2. Security:
Enter the authentication data for your email account under network provider.
–
"Sender" field: Enter the sender for the SMTP server under network provider.
–
"User name" field: Enter the user name of your email account under network provider.
–
"Password" field: Enter the password of your email account under network provider.
3. POP3:
You can log on for authentication using a POP3 logon before SMTP logon. This procedure
is called "SMTP-After-POP" or "POP-Before-SMTP".
With "SMTP-After-POP", the user first accesses its mailbox on the mail server via the POP3
protocol and thereby provides authentication with their user name and associated
password. A defined time window then remains for sending e-mail per SMTP. The
successful POP3 authentication, for example "pop.adresse.de", is used here for
authorization for sending per SMTP.

SMS options
The DiagMonitor Management Explorer allows you to have text messages sent automatically
in the event of an alarm, for example, to maintenance personnel.
Start the Management Explorer and select the menu command "Options > SMS..." or click on
the corresponding icon [SMS tool] in the toolbar.
The "SMS settings" dialog box appears.
To create a standard SMS to be sent automatically in the event of an alarm, proceed as
follows:

COM port to be used will only be displayed once you have installed the communication
software provided with your modem / cell phone. The modem / cell phone can also be
connected to a USB port.
3.
Enter the telephone number of the recipient who should be informed when a given alarm
occurs.
4.
Write the text to be transmitted. Use macros for the specific or variable parameters station,
date, time and reason for the alarm. You can find more information at:Using macros in
e-mail and SMS notification (Page 39)
5.
Click the "Test" button to perform a trial send attempt.
Once the configuration is successfully completed, a text message is sent to the cell phone if
an alarm occurs.
