Screensaver

Last Updated : Mar 29, 2021 |

After a set idle time, 9600 Series phones can display a screen saver image. Whilst the phone remains idle, this image is moved to another random position on the screen every 5 seconds.

For phones being fully supported by the IP Office system, a default file is automatically provided by the IP Office system by default. If otherwise:

  • The timeout for the screensaver and the name of the image file are set through customizing the 46xxsettings.txt file.

  • The image file to use must be loaded onto the file server used by the phones.

The following are the image requirements

  • Format: JPG images.

  • Maximum Pixel Size: The image must be smaller than the screen size of the phone. If the image is larger, it will not be displayed. When several types of phones are present using the same image, the image must be below the size maximums of all the phone type. If using the 46xxsettings.txt file to specify the screen saver settings, it is possible to specify a separate image for each phone type.

  • Color Displays: Color depth is 16 bit. A separate color image looks best.

  • Non-Color Displays: Best results are achieved with a single grayscale logo image. 2 levels of grayscale are also supported.

  • Transparency: To invoke a transparent background, use a background color of 0,255,0 (brightest possible green).

The default IP Office settings use an image file called 96xxiposs.jpg. Using the embedded file manager within IP Office Manager, replace the existing file in the system's /primary folder with your custom image. Reboot the phones in order for them to load the new image.
