Under Windows XP, Windows 2000 and Windows 98 the indicator works with Outlook 2000 onwards.
At the PC the EMail Alarm can be controlled from a user window or from the system tray where an icon also shows when new mail has arrived. The user window can be minimised to work behind a program that utilises the entire screen or behind the screen-saver, password protected for extra privacy. The Outlook window does not have to be visible for the unit to operate.

The audible alarm can be disabled in software and also manually cancelled at the remote location that may be up to 30 metres away. In the idle mode a visual 'keep alive' signal from the NMI re-assures you that your inbox is still being monitored and that the alarm is still functioning.
Powered from a standard 9-way serial port the remote alarm indicator has both audible and visual alarms. (For a more powerful sounder a universal 90-240V AC adapter is available as an option).

The hardware comprises an ABS box housing the single PCB, led indicator, sounder and cancel button. For ease of installation cabling is 'off the shelf' Cat5 network cable terminated with RJ45 plugs.

The EMail Alarm is somewhat universal. For further information or if you are looking for something similar please contact us E-Mail

The EMail Alarm (Or latterly renamed New Mail Indicator - NMI)- is no longer on the market, details are included here for information only and to illustrate what we can do. Intended for marine/shipboard use the New Mail Indicator lets the user know without having to return to their PC that new mail has arrived. They can see or hear from a distance that they have mail. User Manual. Typical applications include MPDS or HF based systems that ‘silently’ receive e-mail without warning. Other advantages can be avoiding having to power up the PC monitor in a darkened bridge to check for mail or, by siting the NMI away from the PC, being able to lock the workspace where the PC is located (e.g. the bridge when in port).
