The Y-cam Knight can also upload an image to an FTP server upon receiving an alarm from the motion
detector window or at specific time intervals.
FTP is a commonly used protocol for exchanging files over any network or internet and there are a
number of FTP providers which will allow you to upload the images free of charge.
Eg. http://free.prohosting.com would have the following settings for account name “ycamuk” uploading an
image every 1 hour 1 minute 10 seconds i.e. Every 3670 seconds.
