Tamper Alarm
The tamper alarm function prevents anyone from removing the devices without permission. It does this by setting off the tamper alarm and making calls to a designated location when the device detects a change in its gravity value from the original one.
Set it up on the web System > Security > Tamper Alarm interface.
You can also set up the tamper alarm on the Setting > Security > Tamper Proof screen.
Disarm Setting
When the tamper alarm is triggered, you can enter the disarm code to clear the alarm.
Set it up on the System > Security > Disarm Setting interface.
Lock Security
The door phone can work with other door locks and sensors to keep the lock secure. It will sound the alarm to alert users if the door sensor finds the door open or not fully closed.
On the device, go to Setting > Security > Lock for the setting.
Lock Type: Select Positive for the lock that unlocks when the power is on and select Negative for the lock that unlocks when the power is off.
Lock Delay: Select door unlock delay time after you are granted door access. The delay time range is from 0-10 seconds.
Magnetism Type: Select OFF if you want to disable the door sensor and alarm. To set the alarm trigger type, you must select ON-ALARM and OFF_ALARM according to the type of lock you applied. Select ON_ALARM for a positive lock, while selecting OFF_ALARM alarm for a negative lock.
Magnetism Delay: Select the alarm delay time after it is triggered. The delay range is from 10-120 seconds.
Motion Detection
Motion Detection is a feature that allows unattended video surveillance and automatic alarms. It detects any changes in the image captured by the camera, such as someone walking by or the lens being moved, and activates the system to perform the appropriate action.
Set it up on the web Surveillance > Motion > Motion Detection Options interface.
Suspicious Moving Object Detection:
Disabled: Turn off the motion detection function.
Video Detection: When the video camera detects moving objects, preset actions will be triggered. Focus on analyzing visual information captured through cameras.
Radar Detection: When the radar detects moving objects, preset actions will be triggered. It offers longer-range and better detection in poor visibility conditions.
Video + Radar: Detect motion with the combination of video camera and radar.
Timing Interval: The absolute triggering interval is 3 seconds. If you select a number greater than 3 seconds, then it requires a second triggering interval to trigger the alarm. For example, if you select 3 seconds, then the alarm will be triggered when a moving object is detected one time from 0 to 3 seconds (triggered any time from 0 to 3 seconds). However, for example, if you select 5 seconds (greater than 3), then the alarm will not be triggered until a moving object is detected for the second time from 3 to 5 seconds (triggered any time from 3 to 5 seconds). The default interval is 10 seconds.
Detection Range: After enabling radar detection, you can select the detection range among 1, 2, and 3 meters.
Detection Accuracy: The detection sensitivity. Specify this option when selecting Video Detection. The greater the value is, the more accurate the detection is. The default value is 3.
Detection Area: Click and hold down the mouse button to select up to three detection areas.
You can also set up motion detection on the Setting > Advanced Setting > Surveillance > Motion screen.
Motion Detection Triggered Actions
You can set up the actions triggered by the motion detection on the Surveillance > Motion > Motion Action interface.

Set up action URLs on the web Setting > Action URL interface.
Note
Action URLs and formats are provided by third-party manufacturers. Akuvox door phone only sends the URL to third-party devices.
Type: Select the request type between GET and POST.
Authorization Mode: Select the authorization mode. If Digest is selected, you need to set up the username and password.
Voice Encryption
Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP) is a protocol derived from the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP). It enhances the security of data transmission by providing encryption, message authentication, integrity assurance, and replay protection.
Set it up on the web Account > Advanced > Encryption interface.
Voice Encryption(SRTP): Choose Disabled, Optional, or Compulsory for SRTP. If Optional or Compulsory is selected, the voice during the call is encrypted, and you can grab the RTP packet to view it.
User Agent
User agent is used for identification purpose when you are analyzing the SIP data packet.
Set it up on the Account > Advanced > User Agent interface.
Web Interface Automatic Log-out
You can set up the web interface's automatic log-out timing, requiring re-login by entering the user name and the passwords for security purposes or for the convenience of operation.
Set it up on the web System > Security > Session Time Out interface.
Virtual PIN
The virtual PIN allows you to protect your PIN code from being leaked to someone.
To enable the virtual PIN feature, navigate to Access Control > PIN Setting > Virtual PIN interface.
Parameter Set-up:
Enabled: If enabled, you are allowed to put fake numbers on both sides of the PIN code for PIN code protection. For example, if your password is 1234567 you can put 99 and 88 on both sides (99123456788). The virtual password is matched to the users by the number of matched digits. For example, if user A has a greater number of digits that are matched with the virtual password entered than user B, then it will be regarded as user A’s password. However, when the double authentication is applied, then the virtual password will be matched with the users who pass the first level of authentication, for example, Face + PIN.
Note
This feature is not used for Public PIN and Apartment+PIN.
Client Certificate Setting
Certificates ensure communication integrity and privacy. To use the SSL protocol, you need to upload the right certificates for verification.
Web Server Certificate
It is a certificate sent to the client for authentication when the client requests an SSL connection with the Akuvox door phone. Please upload the certificates in accepted formats.
Upload a web server certificate on the web System > Certificate > Web Server Certificate interface.
Client Certificate
This certificate verifies the server to the Akuvox door phone when they want to connect using SSL. The door phone verifies the server's certificate against its client certificate list.
Upload and configure client certificates on the web System > Certificate > Client Certificate interface.
Index: Select the desired value from the drop-down list of Index. If you select Auto, the uploaded certificate will be displayed in numeric order. If you select the value from 1 to 10, the uploaded certificate will be displayed according to the number.
Client Certificate Upload: Locate and upload the desired certificate (Format: .pem,.der,.cer,.crt).
