Table 3
Address
Description
HDX100.0
Sending trigger
HDX101.0~HDX101.15
It is used for triggering recipient groups, for example, HDW101.0 set ON, and the address in group 1 will be in recipient list.
HDX103.0-HDX103.15
It is used for triggering recipient groups, for example, HDW103.0 set ON, and the address in group 1 will be in CC list.

Sending settings screen description
✎Note:
1) Email function is available in special HMI model, when you purchase HMI, please tell salesman or distributors whether you need email function.
2) The email sent manually is sent without priority (bit change, rising edge, falling edge, and the email triggered by the timing condition needs to be queued in the order of triggering. The maximum value is 100. If it is added, it will be discarded.)
3) In the rising edge trigger mode, if the HMI is sending an email, the trigger signal is invalid. Only after the email has been sent, a new email is generated and sent. Whether the mail is sent successfully or not, the bit address will be reset;
4) In manual mode, the email will only be sent once, whether the transmission was successful or failed.
