Settings for a game camera to send SMS and emails
G'day
I have a HC 700 GE Game camera I want to use to manage stock but I can't seem to get it to send emails or MMS. . I have contacted the Chinese manufacturer but they have my money now so couldn't care less.
The settings I have are as follows
For MMS ;
GPRS settings
APN ?
Account
Password
Then it says
Server Settings;
MMSC : ?
IP: ?
Port: ?
Then for SMTP it says
Server settings and I have a choice of
Other, Gmail or Hotmail ,it will be other in my case.
I then have a choice of SSL no SSL or STARTTLS .
Then
Server ?
Port ?
Password:
Anyone have any ideas ? I have a Telstra SIM with heaps of data on it ready to go .
Thanks

The GSM version will not work in Australia as all the GSM networks have been shut down.

Re: Settings for a game camera to send SMS and emails
I've been doing some reading about these cameras and there are 2 things that you need to do.
Put the SIM card into a phone and make sure that it doesn't have a PIN set. If it does, use the phone to remove the SIM PIN.
Do not use MMS for transmitting photos. It is a rather expensive method. Turn off the MMS in the Camera settings and set up SMTP (email). Get yourself a Gmail account and enter those details in the SMTP settings of the camera.

Re: Settings for a game camera to send SMS and emails
Howdy. I ended up getting a partial refund for the camera. They agreed to give me the difference between the 3g model and the non-3g model. I wanted another camera anyway so I am happy with that. I will now find something locally to do the job I wanted this camera to do. I still haven't been able to make it work. Good luck and thanks for your help. Cheers
