except the comma (,) and the single and double quotation marks (‘ and “) can be
used. For the password, all characters except the comma can be used. The user
name and password can each be from 1 to 30 characters.

Domain Name field
The Domain Name field displays the domain name that the MTPX Plus switcher
uses to log on to the e-mail server. Standard domain name conventions (for
example: xxx .com) apply.
N
The following characters are invalid in a domain name:
{space} + ~ , = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : | \ and ?. The @ character is
acceptable only as the lead-in to the domain name (such as @folklore.net).
Email address fields
The eight Email address fields identify the e-mail addresses of the personnel to
whom the MTPX Plus switcher e-mails notification of its failure and repair status.
Standard e-mail address conventions ( nnnnn @ xxx .com) apply.
The Fans check boxes and drop boxes associated with each address field permit the
operator to specify specific criteria under which the switcher will e-mail recipients.
Check the Fans boxes to monitor the cooling. In the associated EMail Options
drop box, select whether the recipient is to be e-mailed of failures, fixes, both, not
notified, or to be removed from the e-mail list. The
Suspend
option is useful for
temporarily removing personnel from the e-mail list when they are unavailable,
such as on travel or vacation. Deleting an e-mail addressee and clicking the
Save
button removes the recipient from e-mail notification completely.
