sending E mail without Tl server

[Aki Sigurdsson]

I like to send e mail when I get input on the plc..

I have Xserver connect to the plc and have connection with the Ethernet through the xserver.

In the example som came with the softwere, then we need to have the tl server open..

But I have only Xserver and I am programming the plc without using the Tl server.

Regards Aki

You have to set the SMTP server address in the XServer using the XServerConfig.exe program.

After that, you can use "File & Email Service" features of the XServer to send out email. Please refer to the XServer User's Guide for details.

Note that the SMTP server you use should be able to accept simple SMTP request. Some ISP implements complex email handshake protocol in order combat spam but this can give rise to difficulties to send out email. If you are able to send out email using the TLServer then the same SMTP server should be able to handle emailing from XServer. Alternatively you may need to install a personal SMTP server to bypass the emails restriction imposed by the ISP.
