Features and Functions
Note
Before e-mails can be sent from the CP 243-1 IT, you must make sure that a func-
tioning e-mail server can be accessed from there.
General accessibility of an e-mail server can be tested with the HTML page
"sendmail.htm," among others, which is included with the CP 243-1 IT (see chapter
2.3.6).
Configuration
Configuration of the e-mails and the address parameters of the e-mail server is
performed with the Internet wizard of STEP 7 Micro/WIN 32. The configuration data
entered here are stored permanently in a file with the ending .edb in the file system
of the CP 243.1 IT. Transmission of these data from the system on which the con-
figuration was prepared with STEP 7 Micro/WIN 32 to the CP 243-1 IT is handled
via FTP.
Up to 32 e-mails can be configured. Each e-mail text may consist of up to 1024
characters.
The structure of each e-mail is shown below.
− E-mail number
This number can be used to reference a configured e-mail by the S7-200
user program.
− Receiver address
The e-mail address of the receiver. This address must always be specified.
− Additional receiver address
The address of a recipient who is to receive a copy of the e-mail. This ad-
dress does not have to be specified.
− Subject
A short description of the e-mail. The subject must always be specified.
− E-mail text including placeholders and formatting characters. The actual in-
formation to be transferred is located here.
Each address field may only contain one receiver address. When an e-mail is to be
sent to several recipients, a distribution list must be set up on the e-mail server and
this list must be specified as the e-mail receiver.
In addition to the control characters for the placeholders of data values, the follow-
ing format characters are supported in the e-mail text.
