Background 

 

A custom background image can be loaded and applied to dash pages. The Background tab 
allows management of any backgrounds that are loaded into the dash. Images can be loaded, 

removed and renamed here with the relevant buttons. Image sizes are displayed next to the 

file name. Total calibration size cannot exceed 4MB. Large files will take longer to program into 

the dash. 
 

 

 
Backgrounds can also be used to display custom layout features, gauge icons or logos.  

 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

     

 

 

 
 

 

*Note* 

Images must be 800x480 pixels in size and be in one of the following file formats: BMP, JPG, 
PNG. Generally, JPG images will have the smallest file size (often by a large degree) but may 

have a lower image sharpness, depending on the type of image.
