4.4 More about Emailing Access:
4.4.1 Sending Control command to the system:
There are two tasks the system executes using the Emailing access method. The first task is to
send control commands such as controlling the power outlet. The second task is to send data to the
user serial ports. Control commands are placed in the email subject field, while user data to a user
serial port is placed in the email body.
A control command in the subject field has the following format:
&SysName&userName&password &Command&
where
“SystemName”
is a user defined system or device name;
“username”and “password”
are
valid user account name and password; and
“command”
is the actual system control command.
For example, an email subject “&mySite3&johnW&123456&sset 2&” will select user console
port 2 as the active port. The system is defined as“mySite3”. The user name is “johnW” and
password is “123456. Figure 10 shows an example of sending a control command email from
Microsoft Hotmail to a POP email recipient
.
