ONFIGURATION
The XML Custom Screen API is configurable in 2 steps:
1.
Enable Idle Screen XML Download
(P340): NO/YES-HTTP/YES-TFTP (default NO). Possible
values 0 (NO)/1 (HTTP)/2 (TFTP), other values ignored.
2.
Idle Screen XML Server Path
(P341): This is a string of up to
128 characters
that contains a path
to the XML file. It must follow the host/path format.
i.e.
“directory.grandstream.com/engineering”
The XML feature is activated when “Enable Idle Screen XML Download” is set to
YES
(HTTP or TFTP) and
a valid “Idle Screen XML Server Path” is set.
To download or erase the XML file, the following 2 options should be selected in the
Preference LCD GUI
submenu:
•

is effective immediately after download. Save the file for future use.
