To enable the mode, go to System > Security > 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.
