Cautions
- The equipment has been designed, when required, modified for connection to an IT power distribution system.
- The USB port of the equipment is used for connecting to a mouse, a keyboard, or a USB flash drive only.
• The serial port of the equipment is used for debugging only. -
- identifies the positive terminal(s) of equipment which is used with, or generates direct current.
- identifies the negative terminal(s) of equipment which is used with, or generates direct current.
- Do not drop the device or subject it to physical shock, and do not expose it to high electromagnetism radiation. Avoid the equipment installation on vibrations surface or places subject to shock (ignorance can cause equipment damage).
- Do not place the device in extremely hot (refer to the specification of the device for the detailed operating temperature), cold, dusty or damp locations, and do not expose it to high electromagnetic radiation.
• The device cover for indoor use shall be kept from rain and moisture. - Exposing the equipment to direct sun light, low ventilation or heat source such as heater or radiator is forbidden (ignorance can cause fire danger).
- Do not aim the device at the sun or extra bright places. A blooming or smear may occur otherwise (which is not a malfunction however), and affecting the endurance of sensor at the same time.
- Please use the provided glove when open up the device cover, avoid direct contact with the device cover, because the acidic sweat of the fingers may erode the surface coating of the device cover.

Chapter 4 Wiring
The device supports connecting to the RS-485 terminal, the door lock, the exit button, the alarm output/input devices, the Wiegand card reader, the access controller, and the power supply. You can wire the peripherals according to the descriptions below.
If connect the Wiegand card reader with the access controller, the face recognition terminal can transmit the authentication information to the access controller and the access controller can judge whether to open the door or not.

Note
- If the cable size is 18 AWG, you should use a 12 V switched-mode power supply. And the distance between the power supply and the device should be no more than 20 m.
- If the cable size is 15 AWG, you should use a 12 V switched-mode power supply. And the distance between the power supply and the device should be no more than 30 m.
- If the cable size is 12 AWG, you should use a 12 V switched-mode power supply. And the distance between the power supply and the device should be no more than 40 m.
