Creating a Splash Screen
The source bitmap files used to create the default splash screens for the mobile computer are supplied with the DCP for MC3000
These files can be modified using any of the standard windows image editors, allowing customization for particular customers.
To create a custom splash screen, perform the following steps:
1. For mobile computers with monochrome screens, open the Splashmono.bmp file supplied with the DCP for MC3000 using
an image editor.
2. For mobile computers with color screens, open the Splashcolor.bmp file supplied with the DCP for MC3000 using an image
editor.
3. Modify the bitmap file and save.
4. Create a splash partition using the steps in Building the Image on page 6-8.
Splash Screen Format
If the default files are not used to create the new splash screens, ensure to preserve the image format.
See Sending the Hex Image on page 6-9 for information about loading the splash screen using TCM and IPL.
