Below is an explanation of fields on the SMTP (Email) settings screen:
SMTP Server: SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. This field allows the user to enter the SMTP server
used by the email service.
Authentication: This dropdown box allows the user to select an encryption type. There are two types of email
encryption protocols that are available:
SSL: Secure Socket Layer
TLS: Transport Layer Security
Connection: This field allows the user to enter the port that corresponds to the selected SMTP server.
Login Anonymously: This checkbox allows the user to anonymously login to the server.
Username: This field allows the user to enter the SMTP username.
Password: This field allows the user to enter the password associated with the SMTP username.
Sender: This field allows the user to enter the sender email address. This email address will be the one that sends
out all emails pertaining to the alerts and alarm emails sent by the camera.
Title: This field allows the user to define the subject line of the email that is sent to the receivers.
Attachment: This checkbox allows a snapshot of the event to be attached to the email notification.

entered in this field.
Keep Alive: This checkbox allows the user to enable a function to periodically check in with the SMTP server to
ensure it can connect correctly.
Update Period: This field allows the user to define, in minutes, how long the system should wait between sending
emails. This prevents multiple emails from being sent out.

Prior to the email test, please save the email setup information.
