Troubleshooting
- The Graco Pulse Pro e-mail configuration points the Pulse software to your outgoing email server. Pulse Pro cannot control any configuration on that e-mail server.
- If external e-mails do not work, the SMTP server being used may not be capable of sending external e-mails. Contact your facility's IT department.
- If e-mail address doesn't work, use personal or work e-mail to confirm e-mail address being used is valid.
- If the Test Connection button results in an error. Confirm with your facility's IT department that the settings are correct and no authentication is required.
