Other mail servers have their own unique settings and requirements. Some
web mail services such as Yahoo can typically not be used for sending unless
you subscribe to optional paid subscriptions like Yahoo PLUS. Any email
account can be used as a receiving email address, including the same as the
sending email. You can also have more than 1 receiving email address, up to 3
total. NOTE: It is easy to have a typo. The SMTP server name never has an @
symbol. On the other hand, email addresses must have the @ symbol.
VERY IMPORTANT: For the gmail account used with the camera, the
password must not be longer than 22 characters and must not have any
spaces, punctuation, or foreign characters.
Upper case and lower case are
distinct and must be entered correctly in the camera. To make sure no extra
space is added, it’s best to type the password rather than cutting and pasting.
For large pictures you’d keep the factory default setting of “Snapshot from”
“Primary Stream”. For smaller pictures you can select the “Secondary Stream”.
For “Image file name” we recommend keeping the default (“PA” for “picture
on alarm”). The rest of the generated file name can include time & date or a
number. Do not add any file name extension, as .JPG is added automatically.
The “Alarm Interval time” allows you to designate a time (in seconds) during
which new emails are suppressed. To avoid a flood of emails and risk having
your email account blocked for suspected spamming, this is pre-set to 1800
seconds to prevent additional emails for at least half an hour. If you need very
frequent motion detection notifications, you may want to consider using FTP
or Dropbox uploads instead of email.
When you are done with choosing settings for the email alarm sending task,
you would click on “Apply” to save the settings, then click on “Back” to get
back to the “Task Management“ menu.
Now if you want motion detection emails to start, check the “Enable”
checkbox for the “Email alarm sending” task, and click on “Apply“ in this
Task Management screen.
With the task enabled, you should be getting your
first email shortly after you walk in front of the camera. Then you will not be
getting additional emails until the “alarm interval time” elapses (half an hour).
