11. Connection to other devices
11.6 E-mail function
11.6 E-mail function
Only possible with easySoft 7.
The e-mail function can be used to have the easyE4 control relay send a message to up
to three different recipient groups.
Precondition:
In order for the e-mail function to work, there must be an Ethernet connection
between the easyE4 control relay and an external server.
This server must either provide the mail server itself or the connection to the mail
server that will be used.
The e-mail message will be triggered:
l
If an error occurs in the NET group (all devices located on the same network as the
easyE4)
l
The controller's operating state changes
or
l
The program is deleted
In addition, e-mails can be sent to recipients if an alarm function block has been con-
figured in the relevant program.
Since the easyE4 control relay cannot send any messages itself, the e-mail function is
the ideal way to ensure that the defined people will promptly receive a notification when
required.
These notifications will be triggered automatically if there is an active connection
between the easyE4 and a mail server and the latter has been configured accordingly.
In addition, the e-mail functionality comes with the advantage of traceability. This trace-
ability can be viewed much the same way as data logging.
The following will be saved:
l
When an error occurred
l
When the operating state changed
l
When programs were deleted
