SRC-2X Installation and Operation Manual
QUICK START
Quick Start Application Example - 5
Email Notification via input triggering
This application is used with most of the above applications to send an email to two
different recipients when either or both of inputs change state (high to low transi-
tion). Enabling CP1 (input 1) will email either of the recipients. The same hold
true for CP2 (input 2).
1 – Information you’ll need to know The email setup information needed below is
best obtained from the IT department, but if that’s not possible, try this. Open
an email message and select View, then options on the selected email. The
Internet header information is displayed, which shows all the information about
the local mail server. Remember that with the current SRC-2X, the mail server
acts as a client. This means there has to be either a valid account that the email
is validated against or email forwarding is left enabled. In most mail servers this
feature is disabled to prevent being misused as a Spam server.
