9.8.3 Email Settings
The
“Settings” tab provides access to the email server configuration, which is how the MCTB is able to connect
and send email messages over its Ethernet connection. Each field may have up to 50 characters.
The
Login field is used to enter the login name required by the MCTB
to log in to your company’s mail server.
You can use your login if one is not set up specifically for the MCTB on your network. Contact your network
administrator for assistance.
The
Return Address is the address given for the MCTB
on your company’s mail server. The MCTB does not
accept email messages; however, this field is required for proper email delivery for security/anti-spam purposes.
If using your personal login name, you can also use your personal email address if one is not set up specifically
for the MCTB on your network. Contact your network administrator for assistance.
The
Password field is used for entering a password, if required by your network server, to send email. Contact
your system administrator for assistance.
This
SMTP Address field is for entering the address of the email server used for sending emails. This must be
a valid mail server for which the above settings allow MCTB access. Contact your system administrator for
assistance.
This
Subject field is used to enter a subject line for emails and/or SMS text messages. It can be used to provide
an identifier to the recipients of the alarm message to know which chamber it is coming from.
NOTE:
It is recommended to put some form of entry in this field. It can be left blank; however, many firewalls
and spam filters will filter out messages without subject lines. That may prevent recipients from
receiving the email. It can also be useful for identifying a particular unit on the factory floor.
The
Port field is used to set the port number that will be used on the device for email operations. For non-
secure connections (no SSL/TLS) port 25 is the default. If SSL/TLS is used, port 587 is usually the standard
port selected.
The
SSL/TLS button is used to enable or disable Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Security Layer
(TLS) functionality. These protocols are used to provide an authenticated connection between servers and
clients as well as encrypt information between the two. This provides a more secure environment for email
information with many public email services only allowing SSL/TLS connectivity.
NOTE: The MCTB (client) uses the explicit mode of securing the connection to the mail server. This typically
uses the same port as clear text (unsecured) which is usually port 25 or port 587. In this mode, the
