J179 Background (Aura)
To set a custom J179 background on Aura, there are two steps:
- Upload a suitable image file...
- the image file(s) must be 320×240 jpegs (.jpg), 16 bit color, and less than 256KB. - Edit the
46xxsettings.txtfile...
- the following lines are added for the background image(s):
| BACKGROUND_IMAGE | [filename.jpg] | List of images, comma separated, in brackets |
| BACKGROUND_IMAGE_DISPLAY | [filename.jpg] | Administrator choice of default background image |
| BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SELECTABLE | [0..1] | Allow end user to change backgrounds: 1=yes, 0=no |
Files are handled through the Aura Utility Services web interface:
Select IP Phone Custom Upload from the left menu, then Display Custom Directory, or Upload Custom Files and Activate.
Create a custom 46xxspecials.txt as follows:
- Retrieve the current settings file by opening: http://<ip_address>/46xxspecials.txt in a browser
- Copy/paste the text into notepad, and add the BACKGROUND_IMAGE lines to end up with something like this:
SET SIG 2
SET SIPDOMAIN pbxbook.com
SET DNSSRVR 10.18.15.22
SET SNTPSRVR 10.23.25.254
SET SIP_CONTROLLER_LIST 10.18.15.41:5061;transport=tls,10.18.15.42:5061;transport=tls
SET TRUSTCERTS smgr.txt
SET PROCPSWD 27238
SET GMTOFFSET "+1:00"
SET DSTOFFSET 1
SET DSTSTART 4SunMar2L
SET DSTSTOP 4SunOct2L
SET BACKGROUND_IMAGE "blank_BG.jpg,Blue_White.jpg"
SET BACKGROUND_IMAGE_DISPLAY "Blue_White.jpg"
SET BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SELECTABLE 1
SET TLSSRVRID 0
IF $GROUP SEQ 500 GOTO SBC
GOTO END
.
# END
- Save as 46xxspecials.txt, then upload this file and the .jpg image file(s) using the Aura Utility Services web interface.
