7. Release the left scan button.
8. The Update Loader application first looks for a file on a microSD card. If it does not find it, it looks in the \temp
directory.
When it finds the appropriate file, it loads the package onto the MC9500-K. A progress bar displays until the
update completes.

Creating a Splash Screen
Use a bitmap file to create a customized splash screens for the MC9500-K. Use Image Update with a bitmap file,
rather than a package file, to update the splash screen.
To create a custom splash screen:
1. Create a .bmp file using a graphic program with the following specifications:
•
Size: 592 x 480.
•
Colors: 16 bits per pixel (65536 colors) for color displays.
2. Modify the bitmap file and save.
To load the splash screen on the MC9500-K:
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
•
MC9500-K’s \temp directory.
3. If using an SD card, insert the SD card into the MC9500-K.
4. Perform a cold boot.
5. Press the left side scan button for 5 seconds while booting to invoke the Update Loader and install the splash
screen.
NOTE When initiating an update via a boot sequence, the update loader looks for updates first on the root of an
installed microSD card and then in the \temp folder on the MC9500-K’s persistent storage volume. A response
file, pkgs.lst, indicates which files to update. In most cases, Motorola provides this pkgs.lst file with the update
and you should only modify it when updating a splash screen partition. See Creating a Splash Screen for more
information.
