When installing a background of your choice, care needs to be taken to ensure that
the background does not adversely affect the visibility of the text on the phone
display. As a general rule, backgrounds should be light in shading for better
usability.
For SoundPoint IP 450, 550, 560, 650, and 670 phones:
• There are a number of default backgrounds, both solid color and pictures.
Both BMP and JPEG files are supported. You can also select the label color
for soft key and line key labels. Users can select which background and
label color appears on their phone.
You can modify the supported solid color and pictures backgrounds. For
example, you can add a gray solid color background or modify a picture
to one of your choice.
For Polycom VVX 1500 phones:
• You can select the pictures or designs displayed on the background. The
supported formats include JPEG, BMP, and PNG and the maximum size
is 800x480. A default picture is displayed when the phone starts up the
first time.
Users can select which background appears on their individual phones.
Users can also select a background from an image displayed by the digital
picture frame feature (refer to
Support for resolutions greater than 800x480 is inconsistent. Content may be
