profilux emails - upgrade?

[samyueru]

Any chance for more options for the proflix email options? I'd love to be able to get an email a couple times of a day with sensor data.
Right now we can do it with the profilux control software, but it has to be on 24/7 and I've noticed mine won't keep it's connection up wirelessly too well.

which profilux do you have

a P3 can do it without PLC , all the others can't do it without PLC.

also its best to increase the timeout in the connection settings to something higher then the default 1000 ms my tcp/ip timeout has been set to 5000 ms

[samyueru]

I have a p3 - it will send alert emails and digital inputs, but it won't send probe data or switch status from the p3 itself.

[Blahenazo]

then you just need the correct email messages because it is possible

[samyueru]

uh...
In email settings (profilux), when you create an alarm, there is no spot to insert a variable. In email settings (pc) there is.

If it can be done, like you say but don't really back up with anything helpful, I'd love to know how.

I use 3 messages , most off them use the discription in P3 so use them too , they are all send by my P3 directly (remark : use short names because long tokens are cut off )

I always put alarm on top
email 1: alarm msg: (displays 1 or more alarms ) there is a thread on the forum why I made it like this

General:
$$ALMS$$

Alarm Detail:
$$REPS[10][5]$$
$$ALMS[xx]$$
$$REPE$$



email 2: sensor and level (you need to tweak level a bit ) and sensor is a bit fubar because the profilux also takes sensors in the loop that are disabled !!! ?????? I wonder why !!!!!!! GHL ???

$$ALMS$$

S
$$REPS[32][00]$$ $$SEND[xx]$$ - $$SENV[xx]$$
$$SENL[xx]$$
$$REPE$$


L
$$LEVD[0]$$ - $$LEVV[0]$$
$$LEVD[3]$$ - $$LEVV[3]$$


email 3 : illu and switch

$$ALMS$$

I
$$REPS[32][01]$$ $$ILLD[xx]$$ - $$ILLV[xx]$$
$$REPE$$

S
$$REPS[32][02]$$ $$SWID[xx]$$ - $$SWIS[xx]$$ [$$SWIC[xx]$$]
$$REPE$$

Who do you guys use for your ISP as I have tried yahoo and my work and home but no luck sending a email ?
I want to get this working ASAP as I will be going away for a few days soon.

Help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Maury,
I don't thnk it's the ISP. (In any case, I have comcast) - you gotta make sure you have the right settings. For yahoo, domain server should be smtp.mail.yahoo.com - use mailserver authentication and put in your login/password. port is 25.

As i have the webserver access away from home just cant get a dam email
