Email Alerts

Email alerts notify users when a camera goes offline and when it subsequently comes back online.


To enable this feature:

  1. Go to your profile settings.
  2. Check the box for Send email alerts.

Once enabled, the system will automatically send you emails alerts when camera statuses change.

Ensure you have a valid email address on file.


Email Notifications

Email notifications are triggered when a session is shared with you or a comment is directed at you.

The frequency of these notifications can be customized in the profile settings, but they are only sent for unread items. If you've already seen the notification within VALT, no email will be sent.


To enable this feature:

  1. Go to your profile settings.
  2. Check the box for Send email notifications.

Once enabled, the system will automatically send you emails for any unread VALT notifications.

Ensure you have a valid email address on file.
