Set Email

When the email is configured and Send Email is enabled as a linkage method, the device sends an email notification to all designated receivers if an alarm event is detected.

Before You Start

Set the DNS server before using the Email function. Go to Configuration → Network → Basic

Settings → TCP/IP for DNS settings.

Steps

1. Go to email settings page: Configuration → Network → Advanced Settings → Email.

2. Set email parameters.

1) Input the sender's email information, including the Sender's Address, SMTP Server, and

SMTP Port.

2) Optional: If your email server requires authentication, check Authentication and input your user name and password to log in to the server.

3) Set the E-mail Encryption.

● When you select SSL or TLS, and disable STARTTLS, emails are sent after encrypted by SSL

or TLS. The SMTP port should be set as 465.

● When you select SSL or TLS and Enable STARTTLS, emails are sent after encrypted by

STARTTLS, and the SMTP port should be set as 25.

If you want to use STARTTLS, make sure that the protocol is supported by your email server. If you check the Enable STARTTLS while the protocol is not supported by your email sever, your email is sent with no encryption.
