CHAPTER 6  ADV

ANCED FEA

TURES

The system can send an email notification with a JPEG snapshot for triggered events on the 
system. Selecting Email Setup in the Alarm Setup menu will open the Email Setup menu. 
Your DVR will need to be connected to the Internet - either through a router or by being 
directly connected to a modem - in order to be able to send out email alerts.

This window will allow you to view system information - including the firmware version, MAC 
address, and serial number of the system.

For the example below, we will use Gmail. The settings can be found under 

Options when 

logged into your Gmail account. If you have a corporate mail server, you will need to consult 
with your IT department regarding proper settings. 

STEP 1. Select ON in the pull-down menu to the right of EMAIL.
STEP 2. SSL Leave SSL turned OFF. SSL deals with encryption. Only advanced users 

should enable this option.

STEP 3. SMTP PORT Enter the SMTP port of your email server. Gmail’s is 465.
STEP 4. SMTP Enter the SMTP address of your email server. For example, smtp.gmail.

com

STEP 5. SEND EMAIL The “from” address of your alerts.
STEP 6. SEND PW Enter the password of your sending email account
STEP 7. RECV EMAIL Enter the destination email address for your notifications.
STEP 8. Click APPLY and then click CLOSE in the confirmation window.
STEP 9. Click EXIT in all menus until all windows are closed.

NOTE! Depending upon your settings, the system can generate a lot of e-mail 
alerts. For that reason, we recommend setting up a dedicated e-mail address 
specifically for the system to send alert notices. If you do not have your own 
e-mail system (such as a corporate mail server) you should consider using a 
free e-mail provider. However, because many free e-mail services allow only a 

limited amount of e-mail traffic we specifically recommend using Google’s Gmail service with 
its higher limit. Similarly, you will want the alert e-mails to go to a different account than the 
one sending them. This will ease your management of these alerts.

Check this window to determine whether 
you need to update to a newer version of the 
firmware. Updating the firmware is covered in 
Section 6.4 System.

This was covered in Section 5.4 Motion Detection.

This will be covered in Chapter 4 of the Remote Monitoring Guide included on this CD.

Use the System menu to update system firmware and set an automatic system reset 
schedule.

Like most conventional computers, the DVR 
can benefit from being occasionally shut 
down and re-started. This clears the memory 
and improves performance.

STEP 1. Select On in the AUTO RESET 

pull-down menu. The 

Settings option 

will appear below.

STEP 2. In the SETTINGS pull-down 

menu, select 

EVERY DAY, EVERY 

WEEK, or EVERY MONTH. If you 
choose 

EVERY MONTH, the date 

drop-down menu will appear.

STEP 3. Select the date for auto-reset 

from the drop-down menu.

STEP 4. Enter the time for auto-reset 

using the Virtual Keyboard.

STEP 5. Click APPLY, then click CLOSE 

in the confirmation window.
