EM
. This module does not require
an APN username or password.
•
If you are using a third-party SIM card, the APN, APN Username, and Password must be provided by the
cellular service provider.
8.7.4 Set the Email and Messaging Parameters
From the
Settings
>
Notifications
screen, enter the SMTP definition, login, and password for a mail server.
Important:
Only the DXM100 and DXM150 models offer SMS/text messaging capabilities.
To send email, you must supply the SMTP Server, Server Port, and login credentials. When you are only sending SMS
messages over cellular, the SMTP Server is not required.
The default SMTP port is 25 but may need to be adjusted for Ethernet-based networks. Note that many facilities block port
25. Port 587 is another common SMTP submission port.
The SMTP password is not stored in the XML configuration file, but on the DXM. After the password is entered, click on
Send
SMTP Password
to send it to the DXM. The password is stored in non-volatile memory, so reboot the DXM to recognize the
new password.
When using a GMail server, select
Situational encryption
and
Enable SMTP authentication
. The GMail server will not
allow you to send email alerts using the cellular interface. GMail may notify you that you must allow access for less secure
apps in your email settings.
For other email servers, the parameters may vary and will require information from the provider.
