Setting the mail notification function

30

 

The mail notification function can be used to send corresponding notification messages to a preset e-mail address when a projector that is connected to the network assumes a certain status, or if it experiences a problem or warning. By using this function, the operator can be notified of a projector's status or problems even when the operator is in a different location from the projectors.

TIP

•Up to three addressees (destinations) can be registered and messages can be sent to all of them at once.

•If a critical problem develops with a projector which causes it to suddenly stop working, it may not be possible for the projector to send a message notifying an operator of the problem.

•If "Standby Mode" is set to "Network ON" or "Network Monitoring" is set to "ON" in the projector configuration menus, you can monitor the projector even when it is in standby mode (when its power is turned off). See your User’s Guide for more information.

•On some projectors, the mail notification function can be set in the configuration menu. When notification messages are set to be sent in the projector's configuration menu, both the settings in the configuration menu and settings made on EMP Monitor are functional.

•Detectable status with the mail notification function differs with the projector you are using.
