How to Conﬁgure Email Settings

The unit can automatically transmit and e-mail to an SMTP Server under numerous conditions,

including on start up of the unit, on receipt of an alarm, or camera failure.

This allows the unit to be installed in unmanned applications where a Remote Monitoring Station (or

Manager, etc) would be notiﬁed, by e-mail, if any of these conditions occur.

To conﬁgure the settings to allow e-mails to be transmitted:

1. Select Network -> Email.

2. The feature must be enabled to work. Click the ‘Enable Email’ checkbox to enable or

disable the feature.

3. Enter the connection proﬁle; this can be Ethernet if the e-mail is to be transmitted over the

LAN or WAN or named proﬁle if using a dial up connection.

4. Enter the IP address or the DNS name of the SMTP Server the e-mail will be sent to.

5. Enter the e-mail address that the SMTP server should forward the e-mail to.

6. If applicable enter the display name for the e-mail address.

7. Enter the e-mail address that the recipient is to reply to. This is only applicable if a reply is

required and MUST be ﬁlled in for this to happen.

8. If applicable enter the display name of the reply e-mail address.

9. It is possible to identify where the e-mail has be sent from. This is optional and if this is left

empty, the video server will use the system name & DNS name to create a sender name.

Note: The unit can not receive e-mail replies but this must be a valid e-mail address for an SMTP

Server.

10. The unit can be forced to send an e-mail under numerous conditions including start up of

the unit, on global alarm, camera failure, camera related alarms and activity. Place a tick

against the actions that are applicable to your systems functional requirements.

11. Save your conﬁguration by selecting Save Settings!
