Frequently asked questions
Does the terminal work without a separate controller?
Yes. This is a standalone terminal: it opens the door itself and keeps track of the users itself, so you do not need a separate access controller. If you want to manage several doors centrally, you connect it to DSS Pro.
Can I use this to keep track of staff working hours?
For basic registration, yes: the terminal records every login with the time and the person, and this data can be exported. Full time and attendance tracking with a separate clock-in/clock-out status or hours report is not built into the device itself; for that you use separate time registration software based on this data. Call or email us if you want to know whether it suits your setup.
Is this an indoor or an outdoor terminal?
This is a compact indoor terminal, intended for indoor use (operating temperature -10 to +40 degrees). For a door that is exposed to the weather, choose one of the IP65 versions in this series.
Do I need PoE?
No. This version runs on 12 volts. If you want power and data over a network cable, choose a PoE version from this series.
Can I view remotely and open the door?
Yes, via Dahua's free DMSS app. For several terminals you use DSS Pro or SmartPSS Lite. The link to the app can be found under the Downloads tab.
Which cable do I need?
Network cable of at least category 5e, installed as fixed wiring. For outdoor use or underground, choose a cable made for that purpose. Not sure? Call or email us.
