Sender’s Email 

The Sender’s Email is typically the SMTP user name as a full email address and is the unique email address 
assigned to the logger. A valid email address must be entered if email is enabled. This email address will appear 
in the “From” field of emails from the logger.  

Sender’s Name 

The Sender’s Name is typically a descriptive name assigned to the logger. It may contain a site number and/or 
geographic location. It will also appear in the “From” field of emails from the logger. 

Recipient’s Email 

The Recipient’s Email address is the email address to which the logger will send data files. 

Recipient’s Name 

The Recipient’s Name is the name of the person to whom the logger will email data files. 

CC Email 

The CC Email address is another email address to which the logger will send data files. This field can be left 
blank. 

CC Email 2 

The CC Email 2 address is another email address to which the logger will send data files. This field can be left 
blank. 

Subject Line 

The Subject Line is the subject line of the email that you receive from the logger and may contain letters, 
numbers and other symbols. It should be descriptive of the email contents, such as “Windy Hills Site 12345 
SymphoniePRO Data”. 

Email Now 

The Email Now button initiates a connection to the internet (if not already connected) and prompts the logger 
to email any unsent data files. This button is disabled if an iPack isn’t connected.  

Note - If there are many unsent data files, it will consume battery power to send them all. 

Test Email Settings 

The Test Email Settings button attempts a connection to the designated SMTP server, using the settings 
entered, to confirm that a connection can be made, but it does not send a data file. 

3.4 iPack  

 

To program an iPackGPS or iPackACCESS, the iPack must be attached to a SymphoniePRO that is connected to a 
PC running SymphoniePRO Desktop Application.
