4.3.19 EMAILS (Cont.)
CONFIGURABLE PARAMETERS
This subsection contains details of the parameters that appear in the E-mail confi guration page (fi gure
4.3.19a above). Figure 4.3.19b (below) may also be referred-to for further explanation.
Mail Server
Enter the name (note 1) of the mail server or IP address here. This is the destination
to which e-mails are sent, for subsequent delivery.
Port Number
This is the port number used for SMTP by the servers. Most servers use port 25 for
this function, and this value should be changed from the default only by experienced
personnel.
Sender
For DNS operation, this is a combination of the Local Host and Domain entries set up
in the ‘Network/Name’ area of confi guration described in section 4.5 .
If Fixed I.P. Address is selected, the I.P. Address appears instead.
The unit accesses the ‘Sender’ information automatically, and it cannot be edited
here. The ‘Sender’ is placed in the ‘From:’ part of the e-mail header.
Errors To
An e-mail address to which any error messages can be sent for display etc. The
instrument itself cannot receive e-mails and so is unable to display (for example ‘un-
deliverable’) messages itself. An entry in this fi eld must be made. The same address
may be used for any number of instruments.
Retry time
The product tries repeatedly (until successful) to dispatch the e-mail until the ‘Retry
time’ has expired. If the e-mail has not been sent within this period, it is deleted, and
a ‘General’ message is generated.
Recipient List
Allows a list to be chosen for entry of recipient e-mail addresses
Descriptor
Allows a name to be entered for the selected list.
Rcpt1 to Rcpt10
These fi elds allow 10 recipients’ e-mail addresses to be entered for the selected list.
The fi rst valid address appears in the ‘To:’ part of the e-mail header; subsequent valid
addresses appear in the ‘Cc:’ part of the e-mail header (note 2).
Email Number
Allows an e-mail to be selected for confi guration.
Descriptor
Allows a descriptor to be entered for the e-mail. This appears in the list of e-mails
when setting up a job, and also in the message log.
Protocol
Choose one of ‘SMPT (Email)’, ‘SMS (Subject Only)’ and ‘SMS (Body Only)’. ‘Opera-
tion’ (below) gives some details of the application of the SMS protocol in this instru-
ment.
SMPT (Email).
Selecting this protocol allows both a Subject and Body text to be entered.
SMS (Subject Only).
Selecting this protocol allows a subject to be entered, but the entry fi eld for
the body text is not presented for use. Any text previously entered here, whilst
another protocol was selected, is lost.
SMS (Body Only)
Selecting this protocol allows Body text to be entered, but the Subject fi eld is
not displayed. Any text previously entered as a Subject, whilst another protocol
was selected, is lost.
Subject
Allows the entry of up to 100 characters to appear in the ‘Subject:’ part of the e-mail
header. The fi eld does not appear if ‘SMS Body Only’ is selected as the Protocol.
Text
Allows the entry of up to 240 characters to appear as the body of the e-mail. The
fi eld does not appear if ‘SMS Subject Only’ is selected as the Protocol. Also referred
to as ‘Body Text’.
Include message
If this checkbox in enabled, one of the messages in the ‘Message Confi guration’ area
can be selected to appear below the body text in the e-mail.
Notes:
1. Domain Name Service (DNS) must be enabled in the recorder network confi guration (
section
4.5.2
) if a mail server name is to be used.
2. A ‘general’ message is generated if there are any invalid recipients in any list (who would not
receive e-mails). Such messages may be viewed in ‘Message Log’ (
section 3.1.4
).
