Question - Custom Startup Screen, Bitmap Files

[dapaq2]

KPG111 within the programming software... Optional Features-> Common Page 2-> Power On-> Custom Start Up Screen-> Bitmap File. I am seeing a logo displayed in the small box. I like the logo and would like to make a backup copy of but do NOT have the ORIGINAL Bitmap file. I only have what is in the .dat file, does anyone know if there is anyway to extract the bitmap file from this .dat file and put it a copy onto my computer?

Thank you,
Doug

basically it was a bitmap image of the NS logo with the stallion head.
I made a replacement for him.


RR wont allow it to be uploaded as a bmp.
I uploaded the jpeg of it however.

Making bmp for nx-x00 series radios:

Bitmap File

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bitmap File allows you to select a file name in the bitmap format which will appear on the transceiver LCD for 2 seconds during power-up.

Range:
File name with a maximum of 20 alphanumeric characters having an extension of ".bmp".

Default:
Blank

Note:

A monochrome image with a maximum of 48 pixels (height) x 120 pixels (wide) (NX-200/ NX-200G/ NX-203/ NX-210/ NX-210G/ NX-300/ NX-300G/ NX-303/ NX-410 and NX-411 only) or 24 pixels (height) x 132 pixels (wide) (NX-700/ NX-700H/ NX-800/ NX-800H/ NX-900 and NX-901 only) can be preconfigured for the transceiver.
The selected image will be stored along with the KPG-111DN data file.
Unchecking the Custom Start-up Screen checkbox disables Bitmap File.
Changing a model name from NX-200/ NX-200G/ NX-203/ NX-210/ NX-210G/ NX-300/ NX-300G/ NX-303/ NX-410/ NX-411/ NX-700/ NX-700H/ NX-800/ NX-800H/ NX-900/ NX-901 or vice versa automatically clears configuration for Bitmap File.
This function can be configured for a transceiver having firmware version 1.11 or later.

There is no manual on how to do these, you have to be computer savy and know how to work MS Paint,
and trial and error, size HAS TO MATCH or 111, D1, D3 or any of the other KPG programs that allow you to make you own startups.

Have Fun!

do it in paint brush, but you need to be patient, to you must know the bitmap size of the radio 1st, then resize your logo and save it .bmp
if you dont know how to do it just message me.. i made already your logo but i cannot attach file anyway just send me a message i will send it you..

As mentioned above, set your bitmap image to the exact pixel dimensions for the model display used. Convert it to monochrome (1 bit). There should be no color or grayscale in the image.

I took your jpeg and converted it. KPG-111D took it just fine.

same in portable
