Use Personal Photos As Screen Savers - Polycom VVX 101 Series User Manual

Use Personal Photos as Screen Savers

On VVX 401/411, 500/501, 600/601, and 1500 phones, you can enable your phone to display your personal
photos as a screen saver. To set up a screen saver of your pictures, you need to set up certain screen saver
settings, place your pictures on a USB flash drive, and attach the USB flash drive to the phone.
The pictures you use must have the following file type and size properties:
● File type: BMP, JPEG, or PNG
● Maximum size: 9999 x 9999 pixels
The phone can only display the photos as your screen saver when the USB flash drive is attached to the
phone.
You can set up your phone to use a single picture to display or have all pictures display in slide-show style.
This is an alternative to setting up a screen saver, and it automatically starts each time your phone is idle a
certain amount of time.
