Cautions
- In order to improve the security of the product network, please change the password of the user name regularly. It is recommended to change it every 3 months. If the IP camera is used in a high security risk environment, it is recommended to update once a month or every week.
- It is recommended that the system administrator manages the user effectively, removes the unrelated user and shuts down the unnecessary network port.

- The admin user cannot be deleted and you can only change the admin password.
- User permission description: Administrator -- all permissions.
Operator -- All permissions (cannot make system security parameter settings).
Viewer -- only preview permission. - When setting the IP camera password, the password length is 8-31 characters and must contain numbers and letters.
Password strength rules are as follows:
- If the set password contains three or more types (numbers, lowercase letters, uppercase letters, special characters), it is a strong password.
- If the password is set to a combination of numbers and special characters, lowercase letters and special combinations of characters, capital letters and special characters, lowercase letters and uppercase letters, are in the password.
- If the password is set to a combination of numbers and lowercase letters, numbers and uppercase letters are weak passwords.
- Password length is equal to 8, the password contains only one type of character, password and user name or password is the user name of the write, the above types of passwords are risk password, do not recommend this set.
To better protect your privacy and improve product safety, we recommend that you change your risk password to a high-strength password.
∅ First modified (admin user) password

Step 4: To set related parameters, set the minimum face recognition pixel, open the face tracking frame, turn on the OSD overlay, and set the face contrast recognition threshold.

Figure 8-46
【Face recognition minimum pixels】It means that a face which is larger than the pixel in the monitor screen will be recognized.
【Face tracking frame】After being turned on, the monitor screen recognizes that the face will be selected by the red frame, and the frame will move as the face moves to realize face tracking.
【Face alarm】After being turned on, the device will alarm when it detects a face according to the capture mode, and the relevant information can be found in the log.
【Capture blur threshold】Sets the capture face sharpness value. When the device recognizes that the face reaches the resolution, the device performs a snap action.
【Snap mode】 It consists of Ordinary capture, Face library capture, and Non-face library capture. The device captures according to the capture mode.
【Face contrast recognition threshold】The smaller the threshold is set, the lower the comparison between the face and the face database is. If the threshold is 20, there are several similarities between tracking the face and the face database. The OSD displays the comparison result. Otherwise, the setting threshold is larger. The higher the requirement is to track the face and face database. If the threshold is set to 100, the tracking face must be 100% similar to a picture in the face database to be recognized and displayed on the OSD.
