Information about Update Interval
Raritan environmental sensors can be divided into two categories
according to the update interval of the sensor's reading or state.

Normal type: Sensor readings or states are updated in a longer
interval, which varies between 3 to 40 seconds according to the total
number of connected environmental sensors. Most Raritan
environmental sensors belong to this type, such as the temperature
or humidity sensor.

High priority type: Sensor readings or states are updated in a shorter
interval, which is less than or equal to 3 seconds. Raritan contact
closure sensors belong to this type.
Configuring SMTP Settings
The EMX can be configured to send alerts or event messages to a
specific administrator by email. To do this, you have to configure the
SMTP settings and enter an IP address for your SMTP server and a
sender's email address.
If any email messages fail to be sent successfully, the failure event and
reason are available in the event log. See
Viewing the Local Event Log
(on page 232).
Note: See Event Rules and Actions (on page 187) for information on
creating event rules to send email notifications.
To set SMTP server settings:
1. Choose Device Settings > SMTP Server. The SMTP Server Settings
dialog appears.
2. Type the name or IP address of the mail server in the Server Name
field.
3. Type the port number for the SMTP server in the Port field. The
default is 25.
4. Type an email address for the sender in the Sender Email Address
field.
5. Type the number of email retries in the "Number of Sending Retries"
field. The default is 2 retries.
6. Type the time interval between email retries in the "Time Interval
Between Sending Retries (in minutes)" field. The time is measured in
minutes. The default is 2 minutes.
