Domain Name field

The Domain Name field displays the domain name that the MTPX Plus switcher uses to log
on to the e-mail server. Standard domain name conventions (for example: xxx.com) apply.

NOTE: The

HTML language reserves certain characters for specific functions (see

Special Characters

“ in the “Programming Guide” section). The @ character is

acceptable only as the lead-in to the domain name (such as @folklore.net).

Email Address fields

The eight

Email Address

fields identify the e-mail addresses of the personnel to whom

the MTPX Plus switcher e-mails notification of its failure and repair status. Standard e-mail
address conventions (nnnnn@xxx.com) apply.
The

Fans

check boxes and drop boxes associated with each address field permit the

operator to specify specific criteria under which the switcher will e-mail recipients. Check
the

Fans

boxes to monitor the cooling. In the associated

EMail Options

drop box, select

whether the recipient is to be e-mailed of failures, fixes, both, not notified, or to be removed
from the e-mail list. The

Suspend

option is useful for temporarily removing personnel from

the e-mail list when they are unavailable, such as on travel or vacation. Deleting an e-mail
addressee and clicking the

Save

button removes the recipient from e-mail notification

completely.
