The UPSMON password blocks entry to the UPSMON tools battery test and emergency shut

down. Knowledge of this password enable users to gain access to these security relevant

functions.

3.2.3 Email

If you wish to define actions to send Emails depending on specified events you need to

configure the Email settings.

Figure 19: HTTP - Email Settings

In this menu the internet name of your SMTP mail client is required. If DNS is not configured,

the actual mail server name’s IP-address has to be entered. Please also note that the sender

account name (e.g. [email protected]) should not be a random name since some

Emailservers do not allow this. We recommend to use an existing account e.g.

[email protected]. Most servers require matching account name and mail server names. E.g.

[email protected] would be correct, whereas just “someone” would not be sufficient.

If the server name and account name do not match, the following error message will be

displayed in the CS121 alarm logfile (after some minutes): “Mail: bad answer from mail server:

501 UPSIP204@wrong server.com sender domain must exist.”

The user can check the logfile if the email transfer works. The logfile (text.log under the

adapter’s root directory ../Flash/text.log) can be viewed using FTP, via the UPSMON tool or via

the Webbrowser “Alarm log”.

Mailservers outside the LAN require a username and password. For this function please use

“email authentication” and enter a username and the corresponding email password (twice).

Note: Do not use email authorization if this is not required by your mailserver !

If authorization is required, the email function “AUTH LOGIN” (the CS121 adapter supports

only this function) needs to be supported. (e.g. Freemail.de). This changes the protocol from

SMTP to ESMTP and a password is required.

The length of the password should be a minimum 3 and a maximum of 63 characters.

Send a test-mail to validate your settings after you have applied the mail-settings. A short

message on the menu indicates whether the test-mail could be sent or not.

Note: Please ensure that you have specified a DNS-server in menu “Network

& Security” if the mail-server could not be reached.
