How to enable Push Notifications on a Speco Blue Recorder

This guide will go over the steps required to enable Push Notifications to be sent from the Speco Blue Recorder to the Speco Blue mobile app.

• First, access the Settings menu of the Speco Blue Recorder.

• Once the Settings menu appears, please select the AI / Event page. That should automatically open the Event Notification > Alarm Out page.

• Towards the top of the page that opens, or top-left of the screen, there will be an option called Push. Please select Push.
  • On that page, put a checkmark in the box next to Enable.
  • The Schedule option is set to 24/7 by default. The schedule can be adjusted to only send push notifications at certain times for certain days.
    • Select Apply to activate the feature.
    • Select Test to test the connection to Speco's Push Server.
      • Please note: Selecting Test before selecting Apply will result in a test failure.

• Opening the Speco Blue app on a mobile device, the Live screen should be the first to appear. From the Live screen, select the button in the top-left corner. (Looks like a rectangle on 2 squares)
  • From the left-side menu, select Push Setting.

• At the Push Setting menu, select the recorder unit that needs push notifications enabled.

• Once the recorder is selected, select the slider next to Enable Push Message to activate push notifications on the mobile app.
  • A larger menu will appear, this menu allows the user to determine exactly what notifications they would like to receive, and from which cameras. Please adjust as-per user preference

The recorder unit should now be configured to send push notifications, and the mobile device should now be configured to receive push notifications.

Some mobile devices ask for an additional permission for an app to send/receive push notifications. Please allow the permission as denying the permission will block the device from receiving notifications.
