4.2.6 Email Tab
The Email tab of the configuration allows the user to configure the optional e-mail capabilities of the workstation.
Email notifications are only intended to be transmitted to a limited number of staff for maintenance and system status
purposes. This feature is approved by UL as supplementary.
The Email tab provides the capability to send system information via the local email server to an email account. This
configuration uses monitoring profiles and output formats to determine the information that is sent. The email server
should be configured before an email account is added.
The following parameters govern the workstation email functions:
• The email server may be either on-site or provided by an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
• The email functions support SMTP format only.
• Individual ISP authentication (username/password) is not supported.
Email settings are described in
