Below are the steps that are needed in order to use Gmail as your Sender for email alerts on your recorder:

1. Open your Gmail then click your avatar at the top-right then click Manage your Google Account
   
   
   
2. At the left side, click Security and make sure to turn on 2-Step Verification
3. Once done, click App passwords
   
   
   
4. It will verify you first by entering your Google account's password; do so then click Next
5. From here, click Select app then choose Other; Enter any name you like then click Generate
   
   
   
   
6. A pop-up window will appear giving you the temporary password; copy that password as you will use it later to the recorder's email alert setup
   
   
   • Once you click Done, you can't see this password anymore. Therefore make sure you have a copy; otherwise, you will need to delete it and start over again.

Don't forget to use the following for the SMTP settings:

• SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com
• SMTP Port: 587
