6. How do I activate the E-mail Function?
a) Camera Network Configuration
DNS Server Address
A DNS server is required if you enter the SMTP server using the domain name. If you enter the
IP address of the SMTP server you do not need to specify DNS server information, but if you
enter the domain name of your mail server (e.g., mail.myserver.com or smtp.myserver.com) you
need to type in at least one DNS server.
SMTP Server (max. 25 characters)
Type in the address (IP address or domain name) of the outgoing mail server. This is typically
the same mail server you have set up in your mail client settings (e.g., the MS Outlook profile).
Sender e-mail address (max. 30 characters)
This should not be left blank as many SMTP servers refuse to deliver e-mail if the sender
address is missing. The sender address can be any e-mail address. It does not need to be a
real, existing, e-mail address. You can type in [email protected] or
[email protected].
Use SMTP Authentication
Most SMTP servers are password protected to prevent illegal access (anti-spam). If your SMTP
server requires authentication, enter the username and password required for this server. Those
are the same values you normally use for the Email Client (Outlook, Thunderbird) on your PC.
Authentication method
The authentication method should be set to LOGIN in most cases. Unless your server
specifically requires different settings, LOGIN is the preferred choice. Other options are PLAIN
and DIGEST-MD5.
If your server is an Open Relay, you do not need to activate SMTP authentication.
b) Camera Event Trigger Configuration
Activate the e-mail option and specify the e-mail address and the subject of the e-mail.
