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

Email: Choose whether you want the email function enabled or disabled here.

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer): A form of security encryption often employed on the

Internet. Contact your email provider to learn if they support or require SSL to be

enabled. Ifyou’reusingGmail,setthistoENABLE.

SMTP Port: The port your email server receives data through. For the vast maority of

email servers, you’ll need to use port 25 - however, some exceptions to this rule exist.

Again, contact your email provider if you’re unsure. ForGmailuseport465.

SMTP Server: The outgoing email server you’re using. Remember that many email

servers aren’t compatible with the automatically generated emails that the DVR cre-

ates. ForGmail,usesmtp.gmail.com

Sender: The address the email will be sent “from”. Often, you’ll need to use youruser-

name@yourserverto verify it’s you (or, rather, your electronic representitive) sending

the email. ForGmailusers,thiswillbe[email protected]om

Password: If your email provider requires a password to send mail from your ac-

count, enter it here. Gmailusers,thiswillbethesamepasswordyouusetoaccessthe

gmailaccount.

Receiver: The email address you want the automatic emails to go to. We suggest cre-

ating a seperate email account for this, as there may be many email alerts, depending

on how much motion occurs around your DVR and how long your Interval setting is.

Interval: How often the DVR will send auto-email alerts for subsequent events. Basi-

cally, the DVR will not send another email after an event until this time has elapsed,

and will then do so once another event occurs thereafter.

TEST: Sends an email immediately, so you can check that your settings are working.

If you don’t receive an email, it might be that your Receiver email address has a spam

lter - check the Junkmail folder, the automatically generated emails often wind up

in there.
