Step 4 Save your modifications and close the RingList.xml file.
Step 5 To cache the new RingList.xml file, stop and start the TFTP service by using
Cisco CallManager Serviceability or disable and re-enable the “Enable Caching
of Constant and Bin Files at Startup” TFTP service parameter (located in the
Advanced Service Parameters).
Creating Background Images
You can provide users with a choice of background images for the LCD screen on
their phones. Users can select a background image by choosing Settings > User
Preferences > Background Images on the phone.
The image choices that users see come from PNG images and an XML file (called
List.xml) that are stored on the TFTP server used by the phone. By storing your
own PNG files and editing the XML file on the TFTP server, you can designate
the background images from which users can choose. In this way, you can provide
custom images, such as your company logo.
The following sections describe how you can customize the background images
that are available at your site by creating your own PNG files and editing the
List.xml file:
• List.xml File Format Requirements, page 6-4.
• PNG File Requirements for Custom Background Images, page 6-5.
• Configuring a Background Image, page 6-6
List.xml File Format Requirements
The List.xml file defines an XML object that contains a list of background
images. The List.xml file is stored in the following folder on the TFTP server:
C:\Program Files\Cisco\TFTPPath\Desktops\320x196x4
