ALARM NOTIFICATION BY E-MAIL

The e-mail feature lets you send an e-mail message to a recipient on any alarm event. This could
be used to signal an alarm to people who cannot be reached with a video-based notification.
To activate this feature, enable at least one of the alarm inputs, configure a receiver e-mail
address, and activate the Send Email button. Remember to configure a mail server and gateway IP
addresses on the General Settings configuration page.
Now the system will send an e-mail to the specified recipient on every alarm event. There will be a
timeout of at least 30 seconds before the same alarm event generates another e-mail message.
The e-mail will contain the status of the four alarm inputs so you can see which event triggered the
e-mail.
