SSL (Secure Sockets Layer): A form of security encryption often employed on the
Internet. Contact your email provider to learn if they support or require SSL to be
enabled. Ifyou’reusingGmail,setthistoENABLE.
SMTP Port: The port your email server receives data through. For the vast maority of
email servers, you’ll need to use port 25 - however, some exceptions to this rule exist.
Again, contact your email provider if you’re unsure. ForGmailuseport465.
SMTP Server: The outgoing email server you’re using. Remember that many email
servers aren’t compatible with the automatically generated emails that the DVR cre-
ates. ForGmail,usesmtp.gmail.com
Sender: The address the email will be sent “from”. Often, you’ll need to use youruser-
name@yourserverto verify it’s you (or, rather, your electronic representitive) sending
the email. ForGmailusers,thiswillbeyour_username@gmail.com

count, enter it here. Gmailusers,thiswillbethesamepasswordyouusetoaccessthe
gmailaccount.
Receiver: The email address you want the automatic emails to go to. We suggest cre-
ating a seperate email account for this, as there may be many email alerts, depending
on how much motion occurs around your DVR and how long your Interval setting is.
Interval: How often the DVR will send auto-email alerts for subsequent events. Basi-
cally, the DVR will not send another email after an event until this time has elapsed,
and will then do so once another event occurs thereafter.
TEST: Sends an email immediately, so you can check that your settings are working.
If you don’t receive an email, it might be that your Receiver email address has a spam
lter - check the Junkmail folder, the automatically generated emails often wind up
in there.
