!Please be aware that below example is for Phones running Software older than UCS 4.0.x!
Detailed instructions can be found in the Custom Background Technical Bulletin 62473 => here <=
The Admin Guide matching your Phone Software describes within the <bg> Section how to change the Background Images that come with the Phone Software from Factory.
Using a SoundPoint IP 450 we start by creating a configuration file (in this example called background.cfg) and we are changing the Sailboat256x116.jpg Option 2 as follows:
(attached as NewSailboat256x116.jpg)
The Configuration:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <!-- Application SIP Wolverine 3.3.4.0085 19-Dec-11 00:05 --> <!-- Created 02-02-2012 14:52 --> <POLYCOM> <bg bg.medRes.gray.bm.2.name="NewSailboat256x116.jpg" /> </POLYCOM>
We are loading the new configuration (background.cfg) via the 000000000000.cfg or a individual <mac>.cfg:
CONFIG_FILES="background.cfg"
We can then via the Menu select the new Background Picture:
The Phone will then show the new Background:
The Background Number "2" could be automatically chosen on Bootup if:
bg.medRes.gray.selection="3,2"
would be added to the background.cfg
NOTE: Limitations for the filesize are described within the Admin Guide. Different Models require a different String other than the suggested above.
Since UCS 4.0.0 a background picture can be added via the Web Browser.
Connect to the Phone via its IP address and select the Preference => Background option.
Click on + Add a new Background Image
You can now select the source for the Picture, this can either be a URL or a local Image
NOTE: Limitations for the filesize are described within the Admin Guide or in below table.
or if an Expansion Module is attached:
Once the Picture has been selected it will be uploaded to a temporary space on the Phone.
A => provisioning server <= is required for the phone to store the file and be able to re-load after a reboot.
The backround picture can be tested via the => captureScreen <= Option
