Milestone XProtect Basis+ 6.5; Administrator’s Manual
Check Box Description
Create
default
schedule for
new
cameras
If selected (default), a schedule specifying that the camera is always online
(i.e. transferring video to XProtect Basis+) will automatically be created in the
Camera/Alert Scheduler window (see page 64). The automatically created
schedule can be edited manually at any time.
If not selected, no schedule will automatically be created; meaning that the
camera will not automatically be transferring video to XProtect Basis+. When
required, schedules can be added manually in the Camera/Alert Scheduler
window (see page 64).
Email Settings
Clicking the Email Settings... button opens the E-Mail setup window (see page 70), in which you
enable and configure the use of e-mail alerts.
Change Password Window
The Change Password window lets you change the administrator password for your XProtect Basis+
solution. To access the Change Password window, click the Change Password... button in the
General Settings window (see page 68).
How to Change the Administrator Password
1. Specify the current administrator password in the Old password field
2. Specify the new administrator password in the New password field
3. Repeat the new administrator password in the New password (confirm) field
4. Click OK.
E-Mail Setup Window
The E-Mail setup window lets you enable and configure the use
of e-mail alerts. Such e-mail alerts can automatically be sent to
one or more recipients when motion is detected or specific
events (see About Input, Events & Output ... on page 73) occur.
By default, SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is used when
sending e-mail alerts. Compared with other mail transfer
methods, SMTP has the advantage that you will avoid
automatically triggered warnings from your e-mail client when
an e-mail alert is to be sent. Such automatically triggered
warnings may otherwise inform you that your e-mail client is
trying to automatically send e-mail messages on your behalf.
To access the E-Mail setup window, click the Email Settings...
button in the General Settings window (see page 68).
