3.5.2 Email Notification Setup
Email notification requires the following fields are properly set. See
Section 2
for a description of each
field.
Network Tab:
━
IP Address
━
Subnet Mask
━
Gateway
━
Preferred DNS Server (this is required if Mail Server is entered by name and not by IP address)
━
Mail Server (SMTP)
━
User Name (If Required)
━
Password (If Required)
━
Return Email
━
Email 1 (additional Email addresses may be entered)
Once the settings under the
Network
tab are entered correctly, an email trigger(s) must be configured.
An email trigger can be generated within a BASIC script (See
Appendix G
for information about BASIC
scripts), or can be explicitly defined for each outlet, input, and sensor (under
Outlets, Inputs,
and
Sensors
tabs). For each outlet, input, and sensor trigger, the “Email Option' field should be set to the
appropriate trigger. Finally, the appropriate email addresses should be selected for each outlet, input,
and sensor trigger by checking the box next to the desired email address under the
Outlets, Inputs,
and
Sensors
tabs.
Once the email settings are entered, the email functionality can be tested by entering the following
command:
http://192.168.1.2/state.xml?testEmail=1
This will cause an email message to be sent immediately. If the message doesn't get through, the
system log file may have some clues to assist in diagnosing the problem
