The picture below is for reference only, and face parameters might differ depending on models of the product.

Figure 2-18 Face parameter

Table 2-12 Description of face parameters

Name Description
Face Threshold	Adjust the face recognition accuracy. Higher threshold means higher accuracy.
Max. Angle of Face	Set the maximum face pose angle for face detection. Larger value means larger face angle range. If the face pose angle is out of the defined range, the face detection box will not appear.
Pupillary Distance	Face images require desired pixels between the eyes (called pupillary distance) for successful recognition. The default pixel is 45. The pixel changes according to the face size and the distance between faces and the lens. If an adult is 1.5 meters away from the lens, the pupillary distance can be 50 px-70 px.
Recognition Timeout (S)	If a person with access permission has their face successfully recognized, the Device will prompt face recognition success. You can enter the prompt interval time.
Invalid Face Prompt Interval (S)	If a person without access permission attempts to unlock the door for several times in the defined interval, the Device will prompt face recognition failure. You can enter the prompt interval time.
Temp Parameters	Only Device with temperature monitoring supports this function.Temperature Monitoring: Enable or disable this function.Temp Rect: Set whether to display the temperature monitoring box or not.Temp Monitoring Distance (cm): 50 by default. You must monitor your temperature standing away from the Device at the distance you define.Temp Correction Duration (ms): When monitoring the temperature, the Device will take the temperature value after the time defined by this parameter.High Temp Threshold: Set the temperature threshold. The monitored body temperature will be judged as high temperature if it is greater than or equal to the set value.Max/Min temperature: Set the temperature range you need. If the monitored temperature is lower than the lower limit, it will prompt that the temperature is too low; if higher than the upper limit, it will prompt that there is a heat source interfering with the function.Temp Correction Value: This parameter is for testing. The difference of the temperature monitoring environment might cause the temperature deviation between the monitored temperature and the actual temperature. You can select multiple monitored samples for testing, and then correct the temperature deviation by this parameter according to the comparison between the monitored temperature and the actual temperature. For example, if the monitored temperature is 0.5^ lower than the actual temperature, the correction value is set to 0.5^ ; if the monitored temperature is 0.5^ higher than the actual temperature, the correction value is set to -0.5^ .Temp Monitoring Mode:Auto: Uses a face heat map for face recognition; if heat maps are not found, it will automatically change to calibration mode.Thermogram: Uses only a heat map for face recognition and temperature monitoring.Calibration: Uses a white light image of a face for face recognition, and then extract and apply the coordinates on the face heat map for temperature monitoring.Temp Unit: Select° C or° F.Evn Compensation Value: This value will be added to the monitored environment temperature.
Anti-fake Threshold	Avoid false face recognition by using a photo, video, mask or a different substitute for an authorized person's face.
Mask Parameters	Mask mode:◇ No detect: Mask is not detected during face recognition.◇ Mask reminder: Mask is detected during face recognition. If the person is not wearing a mask, the system will remind them to wear masks, and access is allowed.◇ Mask intercept: Mask is detected during face recognition. If a person is not wearing a mask, the system will remind them to wear masks, and access is denied.● Mask Recognition Threshold: Higher threshold means higher mask detection accuracy.

• Make sure that the face takes up more than 1/3 but no more than 2/3 of the whole image area, and the aspect ratio does not exceed 1:2.

Appendix 4 Cybersecurity Recommendations

Mandatory actions to be taken for basic equipment network security:

1. Use Strong Passwords

Please refer to the following suggestions to set passwords:

• The length should not be less than 8 characters.
• Include at least two types of characters; character types include upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols.
• Do not contain the account name or the account name in reverse order.
• Do not use continuous characters, such as 123, abc, etc.
• Do not use overlapped characters, such as 111, aaa, etc.

2. Update Firmware and Client Software in Time

• According to the standard procedure in Tech-industry, we recommend to keep your equipment (such as NVR, DVR, IP camera, etc.) firmware up-to-date to ensure the system is equipped with the latest security patches and fixes. When the equipment is connected to the public network, it is recommended to enable the "auto-check for updates" function to obtain timely information of firmware updates released by the manufacturer.
• We suggest that you download and use the latest version of client software.

"Nice to have" recommendations to improve your equipment network security:

1. Physical Protection

We suggest that you perform physical protection to equipment, especially storage devices. For example, place the equipment in a special computer room and cabinet, and implement well-done access control permission and key management to prevent unauthorized personnel from carrying out physical contacts such as damaging hardware, unauthorized connection of removable equipment (such as USB flash disk, serial port), etc.

2. Change Passwords Regularly

We suggest that you change passwords regularly to reduce the risk of being guessed or cracked.

3. Set and Update Passwords Reset Information Timely

The device supports password reset function. Please set up related information for password reset in time, including the end user's mailbox and password protection questions. If the information changes, please modify it in time. When setting password protection questions, it is suggested not to use those that can be easily guessed.

4. Enable Account Lock

The account lock feature is enabled by default, and we recommend you to keep it on to guarantee the account security. If an attacker attempts to log in with the wrong password several times, the corresponding account and the source IP address will be locked.

5. Change Default HTTP and Other Service Ports

We suggest you to change default HTTP and other service ports into any set of numbers between 1024–65535, reducing the risk of outsiders being able to guess which ports you are using.

6. Enable HTTPS

We suggest you to enable HTTPS, so that you visit Web service through a secure communication channel.

7. MAC Address Binding

We recommend you to bind the IP and MAC address of the gateway to the equipment, thus reducing the risk of ARP spoofing.

8. Assign Accounts and Privileges Reasonably

According to business and management requirements, reasonably add users and assign a

minimum set of permissions to them.

9. Disable Unnecessary Services and Choose Secure Modes

If not needed, it is recommended to turn off some services such as SNMP, SMTP, UPnP, etc., to reduce risks.

If necessary, it is highly recommended that you use safe modes, including but not limited to the following services:

• SNMP: Choose SNMP v3, and set up strong encryption passwords and authentication passwords.
• SMTP: Choose TLS to access mailbox server.
• FTP: Choose SFTP, and set up strong passwords.
• AP hotspot: Choose WPA2-PSK encryption mode, and set up strong passwords.

10. Audio and Video Encrypted Transmission

If your audio and video data contents are very important or sensitive, we recommend that you use encrypted transmission function, to reduce the risk of audio and video data being stolen during transmission.

Reminder: encrypted transmission will cause some loss in transmission efficiency.

11. Secure Auditing

• Check online users: we suggest that you check online users regularly to see if the device is logged in without authorization.
• Check equipment log: By viewing the logs, you can know the IP addresses that were used to log in to your devices and their key operations.

12. Network Log

Due to the limited storage capacity of the equipment, the stored log is limited. If you need to save the log for a long time, it is recommended that you enable the network log function to ensure that the critical logs are synchronized to the network log server for tracing.

13. Construct a Safe Network Environment

In order to better ensure the safety of equipment and reduce potential cyber risks, we recommend:

• Disable the port mapping function of the router to avoid direct access to the intranet devices from external network.
• The network should be partitioned and isolated according to the actual network needs. If there are no communication requirements between two sub networks, it is suggested to use VLAN, network GAP and other technologies to partition the network, so as to achieve the network isolation effect.
• Establish the 802.1x access authentication system to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to private networks.
• Enable IP/MAC address filtering function to limit the range of hosts allowed to access the device.
