Watchdog Alerts

[mldenison]

I decided to try watchdog alerts since my doorbell camera is out of service with no signal as a test.

BI is supposed to send an email when the alert is triggered - emails work from motion detectors - and I've set up the 'loss of signal email.

However no email is sent.

I'd like to get this working before setting up my other cameras with watchdog.

Any thoughts?

What happens when you click the 'Test' button in the Action Set window?

The Test is the lightning bolt icon? It looks like I have to make sure the zones, sources, profiles have to match the camera settings. Once I changed those, it emailed the signal loss message. One would think that just a loss of signal would have sufficed. Unless my skimpy knowledge of how it works is lacking
