HOW DO I ENABLE EMAIL ALERTS
AND PUSH NOTIFICATIONS FOR
MOTION, SENSOR OR HEALTH
EVENTS?
Email Alerts and Push Notifications for motion, sensor and health alerts
are set through the ProConnect NVR and sent to the AvertX Connect
cloud gateway for delivery. You will need a valid AvertX Connect
account and access to a web browser with an internet connection. For
Push Notifications, you will also need the AvertX Connect Mobile app.
Enabling events allows health alerts to be sent depending on the event
and period of time:
• Video Loss (after 6 hrs)
• Recorder Not Reporting (after 12 hrs)
• Recorder Not Recording (after 12 hrs)
• Missing Hard Drive
Enable Sending Events to AvertX Connect:

2. Enter your AvertX Connect account’s Email and Password to link
your NVR to AvertX Connect.

• Select Send Event Images to AvertX Connect to receive
