Email notification

Requirements

A mail server is required, that

• supports SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) without prior user authentication
• is reachable by the “Type 8620 mxCONTROL” from the Intranet

For transmission of emails outside the local network (e.g. to the Internet):

• Local network safety mechanism allows transmission of emails to the outside
• The SMTP mail server in the Intranet has to be configured to allow email messages at least for

these certain external addresses and to forward them to the outside.

Functionality

An email transmission is caused by a trigger event.

There are 3 kinds of email types which differ in the transmission trigger events - refer to the following
table for details.

Each email contains additional information on the device and the trigger event (for examples refer to
“Email examples”). Emails are created in English only.

The emails are always transmitted to all configured recipients (max. 2 recipients possible).

The priority and the subject of emails 1 - 3 are user configurable.

The transmission of not required email types can be deactivated by setting the corresponding Trigger
parameter to Off.

Emails will only be transmitted, if there is no remote device access via Ethernet
(with the PC-Tool).
