Scream! 4.5

11.2 E-mail notification

You can also instruct Scream! to send e-mail to warn the operator
when particular events happen. To set this up, choose File Setup…

from the main menu and move to the Email Options tab.

To be able to use e-mail, you will need access to a mail (SMTP) server

which will accept messages from the address
Scream_SMTP_client@your-hostname. Fill in the IP address or
hostname of this server in the SMTP Server box. Enter in the
Recipient box the e-mail address to which you want the mail sent.

The events you can monitor are:

Digitiser re-boots : Scream! can recognise the boot-up status messages
of a Güralp digitiser or digital instrument. These are normal after a

power cycle, or when a new configuration is uploaded to the digitiser.
After a re-boot, you should receive Re-Sync and Data Discontinuity

messages as well.

Re-Syncs : Whenever the digitiser's internal clock is resynchronized

with GPS. These are normal after a re-boot, or an extended period of
GPS outage.

Data Discontinuities : Any detected gap in a stream, along with the
reason, if known. This includes reboots, clock syncs, and intentional

gaps in triggered channels, as well as data lost owing to slow or
poor-quality communications links. You should check the log files

(see above) to help you determine the cause.
