If you want the NVR to send
email alerts as alarm events
are detected, then you need
to configure an outgoing
email server for the NVR and
choose an email address for
it .
We recommend creating an
account with Gmail
specifically for the NVR.
These instructions assume
you’re using a GMail
account.
Enable SSL or TLS
: Enable.
SMTP Port:
The SMTP port of your email server. Gmail’s is 465
(this value will self-populate)
SMTP Server:
The SMTP address of your email server. There are 3 preset options to select from:
smtp.gmail.com, smtp.live.com or smtp.mail.yahoo. com
Sender Address:
The email address you want your NVR to send alerts from. For example,
your_email
@gmail.com
Sender Password:
The password of your sending email address.
Recipient Address :
Enter an email address for the NVR to send alerts to (usually your personal email
address).
Attach Picture:
When selected, the NVR will attach a still image to better illustrate what has caused the
alarm/alert state.
Interval:
The minimum amount of time that must elapse after the NVR sends an email alert before it can
be triggered again.
Test:
To check if you’ve set up email alerts properly, click the Test button. If your connection and email
details are ok, you will see a message on the NVR screen confirming the email was sent successfully. After
a short delay, you will also receive an e-mail in your inbox (
Recipient’s Address
) informing you that email
alerts from the NVR has been set up. If the test is unsuccessful, please check your sender’s address/
password and recipient’s address and try again.
UID:
This is the NVR’s
U
nique
ID
entifier number. We will use this UID to configure the Reolink app &
software and connect to your NVR. You can click the
Send UID
button to receive an email containing the
UID (that’s assuming your email details are configured) or alternatively just make a note of the UID on a
piece of paper or save it to a text file using NotePad application on your computer.
Send UID:
When you’ve finished testing your email, click the
Send UID
button to send the NVR UID to
your email address (
Recipient’s Address
) so you can use it for access from ReoLink on your PC etc.
