Setting a timer recording using email

You can remotely set a timer recording using email.

Preparation
• Connect the recorder to the internet, and turn on the power of each equipment.
• Set the “Mail Setting” under “Network Setting”.
• Change the mail software setting to text format. (Timer recording setting by email is not compatible with email in

HTML format.)

• A trial run of timer recording setting by email is recommended to test its operation before an actual run.

Notes
• Depending on the software for sending timer recording

setting email, a part of the first line may go to a new line if
it is long. If this occurs, timer recording setting content will
not be read correctly.

• If there is an excessively large number of email messages

on the mail server, the timer recording setting email may
not be received.

• When the recorder does not have an always-on internet

connection, timer recording setting using email cannot be
done.

• In some cases, a timer recording might not be possible

depending on the start time of the timer recording and the
recorder’s operating mode.

• An email account compatible with POP3 or APOP is

required as a destination of timer recording setting email.
You cannot use an account such as a cell phone email
address in which you cannot send or receive email from
your home PC.

• If you receive email using a PC which is set to

automatically delete email from the mail server, the
recorder may not receive the timer recording setting email.

• Only one timer recording setting can be done per email.
• If an email message begins with the same format as the

timer recording setting email, it may be regarded as a timer
recording setting email and may be received by the
recorder instead of the PC.

• If the email timer recording keyword is entered incorrectly,

you will not be able to set a timer recording. In addition, if a
symbol is part of the email timer recording keyword, it will
cause an error. Therefore, you will not be able to set a
timer recording.

No.
