7.10.4 E-Mail
The recorder can be configured to send e-mails to a maximum of 6 recipients in response to certain events.
The addressees can all subscribe to the same SMTP server or the recorder can be configured to send
e-mails via 2 different SMTP servers to a maximum of 3 addressees per server.
Up to 10 independently configurable triggers can be enabled to generate an e-mail when the selected
source becomes active.
When a trigger source becomes active, an internal 1 minute delay timer is started. At the end of that
minute, an e-mail is generated that includes, not only the event that initiated the delay timer, but every other
event that occurred during the delay period together with any enabled reports. The data returned in the
e-mail therefore reflects the real-time alarm state at the time the e-mail was generated, not the state when
the first trigger source became active.
Each e-mail includes a link to the recorder's embedded web server enabling the recorder's data and status
to be viewed remotely using an internet browser on a PC.
SMTP Authentication
SMTP messages are sent without authentication, meaning they are sent without a name and password to
identify the originator of the email. This may cause an email server to reject a recorder's request to send an
email.
To prevent this, allocate a fixed IP address to the recorder and ensure this IP address is explicitly allowed as
valid in the configuration of the email server (and any intervening firewalls).
Note.
This Section is applicable only if the optional Ethernet module is fitted.
Enter the IP address of the SMTP server through which e-mails are to be
routed.
Enter the address(es) of the e-mail recipient(s).
