.168.1.108, and for 100M Ethernet port is
192.168.2.108. LoginFigure 4-1
Enter the username and password.Step 2
The default username of administrator is admin, and the password is the login
password after initializing the access controller. Modify the administrator
password regularly and keep it properly for security.
If you forget the administrator login password, you can click Forget Password? to
reset it. See the user manual.
Click Login.Step 3 The homepage of the web is displayed.
