Send HTTP Enabled: Enable it if you want the action to be implemented on a designated third-party device.
Arming/Disarm Command: Enter the HTTP command provided by the third-party device manufacturer.
SIP Message
The device can send messages to a designated device when the alarm is triggered. To set this up, enter a SIP number or IP address along with the message content.

Receiver: The SIP number to receive the message.
SIP Message: The message sent to the designated SIP number when the alarm is triggered.
SIP Call

ZRTP(Optional): The protocol that the two parties use to negotiate the SRTP session key.
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 the certificate on the Security > Advanced > 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 the certificate on the Security > Advanced > Client Certificate interface.

Index:
Auto: The uploaded certificate will be displayed in numeric order.
1 to 10: The uploaded certificate will be displayed according to the value selected.
Only Accept Trusted Certificates: When enabled, as long as the authentication succeeds, the doorphone will verify the server certificate based on the client certificate list. If you select Disabled, the doorphone will not verify the server certificate, no matter whether the certificate is valid or not.
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.
To set it up, go to the web Security > Basic > Session Time Out interface.

Power Output Setting
The indoor monitor can serve as a power supply to the Akuvox door phone with 12V power supply for example E10. You can enable the power output, then connect the door phone to the RJ45 port on the indoor monitor. Also, you can connect E10 to the 12_out port for the power supply.
To enable it, go to Settings > Basic > Power Output Setting interface.

High Security Mode
High security mode is designed to enhance the security. It employs encryption across various facets, including the communication process, door opening commands, password storage methods, and more.
To set it up, go to the web Security > Basic > High Security Mode interface.

Important Notes
1. The High Security mode is off by default when you upgrade the device from a version without the mode to one with it. But if you reset the device to its factory settings, the mode is on by default.
2. This mode makes the old version tools incompatible. You need to upgrade them to the following versions or higher to use them.
PC Manager: 1.2.0.0
IP Scanner: 2.2.0.0
Upgrade Tool: 4.1.0.0
SDMC: 6.0.0.34
3. The supported HTTP format for relay triggering varies depending on whether high secure mode is enabled or disabled.
If the mode is on, the device only accepts the new HTTP formats below for door opening.
http://username:password@deviceIP/fcgi/OpenDoor?action=OpenDoor&DoorNum=1
http://deviceIP/fcgi/OpenDoor?action=OpenDoor&DoorNum=1
If the mode is off, the device can use both the new formats above and the old format below:
http://deviceIP/fcgi/do?action=OpenDoor&UserName=username&Password=password&DoorNum=1
4. It is not allowed to import/export configuration files in tgz. format between a device with the high security mode and another one without it. For assistance with file transfer, please contact Akuvox technical support.
