a.
Enter the SMTP server’s URL or IP address. This can be up to 48 characters long. Set the port value to the
correct setting for outgoing mail. The default port setting is 25. If your mail server uses a different port, your
Internet service provider or network administrator can provide you with the correct port setting.
b.
Some Internet Service Providers will block email if it is not sent from a valid email account. Enter a valid
email address in the “FROM” email address block. This is the address that will appear in the “from” field of
the email.
c.
Some Internet Service Providers may require a username or password to log onto the email server. If
required, enter the username and password in the corresponding fields. If your Internet Service Provider does
not require this log on information, leave the fields blank.
The email authentication fields are supported only
by M1XEPs with firmware version 1.2.0 or later.
d.
The lower portion of this screen is where the email addresses and messages for email notification are
entered. Up to 16 addresses and messages can be stored. Email addresses can be up to 48 characters
long. The message body may be up to 255 characters long. To enter an email address, simply click on the
line where you want to enter the address and type the address. Then click on the message block next to
the address and enter the message that you want to be sent to that address. These messages are
activated using the Whenever/And/Then rules programming in
