The
microcontroller can notify someone of an alert condition. It can properly
format an email message and send it over the TCP/IP network using the SMTP
email protocol. The content of the message can include diagnostic
information, order parts from stock from the system manufacturer,
and provide regular email notification of service intervals.
The
Email server receives the message & sends it to the appropriate mailbox.
***If
the email is sent to an external internet address, a numeric or text page can
be immediately transmitted to a duty technician, with no limitations as to features
or content.

| If the networked microcontroller has the SMTP TCP protocol, and if the network has access to an email server, the microcontroller can notify a technician of a critical event by sending emails alerting user(s) of an event. In addition, because most pager companies support email paging. the embedded system can send a page to a technician notifying them of a critical event that needs immediate attention. |
