Overview

Configuring E-Mail

Sending an E-Mail Message

The ENI is capable of transmitting e-mail messages generated by the attached controller. This provides an extremely versatile mechanism to report alarms, status, and other data-related functions.

To send an e-mail message, the controller generates a write message, with a string element as the data, to a node number that correlates to the e-mail destination address. ENI e-mail behavior in a system is described by the following diagram.
