Changing the Display Background (SPA942/962)
This section applies to the SPA 942 and SPA962, which provide the option to create a customized
background. For the SPA962, you can use a 320 x 240 pixel bitmap (.bmp) image (1, 4, 8, 24, or 32-bit
color) for the background image that appears on the LCD display. For the SPA942, the image should be
128 x 48 black and white (1-bit color).
You can include the definition of the required parameters in the configuration profile for the SPA 942 or
SPA962, or use the administration web server.
To use the administration web server to configure a customized image perform the following steps:
Step 1 Copy the bitmap (.bmp) image you want to use to a TFTP server that is accessible from the SPA962.
Step 2 Connect a browser to the administration web server for the SPA 942 or SPA962.
Step 3 Click the Phone tab and refer to the General tab at the top of the page (see Figure 3-4).
