Using a custom boot script and logo

With BrightSign software version 1.1, you can change the startup logo or add a boot script. Both
the logo and boot script are stored in the internal FLASH and have a size limit of 200KB.

Using your own boot logo

1

Save your logo in one of the following file formats: BMP, 8 bit indexed, or RLE encoded.

2

Copy your logo to a CF card.

3

Connect your BrightSign to a PC using a null modem cable (see

Accessing the BrightSign

shell

for details).

4

Run a terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal (see

Accessing the BrightSign

shell

for details).

5

Insert the CF card into your BrightSign and apply power.

6

When the terminal prompt appears, type the following (where LOGO.BMP is the name of
your logo file):

writebootfile logo.bmp boot.bmp

7

Reboot BrightSign, and your logo should appear.

Using your own boot script (HD600 only)

You can create your own boot script using a self-contained script file. For example, the boot script
can't be used to play a playlist or interactive playlist. You can, however, use the boot script to play
any content on your CF card (images, audio, and videos).

1

Save your boot script as MYSCRIPT.BAS.

2

Copy MYSCRIPT.BAS to a CF card.

3

Connect your BrightSign to a PC using a null modem cable (see

Accessing the BrightSign

shell

for details).
