Entertainment Robot will notify you of new e-mail

If a new e-mail arrives at the e-mail address that the AIBO
robot checks, its wireless light will flash blue and notify you
of this arrival. (Your PC does not need to be activated for this
notification feature to work.) This notification is only for
regular e-mail and not for AIBO MAIL arrivals.

The AIBO robot will
periodically check for
e-mail at the intervals
you selected in the “E-
mail check interval” in
the “Mail Setup”
screen (page 26)
section for e-mail
setup. When you tell
the AIBO robot
“Check e-mail”, the
AIBO robot will announce the results and let you know by
sound.

Note

You can confirm the AIBO robot’s e-mail server connection by
observing its wireless light:

When the e-mail check is successfully completed, the wireless
light will turn blue.

When e-mail check is successfully completed and there is new
e-mail, the wireless light will flash blue.

When attempts to connect to the e-mail server fail, the wireless
light will turn OFF.

Having the AIBO robot forward pictures taken
in House Sitting mode

In House Sitting mode, the AIBO robot takes a picture and
notifies you by e-mail when it detects movements, faces, and
sounds. The AIBO robot attaches the pictures it takes to the
e-mail notification, but recorded sounds cannot be attached
and sent.
To have the AIBO robot attach and forward by e-mail the
pictures it takes in House Sitting mode, turn the e-mail
forwarding function “ON” in the Settings for House Sitting
mode on the AIBO robot, and specify a destination e-mail
address under “Sending pictures by Voice Command and in
House Sitting Mode” on the “Mail Setup” screen (page 26).
For details on the AIBO robot’s House Sitting mode, refer to
the “User’s Guide (Basic)” for the AIBO robot ERS-7M3.

Caution

If an object in front of the AIBO robot is continuously moving or
making sounds, the AIBO robot will repeatedly send you pictures
of it, resulting in an extremely large volume of e-mail arriving in
your inbox. Because phone charges may become a burden in this
situation, please be careful when specifying a mobile phone e-mail
address as the destination address.
