Setting up SMTP authorization
If desired, set the FOX Matrix Switcher to require SMTP authorization before accepting any
e-mail as follows:
1. Click Edit. The button changes to Save.
2. Check the SMTP Authorization Required check box, located below the Domain Name
field. This enables the User Name and Password fields below the check box.
3. Enter a user name and a password in the User Name and Password fields. For the
FOX Matrix Switcher to accept their e-mail messages, senders must enter the user
name and password.
NOTES:
• For the User name, any combination of letters, numerals, spaces, and symbols
except the comma (,) and the single and double quotation marks (' and ”) are
valid. For the password, all characters except the comma are valid. The user
name and password can each be from 1 to 30 characters.
• Both a user name and a password must be specified.
4. Click Save to save the user name and password.

Email Address fields
The five Email Address fields identify the e-mail addresses of the personnel to whom the
FOX matrix switcher e-mails notification of its failure and repair status. Standard e-mail
address conventions ([e-mail]) apply.
The check boxes and drop boxes associated with each address field permit you to specify
specific criteria under which the switcher will e-mail recipients.
• In the associated Missing Input drop boxes, select the inputs to monitor for presence
or absence of a signal.
• Check the Fans and Power boxes to monitor the fans and power supplies.
• In the associated Email Options drop box, select whether the recipient is to be
e-mailed of failures, fixes, both, not notified, or to be removed from the e-mail list. The
Suspend option is useful for temporarily removing personnel from the e-mail list when
they are unavailable, such as when travelling or on vacation.
• Deleting an e-mail addressee and clicking the Submit button removes the recipient from
e-mail notification completely.
