E-MAIL ALERT

The system can notify you when it detects motion from any camera by
sending you an email alert. The email alert contains information such
as the time that motion was detected and by which camera. In order
to enable the Email Alert function, you must enter both incoming and
outgoing email addresses.
We strongly recommend you use Gmail to set up as the outgoing
email server.
The outgoing mail server (SMTP server) is responsible for sending out
the email notification to tell users when the system detects motion
from any camera (Motion Detection must be activated).
The incoming mail server (Email To) receives the email notification
sent from the SMTP server. The user must be able to receive email
on a Windows PC or on mobile devices (such as an iPhone, iPad, or
Android smartphone or tablet) to receive e-mail alerts from the system.
When you receive an email alert, you can view live video from your
Windows PC, an iPhone, iPad, Android smartphone or Andriod tablet
through apps. Apps are available through the iTunes App store or the
Android Market.

4. Enter your PASSWORD. Note: The password entered here must be the same password as the password for the
outgoing email account.

Email account.

using Gmail as the outgoing
SMTP server, check SSL and
