9.14 Setting bitmap
9.14.1 Sending bitmap file
You can set the bitmap image to be displayed on the sink device. Up to four bitmaps can be registered. IDK’s
logo is displayed by Factory default.
Bitmaps can be enlarged but cannot be reduced. The larger the resolution is, the longer the output time will be,
and it may take a maximum of approximately six seconds to output a bitmap. Register a bitmap having
smaller resolution than that of the sink device.

Conditions of bitmap file
The MSD supports DIB (Device Independent Bitmap) with a header generally used for Windows, and those
files have to meet the following requirements:
[Table 9.32] Conditions of bitmap file
Item
Condition
File header
“BITMAPFILEHEADER”
Information header
“BITMAPCOREHEADER”(for OS/2) /
“BITMAPINFOHEADER”(for Windows)
The number of colors
2 colors (monochrome, 1 bit), 16 colors (4 bits), 256 colors (8 bits), 16.77
million colors (TRUE COLOR, 24 bits)
Resolution
The maximum resolution: [Horizontal resolution x Vertical resolution x The
number of bytes per pixel] = 8,388,608 bytes or less. If you register several
bitmaps, the total bytes of all bitmaps should be 8,388,608 bytes or less.
(Aspect ratio does not matter as long as it is within the maximum
resolution).
Bytes per pixel: 1 byte per pixel for 2 colors (monochrome, 1 bit), 16 colors
(4 bits), and 256 colors (8 bits); 3 bytes per pixel for 16.77 million colors
(TRUE COLOR, 24 bits).
Compression format
No compression (BI_RGB), 8 bit-run-length compression (BI_RLE8), 4
bit-run-length compression (BI_RLE4)
■
Transferring bitmap file
Use the WEB menu to transfer bitmap files.
Step (1) If the memory area is divided, select the registered area of the bitmap file.
Step (2) Select the target bitmap file using the “FILE” button.
Step (3) Click the “SEND” button to display the dialog box and click the “OK” button to transfer the bitmap file.
