Misc Options
⦁ Enable Automatic Offline Download: When this option is enabled, the controller will automatically update the
users and other offline parameters on legacy intelligent expander modules at the Automatic Offline Time
(Configuration tab). This option is not used for DIN rail modules.
⦁ Log All Access Level Events: When enabled the controller will generate events, including the reason a user
was denied access if they do not have the required access rights.
⦁ Do Not Wait for Dial Tone When Modem Dials Out: When enabled the modem dials out without waiting for a
dial tone.
This setting is only supported by controller models with onboard modem dialers.
⦁ Purge Old Events: When enabled the controller periodically deletes all events older than a specified number of
days (14 days by default) from the event log. This is required by local legislation in some countries.
System Settings | Email Settings
Email on event enables you to trigger an email that is sent automatically when specific events occur. This feature
can be configured to operate on area or input records.
Important: For emails to be sent, a valid DNS and gateway configuration is required.
This functionality supports TLS connection up to TLS 1.3. Insecure connection protocols are not supported.
This feature is only available in Advanced Mode.

Email SMTP Settings
⦁ SMTP Mail Server: The address of the outgoing SMTP mail server.
⦁ SMTP Port: The port used for outgoing mail connections. Typical numbers include 25 and 587.
⦁ Use SSL: When this option is enabled, Protege WX will use TLS 1.2 to transmit emails to the SMTP server. Both
the host OS and the SMTP server must support TLS 1.2, and the SMTP Port above must be changed to a TLS-
enabled port (e.g. 587, 2525). When this option is disabled, no encryption will be used.
⦁ SMTP Logon: The logon for the outgoing SMTP mail server.
⦁ SMTP Password: The password for the outgoing SMTP mail server logon.
⦁ SMTP Timeout: Defines how long (in seconds) before the connection times out.
⦁ Sender Email Address: The email address used when sending outgoing mail.
⦁ Sender Display Name: The display name used when sending outgoing mail. If a display name is not entered,
the sender email address is used.
