7) Set Up Home Station Email

To enable your Home Station to receive emails/data, and send remote updates, you must set up a Home Station email. Multiple LevelSenders can report to one Home Station email.

To set up your Home Station email, open the LevelSender Software and click  email setup icon.

Once you have set up your Home Station email, you can test that the settings you entered are correct by clicking email icon.

This will open the LevelSender Email Client. You can access the LevelSender Email Client at any time to view all emails received and sent by the Home Station, including test emails.

 

Note:

Emails are not required if you are using Solinst Cloud. See separate User Guide.
