For Wallpapers

Attention: Mitel phones need to be loaded with the SIP firmware, not MiNet for these configs to work.

First you must format your image to fit the following requirements: 

  • 320x240 pixels (6867i/ 6920)
  • 480x272 pixels (6869i/ 6930)
  • 800x480 pixels (6873i/ 6940/ 6970)
  • 24 or 32-bit color depth
  • 1MB maximum file size
  • Both JPG and PNG files are supported (JPG recommended - faster loading time)
  • There should be no frame around the image 
     

In the configuration file for the device add the following configuration parameter: 

background image

Along with this configuration you must add a URL, supported URLs should appear this way: 
 

tftp://server/image.jpg
ftp://server/image.jpg
http://server/image.jpg
https://server/image.jpg


Example

Mitel config file
background image : http://192.168.0.22/pics/image.jpg

CallRevu Override Format:
background image="http://192.168.0.22/pics/image.jpg"

This example would load the image at http://192.168.0.22/pics/image.jpg and display it as the wallpaper of the device.
