Help with programing PLC and setup mail

What kind of relay board do you have, could you please post a schematic for the relay board?
You don't have to use the relay board posted here, as long as your relay board control input is limited to 10mA or so for each signal input.
You can have 5V relay board, as long as you provide 5V power to your relay board, do not take 5V from WebControl board, since it can not provide enough current for the relay board. If too much current, it could burn out the 5V regulator, then you will have to repair it.
 
Just google "darlington transistor relay" and "diode protection relay".  If you have 6 relays you probably want to consider using a ULN2003A.

Do you have question in the notification screen, or PLC program?
 
For notification screen, the top part enter your sender information, which email account you use to send out email.  That must be NON-SSL email server, like Yahoo email server or inside COX network email server  Then in each EM1-EM8, you decide who will receive email, that is normally different email account from sending account.  Then enter the message you want to tell the other side, for example, temperature is beyond 40C, or temperature is below 35F.
 
Once you got that configured, you can save the configuration and THEN test the email is working.
After you get that working, we will continue help you with PLC programming.  Please first confirm your email notification is configured okay.
 
Hello, I'm trying to send mail using a Yahoo account (pressing the test button) and it's not working for me. 
I'm using SMTP Host smtp.mail.yahoo.com  & Port 465
The To Address is my verizon.net email address and the From Address is my yahoo email address.
 
What am I doing wrong?
 
Using a 2.2.2 board with Version: v03.02.09 on the banner.  (The clock is setting itself okay, now that I've set it for UTC-4 for EST).
Back when I first got my board, I had it running using Gmail (IIRC).. But that was in 2011  Should have taken notes!
 
Thanks,
Rich

If you are sending only to your verizon.net address, then I would change the SMTP settings to use relay.verizon.net and port 25, no username or password.
(Why? Because verizon.net specify their best MX as relay.verizon.net, and they will need to listen to the millions of SMTP/ESMTP servers all over the world to accept legitimate mail to other verizon.net users, and since it's not being asked to RELAY, it should accept and deliver your mail directly)
 
AZ1324 is correct. In last few version GUI, the configuration page showed a sample server name and sample port, that is what to use when using Yahoo email. You will need to enter your Yahoo email account ID and password to reflect your information.
