Dear Roger,

you may want to create a html webpage, and you will have to periodically upload an image. The latter is perhaps the more tricky part, and I will describe the way I use the DOS FTP client which comes with Windows.

First go to the SpecLab home directory (normally c:\Spectrum) and create= a
textfile named eg. "ftp_vlf.txt", containing the ftp commands:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
open <host>
<login>
<password>
quote pasv
bin
put vlf.jpg vlf.jpg
bye
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Host, login and password are the information given by your provider, witho= ut
the brackets. The quote pasv command may or may not be required.

Then open SpecLab's periodic actions tab, and enter the lines
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
capture ("vlf.jpg")
exec ("ftp -s:ftp_vlf.txt")
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
into the action macro field. Fill in a time interval (eg. 00:10:00) betwee= n
captures, check the "active" box and click "Ok".

Hope that may be useful...

73, Markus (DF6NM)
