screen displays the message “[Detail] = Confirm.”
N The unit supports 24-bit bitmap files only. Their file names must have no more
than 16 characters, including the .bmp extension.
C The image that you save overwrites any existing image file with the same
file name.
5 . Press the Detail button (the top button located at the immediate left of the
LCD screen).
The LCD screen displays the message “Save Background to Mem. Saving
Busy!!!” The time the MGP takes to save an image varies depending on
the image file size. For example, a 1024 by 768 pixel image takes about 150
seconds to save; a very large image combined with a high output resolution
could take as long as 5 minutes.
After 20 seconds, the MGP displays the default cycle, but the Menu and Next
buttons continue to blink until the image capture is complete.
N The unit continues to respond to commands while it is saving an image;
however, the response time is longer. It is not recommended that you attempt to
save or recall another background image during this process.
