Entering e-mail addresses for alerts
If you have created scheduled events or monitoring tasks on the PCS4, you can write an
e-mail alert with a message corresponding to that event or task (for example, a change in
power level for one of the attached devices). The e-mail alert can notify up to 48 recipients
at one time; the Email Alerts screen lets you enter up to 48 e-mail addresses.

NOTE: Due to the seven-character limit for full file names, it is recommended that

Numeric titles reduce the characters in the file name and assist in keeping
the alert files organized. However, alphabetic titles are permitted.
