against lightning. For outdoor scenarios, strictly comply with the lightning protection
regulations.
●
Ground the function earthing portion of the device to improve its reliability (certain models
are not equipped with earthing holes). The device is a class I electrical appliance. Make sure that
the power supply of the device is connected to a power socket with protective earthing.
●
The dome cover is an optical component. Do not directly touch or wipe the surface of the cover
during installation.
Operation Requirements
●
The cover must not be opened while the device is powered on.
●
Do not touch the heat dissipation component of the device to avoid the risk of getting burnt.
●
Use the device under allowed humidity and temperature conditions.
●
Do not aim the device at strong light sources (such as lamplight, and sunlight) when focusing it,
to avoid reducing the lifespan of the CMOS sensor, and causing overbrightness and flickering.
●
When using a laser beam device, avoid exposing the device surface to laser beam radiation.
●
Prevent liquid from flowing into the device to avoid damage to its internal components.
●
Protect indoor devices from rain and dampness to avoid electric shocks and fires breaking out.
●
Do not block the ventilation opening near the device to avoid heat accumulation.
●
Protect the line cord and wires from being walked on or squeezed particularly at plugs, power
sockets, and the point where they exit from the device.
●
Do not directly touch the photosensitive CMOS. Use an air blower to clean the dust or dirt on the
lens.
●
The dome cover is an optical component. Do not directly touch or wipe the surface of the cover
when using it.
●
There might be a risk of electrostatic discharge on the dome cover. Power off the device when
installing the cover after the camera finishes adjustment. Do not directly touch the cover and
make sure the cover is not exposed to other equipment or human bodies
●
Strengthen the protection of the network, device data and personal information. All necessary
safety measures to ensure the network security of the device must be taken, such as using strong
passwords, regularly changing your password, updating firmware to the latest version, and
isolating computer networks. For the IPC firmware of some previous versions, the ONVIF
password will not be automatically synchronized after the main password of the system has been
changed. You need to update the firmware or change the password manually.
Maintenance Requirements
●
Strictly follow the instructions to disassemble the device. Non-professionals dismantling the
device can result in it leaking water or producing poor quality images. For a device that is
required to be disassembled before use, make sure the seal ring is flat and in the seal groove
when putting the cover back on. When you find condensed water forming on the lens or the
desiccant becomes green after you disassembled the device, contact after-sales service to
replace the desiccant. Desiccants might not be provided depending on the actual model.
Operation Manual
V
●
Use the accessories suggested by the manufacturer. Installation and maintenance must be
performed by qualified professionals.
●
Do not directly touch the photosensitive CMOS. Use an air blower to clean the dust or dirt on the
lens. When it is necessary to clean the device, slightly wet a soft cloth with alcohol, and gently
wipe away the dirt.
●
Clean the device body with a soft dry cloth. If there are any stubborn stains, clean them away
with a soft cloth dipped in a neutral detergent, and then wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile
solvents such as ethyl alcohol, benzene, diluent, or abrasive detergents on the device to avoid
damaging the coating and degrading the performance of the device.
●
The dome cover is an optical component. When it is contaminated with dust, grease, or
fingerprints, use degreasing cotton moistened with a little ether or a clean soft cloth dipped in
water to gently wipe it clean. An air gun is useful for blowing dust away.
●
It is normal for a camera made of stainless steel to develop rust on its surface after being used in
a strong corrosive environment (such as the seaside, and chemical plants). Use an abrasive soft
cloth moistened with a little acid solution (vinegar is recommended) to gently wipe it away.
Afterwards, wipe it dry.

Appendix 1 Cybersecurity Recommendations
Security Statement
●
If you connect the product to the Internet, you need to bear the risks, including but not limited to
the possibility of network attacks, hacker attacks, virus infections, etc., please strengthen the
protection of the network, platform data and personal information, and take the necessary
measures to ensure the cyber security of platform, including but not limited to use complex
passwords, regularly change passwords, and timely update platform products to the latest
version, etc. Dahua does not assume any responsibility for the product abnormality, information
leakage and other problems caused by this, but will provide product-related security
maintenance.
●
Where applicable laws are not expressly prohibited, for any profit, income, sales loss, data loss
caused by the use or inability to use this product or service, or the cost, property damage,
personal injury, service interruption, business information loss of purchasing alternative goods or
services, or any special, direct, indirect, incidental, economic, covering, punitive, special or
ancillary damage, regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort, negligence, or other) , Dahua
and its employees, licensors or affiliates are not liable for compensation, even if they have been

●
Dahua's total liability for all your damages (except for the case of personal injury or death due to
the company's negligence, subject to applicable laws and regulations) shall not exceed the price

Security Recommendations
The necessary measures to ensure the basic cyber security of the platform:
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.
Customize the Answer to the Security Question
The security question setting should ensure the difference of answers, choose different questions
and customize different answers (all questions are prohibited from being set to the same answer)
to reduce the risk of security question being guessed or cracked.
Recommendation measures to enhance platform cyber security:
1.
Enable Account Binding IP/MAC
It is recommended to enable the account binding IP/MAC mechanism, and configure the IP/MAC
of the terminal where the commonly used client is located as an allowlist to further improve
access security.
Operation Manual
205
2.
Change Passwords Regularly
We suggest that you change passwords regularly to reduce the risk of being guessed or cracked.
3.
Turn On Account Lock Mechanism
The account lock function is enabled by default at the factory, and it is recommended to keep it
on to protect the security of your account. After the attacker has failed multiple password
attempts, the corresponding account and source IP will be locked.
4.
Reasonable Allocation of Accounts and Permissions
According to business and management needs, reasonably add new users, and reasonably
allocate a minimum set of permissions for them.
5.
Close Non-essential Services and Restrict the Open Form of Essential Services
If not needed, it is recommended to turn off NetBIOS (port 137, 138, 139), SMB (port 445), remote
desktop (port 3389) and other services under Windows, and Telnet (port 23) and SSH (port 22)
under Linux. At the same time, close the database port to the outside or only open to a specific IP
address, such as MySQL (port 3306), to reduce the risks faced by the platform.
6.
Patch the Operating System/Third Party Components
It is recommended to regularly detect security vulnerabilities in the operating system and third-
party components, and apply official patches in time.
7.
Security Audit
●
Check online users: It is recommended to check online users irregularly to identify whether
there are illegal users logging in.
●
View the platform log: By viewing the log, you can get the IP information of the attempt to
log in to the platform and the key operation information of the logged-in user.
8.
The Establishment of a secure Network Environment
In order to better protect the security of the platform and reduce cyber security risks, it is
recommended that:
●
Follow the principle of minimization, restrict the ports that the platform maps externally by
firewalls or routers, and only map ports that are necessary for services.
●
Based on actual network requirements, separate networks: if there is no communication
requirement between the two subnets, it is recommended to use VLAN, gatekeeper, etc. to
divide the network to achieve the effect of network isolation.
