4 Maintenance
4.1 Notes on Using the Barrier
●
Avoid bumping during use. If bumping occurs, do the following:
◇
Check whether the slewing mechanism is damaged. If so, replace it in time.
◇
Check whether the barrier arm is bent. If so, replace it in time.
◇
Check whether there is any abnormal sound during operation. If so, contact after-sales
service.
●
We recommend you use standard arms of the Barrier to ensure a long service life.
●
Damages caused by improper operations and non-quality faults are not covered by the warranty.
4.2 Regular Maintenance
Maintain the Barrier every three months.
●
Whether the rubber buffer is normal.
●
Whether the mechanical transmission is smooth.
●
Whether there is abnormal noise during motor operation.
●
Whether the wiring is loose and the ground is reliable.
●
Whether the casing is loose.
4.3 Maintenance Methods
4.3.1 Replacing the Rubber Buffer
The rubber buffer might be worn after long-term use, and should be replaced in time to ensure
smooth operation of the Barrier and the motor. Follow the steps below to replace the buffer:
●
Cut off the power to the Barrier.
●
Open the door, and lower the panel.
●
Remove the top cover.
●
Remove the worn rubber buffer, replace it with a good one, and fix the new buffer.
●
Do not increase or decrease the gasket when replacing the rubber buffer.
●
After replacing the rubber buffer and fixing the top cover, manually lift and lower the arm several
times to make sure that the mechanical movement is flexible and smooth, then you can power
on and operate the Barrier.
4.3.2 Maintaining the Drive Unit
●
Check whether the fastening bolts of the drive unit are loose, and whether the bearing works
User's Manual
16
normally when the Barrier opens or closes.
●
Check whether the transmission part is loose and therefore affecting the running of the Barrier.
●
Check whether there is any abnormal noise during the operation of the motor. If so, contact
after-sales service.
4.3.3 Maintaining the Angle Sensor
The angle sensor is connected to the main shaft to detect the real-time position and speed of the
barrier arm when it is running. Check the angle sensor when the Barrier jitters obviously.
Step 1 Cut off power supply to the Barrier, and remove the three leads of the angle sensor
(labeled 4, 5, 6).
Step 2 Use a multimeter (20 KΩ resistance), and connect the red and black test leads to 4, 5
respectively.
Step 3 Manually make the barrier arm move slowly from the opening status to the closed status.
Step 4 The resistance reading should change between 5 KΩ ± 2% and 7.4 KΩ ± 2%, and the
reading becomes smaller when the arm is raised and larger when the arm falls. In the
changing process of resistance, there is no jumping phenomenon. If anything is abnormal,
adjust the angle sensor to make the resistance fall within the specified range.
4.3.4 Adjusting the Balance Spring
When changing the barrier arm, you need to adjust the balance spring to fit the new barrier arm.
When the barrier arm is at an angle of about 5° from the horizontal line, release the barrier arm, and
the arm will slowly rise to the vertical position.
●
The balance spring is adjusted according to the model of the Barrier. Do not change the model or
length of the arm without professional instructions.
●
The length of the balance spring might differ depending on the model.

Appendix 1 Cybersecurity Recommendations
Cybersecurity is more than just a buzzword: it’s something that pertains to every device that is
connected to the internet. IP video surveillance is not immune to cyber risks, but taking basic steps
toward protecting and strengthening networks and networked appliances will make them less
susceptible to attacks. Below are some tips and recommendations from Dahua on how to create a
more secured security system.
Mandatory actions to be taken for basic equipment network security:
1.
Use Strong Passwords
Please refer to the following suggestions to set passwords:
●
The length should not be less than 8 characters.
●
Include at least two types of characters; character types include upper and lower case letters,
numbers and symbols.
●
Do not contain the account name or the account name in reverse order.
●
Do not use continuous characters, such as 123, abc, etc.
●
Do not use overlapped characters, such as 111, aaa, etc.
2.
Update Firmware and Client Software in Time
●
According to the standard procedure in Tech-industry, we recommend to keep your
equipment (such as NVR, DVR, IP camera, etc.) firmware up-to-date to ensure the system is
equipped with the latest security patches and fixes. When the equipment is connected to the
public network, it is recommended to enable the“auto-check for updates” function to obtain
timely information of firmware updates released by the manufacturer.
●
We suggest that you download and use the latest version of client software.
"Nice to have" recommendations to improve your equipment network security:
1.
Physical Protection
We suggest that you perform physical protection to equipment, especially storage devices. For
example, place the equipment in a special computer room and cabinet, and implement
well-done access control permission and key management to prevent unauthorized personnel
from carrying out physical contacts such as damaging hardware, unauthorized connection of
removable equipment (such as USB flash disk, serial port), etc.
2.
Change Passwords Regularly
We suggest that you change passwords regularly to reduce the risk of being guessed or cracked.
3.
Set and Update Passwords Reset Information Timely
The equipment supports password reset function. Please set up related information for password
reset in time, including the end user’s mailbox and password protection questions. If the
information changes, please modify it in time. When setting password protection questions, it is
suggested not to use those that can be easily guessed.
4.
Enable Account Lock
The account lock feature is enabled by default, and we recommend you to keep it on to
guarantee the account security. If an attacker attempts to log in with the wrong password several
times, the corresponding account and the source IP address will be locked.
5.
Change Default HTTP and Other Service Ports
We suggest you to change default HTTP and other service ports into any set of numbers between

1024–65535, reducing the risk of outsiders being able to guess which ports you are using.
6.
Enable HTTPS
We suggest you to enable HTTPS, so that you visit Web service through a secure communication
channel.
7.
MAC Address Binding
We recommend you to bind the IP and MAC address of the gateway to the equipment, thus
reducing the risk of ARP spoofing.
8.
Assign Accounts and Privileges Reasonably
According to business and management requirements, reasonably add users and assign a
minimum set of permissions to them.
9.
Disable Unnecessary Services and Choose Secure Modes
If not needed, it is recommended to turn off some services such as SNMP, SMTP, UPnP, etc., to
reduce risks.
If necessary, it is highly recommended that you use safe modes, including but not limited to the
following services:
●
SNMP: Choose SNMP v3, and set up strong encryption passwords and authentication
passwords.
●
SMTP: Choose TLS to access mailbox server.
●
FTP: Choose SFTP, and set up strong passwords.
●
AP hotspot: Choose WPA2-PSK encryption mode, and set up strong passwords.
10.
Audio and Video Encrypted Transmission
If your audio and video data contents are very important or sensitive, we recommend that you
use encrypted transmission function, to reduce the risk of audio and video data being stolen
during transmission.
Reminder: encrypted transmission will cause some loss in transmission efficiency.
11.
Secure Auditing
●
Check online users: we suggest that you check online users regularly to see if the device is
logged in without authorization.
●
Check equipment log: By viewing the logs, you can know the IP addresses that were used to
log in to your devices and their key operations.
12.
Network Log
Due to the limited storage capacity of the equipment, the stored log is limited. If you need to
save the log for a long time, it is recommended that you enable the network log function to
ensure that the critical logs are synchronized to the network log server for tracing.
13.
Construct a Safe Network Environment
In order to better ensure the safety of equipment and reduce potential cyber risks, we
recommend:
●
Disable the port mapping function of the router to avoid direct access to the intranet devices
from external network.
●
The network should be partitioned and isolated according to the actual network needs. If
there are no communication requirements between two sub networks, it is suggested to use
VLAN, network GAP and other technologies to partition the network, so as to achieve the
network isolation effect.
●
Establish the 802.1x access authentication system to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to
private networks.
