[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1065210, member: 175144"] A customer has asked me to set up a CCTV which is in the main to act as a deterrent by virtue of the three cameras on the front and sides of their property, since they are away for long weekends. I've put two simple systems up recently from the same manufacturer , both have been installed with the third party SSD inside and are using this only for recording of the near vicinity, with one going further with the motion detection of 'sensitive' areas within the path and driveway). They are both able to see the camera views using the mobile phone but appear never to bother, but it confirms the box is wired up correctly to the home hub and manufacturers cloud access. This one is asking about the notification by email of events, which is a feature I have not enabled before, there is instruction within the user guide on enabling and sending out a test email, but the specific figures include entering a their email address (gmail) and their email password within the OSD, which I would have thought is superfluous to having registered already onto the cloud access. Whilst another page in the manual does mention enabling less secure apps to deal with, this relates to the failure of getting the alarm notication to be sent as opposed to the setting up of a test. So, why would the DVR software require the users email password in order to initiate an alarm test and is it all above board ? Thanks in advance [ATTACH=full]122065[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
