Why do I need to create an email for my DVR?
So your DVR can send you email alerts and to
send you a password reset request if you have
forgotten your password. The following email
providers are supported - Gmail gmail.com
and Outlook outlook.com. On your comput-
er or mobile device, create an email account
then input those details here.
→ Click "Default" to revert to default settings.
→ Click "Apply" to save settings.
Interval:
This is the length of time that must elapse after your DVR sends an
email alert before it will send another. Adjust accordingly.
Test Email:
Click to verify the information is correct then click "OK". A mes-
sage will appear if the test has been successful. Click "OK" to continue.
If the test email is not in your inbox, check your junk or spam folder.
Email not working? Please try the following:
1.
Check that your email user name and password are correct.
