AMDV10818 recording trigger email

[kx4sam]

I have email setting tested and I get email.

I have my cameras set to record only with motion detection,

How do I go from a triggered recording to sending an email with a picture?

Hi kx4sam,

To get an email alerts your DVR must have connected to network.

First, navigate to Settings and click Network then Email below it.
See SMTP Server: For Gmail type in smtp.gmail.com
(Below the instructions, different mailing address variables are be provided.)
See Port: Type in 465 (this port is for SSL Encryption.)
See Username/Password: Type in your Gmail address and password. (just like if you were logging into Gmail.)
See Receiver: Type in your Gmail address again.
See Sender: Type in your Gmail address again.
See Subject: Type in a title for the emails' subject. (“Amcrest Security”, “HDCVI”, etc.)
Check the box for Attachment.
See Encrypt Type and select SSL.
Click Apply and Save. Click Test.

You should be receiving a test email and the email configuration should be set. If the email test fails make sure your Email Account has 2-Step Verification turned off. Confirm your Internet settings on the DVR are configured correctly.

After you login to your Gmail and you can view your inbox open a new tab and go to:

Scroll down and find 2-Step Verification under Password & sign-in method, click the pencil icon and disable it.
