•
Size: 296 x 240.
•
Colors: 16 bits per pixel (65536 colors) for color displays.
2. Modify the bitmap file and save.
To load the splash screen on the MC55:
1. Create a text file named pkgs.lst which contains the name of the bmp file. For example, mysplash.bmp.
2. Copy the bmp file and the pkgs.lst file to one of the following:
•
SD card root directory
•
MC55’s \temp directory
•
MC55’s \Windows directory.
3. If using a microSD card, insert the microSD card into the MC55.
