Triggering sending of messages
The sending of the message is triggered by an event that is configured in the "Trigger" tab
(see below).
Requirements and necessary information
Consider the following requirements in the configuration for the transfer of e-mails:
● Enabling telecontrol communication ("Communication types") parameter group
● Activating security functions
● Configuring the "E-mail configuration" parameter group
To do this, you require the following information:
– Access data of the SMTP server: Address, port number, user name, password
– E-mail address of the recipient
– When using STARTTLS or SSL/TLS: Certificate of the e-mail service provider
Here you configure the recipient, the subject and the text of the message.
In the "Trigger" parameter group you configure triggering for sending the message and other
parameters.
●
Specifies the event for which the sending of the message is triggered:
– Use PLC tag
For the trigger signal to send the message, the edge change (0 → 1) of the trigger bit
"PLC tag for trigger" that is set by the user program is evaluated. When necessary, a
separate trigger bit can be configured for each e-mail. For information on the trigger
bit, see below.
– CPU changes to STOP
– CPU changes to RUN
– Connection to a partner interrupted
Triggers the sending of the message when the connection to a partner is interrupted.
– Connection to a partner established
Triggers the sending of the message when the connection returns.
●
PLC tag for the message trigger "Use PLC tag"
If the memory area of the trigger bit is in the bit memory or in a data block, the trigger bit
is reset to zero when the message is sent.
