Basic Configuration

5.9.11. Email Message Parameters
The Email Parameters menu is used to define parameters for email messages that
the MPC can send to notify you when an alarm is triggered. To define email message
parameters, access the MPC Command Mode using a password that permits access to
Administrator Level commands and then proceed as follows:

Text Interface: Type

/N and press [Enter] to access the Network Configuration

Menu. From the Network Configuration Menu, type

32 and press [Enter] to display

the Email Configuration Menu.

Web Browser Interface: Place the cursor over the "Network Configuration" link on

the left hand side of the screen. When the fly-out menu appears, click on the "Email
Messages" link to display the Email Configuration Menu.

The Email Configuration menu offers the following options:

Enable: Enables/Disables the Email Messaging feature. When disabled, the MPC

will not be able to send email messages when an alarm is generated.
(Default = On.)

SMTP Server: This prompt is used to define the address of your SMTP Email

server. (Default = undefined.)

Port Number: Selects the TCP/IP port number that will be used for email

connections. (Default = 25.)

Domain: The domain name for your email server. (Default = undefined.)

Note: In order to use domain names, you must first define Domain Name
Server parameters as described in Section 5.9.5.

User Name: The User Name that will be entered when logging into your email

server. (Default = undefined.)

Password: The password that will be used when logging into your email server.

(Default = undefined.)

Auth Type: The Authentication type; the MPC allows you to select None, Plain,

Login, or CRAM-MD5 Authentication. (Default = Plain.)

From Name: The name that will appear in the "From" field in email sent by the

MPC. (Default = undefined.)

From Address: The email address that will appear in the "From" field in email sent

by the MPC. (Default = undefined.)

To Address: The address(es) that will receive email messages generated by the

MPC. Note that up to three "To" addresses may be defined, and that when Alarm
Configuration parameters are selected as described in Section 7, you may then
designate one, two or all three of these addresses as recipients for email messages
that are generated by the alarms. (Default = undefined.)

Send Test Email: Sends a test email, using the parameters that are currently

defined for the Email configuration menu.

Note: The "Send Test Email" function is only available via the Text Interface.
