General Phone Information
Customizing SPA9x2 Phones
Changing the Display Background (SPA942/962)
You can use a logo and picture to customize the background on your SPA942 and SPA962 LCD
displays:
• SPA942: use 128 x 48 black and white image (1-bit color).
• SPA962: use 320 x 240 pixel bitmap (.bmp) image (1, 4, 8, 24, or 32-bit color).
NOTE: The phone does not reboot after you change the background image URL.
1. Copy the .BMP image to a TFTP or HTTP server that is accessible from the phone.
2. Log on to the web UI for the phone.
3. Click the Phone tab and refer to the General settings at the top of the page.
4. Select BMP Picture from the Select Background Picture drop-down list.
5. Enter the URL of the .bmp file you want in the BMP Picture Download URL field. The URL must
include the TFTP/HTTP server name (or IP address), directory, and filename, for example:
tftp://myserver.mydomain.com/images/downloadablebmppicture.bmp
or
http://myserver.mydomain.com/images/downloadablebmppicture.bmp
6. Click Submit All Changes.
When the BMP Picture Download URL is changed, the phone compares the URL to the previous
image’s URL. (If the URLs are the same, the phone does not perform the download.) If the URLs
are different, the SPA9x2 downloads the new image and displays it (providing the selected in
the Select Background Picture field is set to BMP Picture).
Using the Photo Album Feature on the SPA962
The photo album feature provides a refreshable display of photos on SPA962 phones. If the
HTTP Refresh Timer is set in the server’s response to BMP Picture Download URL, the phone
downloads the picture from the link and displays it on the screen. The phone automatically re-
gets the picture after the specified number of seconds.

line displays a scrolling message "Press any key to unlock your
phone."
