Configuring E-Mail Alerts
When using motion detection, you may want to be advised by e-mail when
movement is detected. Configure your e-mail settings first and then configure
scheduling an event. See “Scheduling an Event” on page 91 and “Configuring
Motion Detection Area and Sensitivity” on page 92.
To configure e-mail alerts, follow these steps:
STEP 1 Click Setup in the toolbar.
STEP 2 Click Applications > Mail. The Applications > Mail window displays.
STEP 3 In Primary SMTP, configure the following:
• Check the check box Primary SMTP to upload to the primary SMTP.
• SMTP Mail Server—Enter the address of the Simple Mail Transport
Protocol (SMTP) server to be used to send e-mail.
• Port—Enter the port number of the mail server. The default is 25.
• Authentication—From the drop-down list, choose one of the following
options:
- Not Required—Authentication is not required to send mail.
- Requires SMTP Authentication—Select if the SMTP server requires a
login to send mail.
- Requires POP before SMTP—Select if the SMTP server requires a
POP login to send mail.
• Account Name—Enter the account name to be used on the e-mail server.
• Password—Enter the password associated with the account name.
• POP Server Name—Enter the name of the POP3 mail server that is being
used to receive e-mail.
• Test SMTP Ser ver—Click to test the configuration. You will get an error
message if the transaction does not complete, for example, test fails due to
a wrong username or password.

supports cryptographic protocols that provide security and data integrity
for communications over TCP/IP networks such as the Internet.
