Setting The System Notification; Using The Rs-232C Interface - Christie Inspire Series User Manual

Setting the system notification

Configure the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) settings for receiving notifications
from the system directly to the email. SNMP provides network administrators with a common way
to manage their network devices from a single remote location. Administrators can use the SNMP
interface to query a number of devices to see their current status or configuration. Operators can
change configuration values and configure trap notifications to be sent when certain events occur
(for example, loss of signal, power state change, and so on).
Emails are sent to the mail server configured in the projector settings. Up to two user email
accounts can be selected. Important information regarding the event is located in the body content
of the email.
SNMP traps are notifications sent from the projector. They are only received by a trap receiver (MIB
Browser) in the computer.
1. From the web user interface, select Network > Notification.
See Using the web interface
2. Set up the appropriate SNMP setting:
• SNMP Read Community—Plain text password that must also be entered in the MIB
browser. This password allows various settings in the projector to be queried.
• SNMP Location—Use as a description to where a projector is located in a building. SNMP
emails sent specify this location.
• Trap IP Address—Fill in this field with the IP address of the computer, on which you
want to view received traps from the projector.
• Sender Email—Set the email account as the source of the system notifications.
• SMTP Server—Enter the IP address of the mail server.
• Recipient—Enter up to two email accounts to receive the system notification.
3. Set the SNMP actions for the system events:
• Disabled—Disable email notification
• SNMP Trap—Send the notification to the trap receiver (MIB Browser).
• Email—Send the notification to the email recipient.
• SNMP Trap and Email—Send the notification to the trap receiver and the email
recipient.
4. To apply the notification settings, select Save.

To control the projector through the RS-232C interface, do the following:
1. Connect your computer and the projector directly using the RS-232 cable.
2. Set the same baud rate in both your computer and projector.
Use commands to control the projector.
