Boot-Up Sequence
Once power is applied Imagestore HDTV will boot automatically and the
complete process takes about 30 seconds. The unit first checks to see if there
is a disk in the floppy drive and, if it finds one, it will attempt to boot from
that disk. Miranda Technologies Ltd issues specialised floppy disks for use as
part of the boot-up sequence when software upgrades are being implemented.
No other disk should ever be present in the floppy disk drive during the boot
sequence. The boot sequence is complete when the following top level "boot-
up" menu appears on the front panel VFD display.

Image Loading and Distribution
The entry-level Imagestore HDTV provides storage for up to forty full-screen
images with their associated keys and this can currently be upgraded to 400,
1000 or 2000 images. Each animated clip is counted as one single image
stored in the library. With large or long duration animations (where the total
pixel count of the animation exceeds one full-screen frame) the total number
of full screen frames used counts towards the permitted maximum of full-
screen images in the library.
Images (.oxt), animations and Easytest (.oxa) files saved to floppy disks from
Miranda Technologies Ltd's Media Conversion Software - (or other Miranda
Technologies Ltd units) can be loaded in the same way. The Media
