What are Email Notifications?

An email notification is an email message that corresponds to an Access Event (such as
when a member of the group "Janitors" enters the "Main Office"), an Exception Event (such
as when the "Front Door" is ajar for three minutes), a Device Event (such as when a motion
sensor engages), or a Control Panel Event (such as when the control panel loses AC power).
Email notifications are sent to specific people under specific circumstances according to a
set of notification rules that state those who should be notified about what events.
Notifications are formatted in plain text. The time that the notification displays when it is
sent corresponds with the time zone configured for the appliance. For more information on
configuring control panels, see
In order to use the Email Notification function in IPAC Server™, you must first configure
your SMTP Server. See the section on Configuring the SMTP Server for more information.
