Advanced Conguration

Network: Advanced: Email Settings

We suggest using Gmail as your email client - it’s quite easy

to set up an account and use it solely for the DVR. We’ve

tested the email procedure with Gmail, and it does work.

Other email servers may not work correctly - many

interpret the procedurally generated email from the DVR

as spam and block the mail from being sent.

For the Auto-Mail function to work correctly, the DVR will need

to be correctly congured with the details of the email servers

and addresses you want to use.

Enable SSL or TLS: Whether the email server you’re using

requires a secure link. This is on by default, and should be left

on if you’re using any of the preset email servers.

SMTP Server: There are three preset options to choose from,

Gmail (smtp.gmail.com), Windows Live Mail (smtp.live.com)

and Yahoo Mail (smtp.mail.yahoo.com).

You’ll need to setup an account with one of these email

providers. All oer free email accounts. To signup, visit the

email provider’s website:

Gmail (Google): smtp.gmail.com

Yahoo Mail:

smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Windows Live Mail (Hotmail):

smtp.live.com

The DVR will automatically adjust some settings (such as the

SMTP port number) to make conguration signicantly easier.

Other (check-box): This is for user who want to use a dierent

email server, typically the outgoing email server of their ISP.

If you want to use your ISP’s outgoing email, then you’ll need

to contact your ISP to learn the correct values for the other

elds (such as the correct SMTP server, SMTP port, SSL or TSL

requirements and so on).

SMTP Port: The SMTP port used by the email provider of your

choice. This eld will automatically self-populate if you use

one of the presets.

Sender Address: The address you’re sending the email from.

This will be the username you’ve set up for the email server

you’re using, followed by “@” and then the email server. For

example: “[email protected]om” or similar.

Sender Password: The password for the outgoing email

account.

Recipient Address: The email address you want the DVR to

send emails to. This can be any email address you like, however,

bear in mind that the DVR might send a large number of

automatic emails under certain conditions.

Attach Picture: When this is selected, the DVR will attach a

small image to each email alert (where applicable).

For motion-based email alerts, this will be an image of

whatever triggered the motion detection.

Interval: The length of time that must elapse after the DVR

sends an email alert before it will send another.

Short Interval settings are likely to lead to huge numbers of

alerts being sent by the DVR - perhaps even several emails

for one event (if that one event lasts longer than the interval

setting). On the other hand, a long interval setting might

mean you’ll miss a specic update that you needed. There’s no

right answer, and you’ll probably have to ne-tune this setting

to get the results you’re after - it’ll be dierent for everyone’s

unique circumstances.

If you want the DVR to occasionally drop

you a line, share news, tell you about its

day and - more importantly - tell you

what’s going on around your home or

business as it happens, then you can

congure it to automatically send email

alerts as events happen.
