within the albums. Select 

View

 and either 

Details

 or 

Thumbnails

Creating A Dynamic Image for Use in PictureFrame

There are a few basic steps when creating a dynamic image for use with PictureFrame.

 

Enter any name for the Name field but it is suggested to use names that make sense when 

buttons are used.

 

The 

Protocol

 must be set to 

HTTP

.

 

The Host can be either the IP Address of machine or the machine name.

 

No Path is needed.

 

For the File, any name should be acceptable (use something that makes sense, or 

default.htm), the arguments are what is important.  PictureFrame accepts the following 

arguments:

device

port

code

width

height

 and 

system

These arguments can be parameterized so that the panel and/or button can identify itself.

Example:

pfserver.htm?device=$DV&system=$SY&width=$BX&height=$BY

$DV

 is the device number provided by the panel.

$SY

 is the system number provided by the panel.

$BX

 is the button X resolution.

$BY

 is the button Y resolution.

The Host must have the “:PORT” attached to it. PictureFrame operates on a different 
port than the standard port 80 used by HTTP servers. The default port is 130 but that 
can be changed, as long as the PictureFrame server and the dynamic images are 
using the same port.
