Auto Email Setup Menu

Auto Email Setup Menu

You can configure the DVR to automatically send you email alerts when it detects an alarm event.

Please note that this function is not compatible with all email servers - as the email the DVR sends is procedurally generated, many email servers misidentify it as spam. We recommend setting up a free webmail account with a compatible email provider, such as Gmail, which is compatible with the DVR’s auto-email system.

Tips and Tricks:

•We strongly suggest testing the email setup once it is configured. This simply involves clicking the test button, located in the lower left corner of the menu.

•Some email servers may incorrectly interpret the automatically generated emails as spam. If you’re not receiving the emails properly, check your “spam” or “junk” folder, or the filtering settings your email provider uses.

Remember: After making changes to the settings press/click the APPLY button.
