How can I send an e-mail (email) from my V16Pro, V4Pro or VCore?

Usage:

You can send an e-mail using the "Send Mail" command in WinScriptLive. (See below for example)

Setup:

In order for this command to work, you must setup your SMTP connection settings. This can be done using the front panel (V16Pro and V4Pro), AMI-Terminal, or using HTTP.

 

Currently, we do not support SSL. Usually, port "25" is the standard SMTP port.

At present, you can use any standard gmail account without using SSL:

You may need to only send to another gmail address though.

Current Settings that work:
Server: aspmx.l.google.com
Port: 25
Username: yourname@gmail.com
Password: pass
From: "Me" <yourname@gmail.com>

HTTP Setup

is shown below. Note: the "Default flash (or SD) card files" must be present on the card to change settings over HTTP.   

  1. Type the IP address of the VCore or V16Pro into a browser (such as Chrome)
  2. Login to the device using the default username "admin" and password "password"
  3. Click on the "E-mail" link and enter settings for your e-mail server. 

 Note: The settings below use G-mail's service without SSL. SSL is currently not supported by the V16Pro, V4Pro or VCore. Further details on using this gmail service can be found here: https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en

Troubleshooting:

If for any reason you are having trouble getting your e-mail to send, the best way to determine the problem is by looking at the "Live Log". 

  1. Add the show controller's name by itself to the "Watch" list (ie: V16Pro, V4Pro, Or Vcore)
  2. Go into "Live Mode" with your controller
  3. Click on the "Live Log" button on your "Watch List" View
  4. Run the Sequence containing the e-mail event or press the "Stoplight" button while the "Send E-mail" even line is selected.
  5. You should see some data exchange similar to that shown below
