Email Alert Management
With Werks you can receive email and cell phone alerts (messages) when a camera detects motion. You have
the option of receiving one of three message types: simple text-only, text and one frame of video, or a video
clip. In any case, this email alert option allows you to know when your cameras are capturing motion.
You set email alerts on the Werks Setup > Email dialog, which allows you to activate and configure email alerts.
The following graphic is a screen shot of the Email dialog, after setting some of the options:
