Uploading graphics files
Graphics files may be uploaded to the frame and assigned as tile objects for display.
They might be used for channel identification purposes and up to four images may be
displayed at any one time.
Graphics files to be stored in the frame must be in the .bmp or .png format. Uploading the
files is performed using a PC connected to the LAN port directly, or over a network.
1) Establish communication with the frame by using Windows Explorer to search for the
IP address of the frame:
ftp://192.168.0.120
, or whatever the current IP address is set to.
2) To view this FTP site in Windows Explorer, click Page, and then click Open FTP Site
in Windows Explorer Right click in the right hand side of the Windows Explorer page
and select ‘Login As…’ from the menu. The FTP server Log On As window appears. Log
in with the user name root, using the password smv. The complete list of currently loaded
files is revealed.
3) Copy the graphics file or files to the clipboard and paste them into the right hand side
of the Windows Explorer page.
4) The file transfer will begin.
5) When the upload is complete, reboot the frame to update the file list.
Note:
The IP addresses of the frame and the PC must be in the same range. If necessary, the
IP address of the frame can be changed using the setup utility, or within the on-screen
configuration menu if using the SV-Remote.
