Open the Email Profiles dialog to create and manage profiles for automatically sending images in emails.
You need to create at least one profile that you can select in the Time Tasks dialog or in the detail view of the Action Group Overview for sending images via email.
The MOBOTIX camera can send images via email to recipients to report e.g. unauthorized access to a specific area.
You may define one or multiple email profiles. Every email profile contains all the information required to send emails to one address. The transfer can be triggered either by a task defined in the Time Tasks dialog or by an event defined in the detail view of the Action Group Overview dialog.
You can enter any text and use predefined variables, as described in Examples for Dynamic Text in Subject Lines.
This dialog contains global options that can be used in all profiles and profile options only valid for the respective profile.
It is recommended to use the global options for entering frequently-used parameters (e.g. SMTP Server, Secure Connection, Authentication Method, User Name and Password). Leave the corresponding fields empty in the profiles in which you would like to use the global values.
Click on the More button at the bottom of the dialog to display all options for all profiles.
Set the following parameters for each profile in the Email Profiles dialog:
Option |
Description |
---|---|
Mail Profile n |
Enter a unique profile name. You can select the stored profiles in the Time Tasks and in the detail view of the Action Group Overview dialogs, in order to send emails time- or event-controlled, respectively. |
Receiver Address |
Enter the recipient's address to which the email will be sent. Example: |
Sender Address |
Enter the sender's (valid!) address. Otherwise, the email cannot be sent. Example: |
Reply Address |
If an error occurs, the email will be sent to this address. Normally, you would enter the address of either your administrator or a camera user. |
Subject |
This text will be displayed in the subject line of the email. For some examples of how this option can be used, see the Examples for Dynamic Text in Subject Lines help page. |
ip-message |
This text will be displayed in the text area for the email. You can also use dynamic text containing Variables and Placeholders. |
Attachment |
Select the desired type of data you would like to transfer:
|
Attachment: Image |
For every FTP profile, you can use a specific image format that is independent of the image format currently displayed by the camera. These formats are saved in the camera as image profiles. Select one of the image profiles defined in the Image Profiles dialog. NoteIf MxPEG has been activated in the camera, the frame rate will be reduced for ten seconds if an image is pulled from the camera using one of the image profiles. |
Attachment: Video clip |
Select the file format of the image files that will be sent:
Set the desired Clip Frame Rate and the time to include before and after the event(Time Before and Time After). NoteThe frame rate set in these boxes depends on a number of factors (e.g. the processor load at the time of the event) and may not reach the set frame rate. In particular, using the Playback has Priority setting in the Setup Menu > General Image Settings dialog can reduce the pre-alarm frame rate to 2 fps. |
Attachment: System messages |
Select the System Message Scope to include the desired range of system messages. |
Attachment: Counting Corridor Report, Heatmap Report |
Select the counting corridor or heatmap report profile in the Statistics Export Profile dropdown that you would like to use for exporting the attachment. |
Secure Connection |
The following types of encrypted connections are supported:
|
Authentication Method |
The following possibilities for authentication are supported:
|
SMTP Server |
IP address or name of the email server. Your Internet provider or administrator will provide this information. Make sure that the following prerequisites are fulfilled:
|
POP3 Server |
Enter the IP address or the name of the POP3 server. Your Internet provider or administrator will provide this information. Notes
|
User Name |
Enter the user name for logging on to the SMTP server. You will be assigned a user name either by your Internet provider or by your system administrator. NoteThis parameter will only be shown if one of the authentication methods SMTP login or POP before SMTP has been selected. |
Password |
Enter the password for logging on to the SMTP server. You will be assigned a password either by your Internet provider or by your system administrator. NoteThis parameter will only be shown if one of the authentication methods SMTP login or POP before SMTP has been selected. |
Signature |
If this parameter is activated, the camera uses the generated or uploaded SSL certificate to sign the emails that are sent using this profile. For additional information see the Web Server help page. |
If you have created or modified one or more profiles, you should test the profiles (after you have closed the dialog using the Set and Close buttons and you have stored the configuration permanently). Open the Test Current Network Configuration dialog for testing. Click on the Transfer button behind the corresponding profile and monitor the output on the Network Test Log window. For additional information on this topic, see the Test Network Current Configuration help page.
Click on the Add new profile button at the bottom of the dialog to create a new profile. Overtype the proposed name with a name that describes the profile as good as possible; this name is used to identify the profile in other dialogs (e.g. the detail view of the action groups).
In order to delete a profile, activate the Delete checkbox at the top of the profile. The profile will be deleted as soon as you click on Set at the bottom of the dialog.
Click on the Set button to check the changed profiles. If a profile is faulty or entries are missing, you will be prompted to correct or complete your entries for this profile. If no errors have been detected, the profiles are stored temporarily.
Any newly created or modified profile is saved permanently only when the entire camera configuration is stored.
In order to activate the newly created or modified Email profiles, you do not have to reboot the camera.
Using variables and placeholders, the camera can dynamically integrate information into the emails it is sending.
