9.16 Bitmap setting
9.16.1 Sending bitmap file
You can set the bitmap image to be displayed on the sink device. Up to four bit maps can be registered. IDK’s
logo is displayed by 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 9.36] Bitmap file condition
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
multiple 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 a browser (e.g. Microsoft Internet Explorer) to transfer bitmap files to the MSD.
Enter “/bitmap.html” after the IP address that is programmed to the MSD.
