About email
With email notifications, you can instantly get notified when your surveillance system requires
attention. Your system can automatically send e-mail notifications to one or more recipients when:

Motion is detected

Events occur. You can select individually for each event whether you want to receive an email
notification or not.

Archiving fails (if email notification has been selected as part of the archiving properties)
Configure email notifications
To set up email notifications, do the following:
1. Expand Advanced Configuration, expand Notifications, right-click Email and select
Properties.
2. Enable the use of email by selecting the Enable email check box.
3. Specify required properties (see "Message Settings (email)" on page 144).
4. Choose a schedule profile to associate with your email notifications. Your system comes with
two simple schedule profiles, Always on and Always off, which you cannot edit or delete. If
these do not meet your needs, you can create any number of customized schedule profiles for
each camera. You can reuse a customized schedule profile for more than one purpose if you
want to.
