UFS8000 E-mail 78
16. E-mail
Attention ! This chapter only applies to control unit type UFS8x1x-xxxx.
Attention ! A server without authentication (and without SSL) should be used.
The controller can be used to send e-mails
with (alarm) warning.
The options will be explained in this chapter
as well as how the controller has to be set.
The e-mail menu is located in the main
menu.
The configuration can be set via the
“Properties” option.
The situation in which an e-mail is sent can
be set via the “Log” option.
16.1. Configuration
To send e-mails a number of parameters have to be set in the controller.
In this window the following items have to be set:
- Switch on / off e-mail function
- E-mail address of the recipient
- IP address of SMTP-server
16.1.1. Switch on / off e-mail function
The e-mail function can be switched on and off in the window
via the “Activate” option.
If the option is “checked” the function is switched on and the
various programmable settings are accessible.
16.1.2. IP address of SMTP server
To send an e-mail the IP address of an internet provider's SMTP-server is required
for the local internet connection. This should be a server without authentication (and without SSL).
Generally speaking, only the domain name of the SMTP-
server is known. This can be found in your “e-mail account”,
for example (such as “Outlook”), the address specified in the
SMTP-server.
http://www.whatsmyip.org/whois/ , for example, allows you to
search for the related IP address of the
SMTP server by entering the domain name.
16.1.3. E-mail sender
The controller will send an e-mail with a programmable sender name
An e-mail address with up to 55 characters may be entered.
