[HMI Email Setting Limitations]

Anyone have any idea how to change email server, username, password, etc within the HMI, without requiring the changes to be done in Unilogic?

[HMI Email Setting Limitations]

Is there any way to allow a user to change email server, username, password, etc within the HMI, without requiring the changes to be done in Unilogic?

 

I have been using a gmail account, but whenever I'm forced to change a password online the PLC is no longer able to send emails without first making the changes in Unilogic and then updating the PLC.

 

Ideally all of the email account settings including adding a new email account should be able to be configured within the HMI so that this would not be an issue.

 

Also is there any way to remove the requirement for the outgoing Mail Server to end with ".com"? Lots of internal email relays do not end with a .com and this prevents their use.

 

Another requirement that is limiting is the use of an email password.

 

I understand these requirements are put in place to help prevent from someone making a mistake, but unfortunately this severly limits situations where these can't be used.

 

Thanks!

I was able to get around this by following the instructions from the following link from google concerning the settings that need to be enabled.

[Saving & Retrieving Operands to csv or xls]

I have been having the same problem. In the past I was able to use Remote Access to save Operands and then reload them, but now I get the same error. I find myself only being able to use the Export PLC Operands to File within Visilogic with any success.
