8-1 Overview of Mail Function
The mail function can be used to send user-created information, error log
information, and status information as e-mail to an address set in the CPU
Bus Unit System Setup. Mail can be triggered in any of the following ways:
• When an error is registered to the error log.
• At regular intervals.
• When a dedicated control switch is turned ON.
Note A mail server is required in order to use the mail function. Mail server settings
require specialized knowledge and should always be handled by the network
administrator. Be sure you have a clear understanding of the mail system
before using this function. Mail delivery is not guaranteed. Depending on fac-
tors such as the condition of the network, mail that has been sent may not
arrive at its destination.
