How do I Import Icons into my Vantage Lite?
You must have graphics/icons stored on your USB Flash Drive or SD card in order to import them to your device. Your device will import most of the graphics files that Windows® will support.
1. Plug your USB drive or SD card into your device.
2. Go to the Toolbox and open the TRANSFER MEMORY MENU.
3. Select Import Icons.
4. You see a list of all the graphics/icons stored on your USB drive or SD card. Select the ones that you want to import, or use Select All. Select OK.
5. You see the imported graphic and an option to change the name. You can also change the Aspect Ratio. We suggest you leave this set to YES. When you are ready, select OK.
6. You see the Icon Category Page(s).
Your device automatically places the graphic in an IMPORTS category folder. If you want the graphic available in another Category, select the Category. If you just want to keep the graphic in the IMPORTS folder, select Cancel to exit the Category Page.
7. You see the TRANSFER MEMORY MENU. Select OK or Cancel to exit.
From now on, when you are in the Change Icon - Category Page, you will be able to use the imported icons in your IMPORTS folder.
Deleting Imported Icons from your Vantage Lite:
You can simply delete imported icons from your device in any programming screen that has the option to Change Icon. The example below is through Modify Page:
1. In your Toolbox, select Modify Page and select any page. It doesn't matter what page you select since you will not be saving the changes to the page, only deleting your imported icons.
2. Select any key on this page. Again, it doesn't matter what key you select.
3. Choose the Change Icon key in the lower right corner of you screen.
4. Select More Items in the lower right then find the Imports category.
5. You will now see the icons that have been previously imported. In the lower right you will see the key that says Delete Icon. Select this key, then choose the Imported Icon you wish to delete.
A yellow box will appear asking if you want to Delete this Icon. If you want to Delete this Icon select Yes. If you have changed your mind, select No.
6. To delete more icons, repeat step 5. When finished select Cancel twice to exit.
Important Note: If a flash drive is not being recognized by the device, you may need to reset the device by holding down the I/O button for 15 seconds then try the transfer again. If the flash drive is still not recognized, make sure you have any files on the flash drive backed up on the computer then check to see if the flash drive is formatted in a FAT 32 format. This can be done on a computer by opening My Computer and right clicking the removable drive. Now click FORMAT which will open a window where you can select FAT 32 under the FILE SYSTEM. Select START which will begin the format process. When finished, eject the flash drive and try the transfer again. If still no luck, try another flash drive.
