Page 171 of the Crimson 2.0 manual for RedLion G3 HMI series talks about being able to display a photo/image as a primitive object. On the HMI G3 series that must use Crimson 2.0. The photo must be stored on the installed Compact Flash, using a command line utility program called "makepic". The manual mentions most of the steps required; but, like so many "instructions", the Devil is in the details.
I need a little help to launch this user program .. kind of a "tutorial" Because I'm not really good with Command Line processes. Yes. Crimson 2.0 is dated stuff, and Crimson 3.0 is awesome.. and it's very easy to use pictures on your HMI with C3 (been there done that
I'm new to C2 .. an' didn't appreciate what can happen if you purchase a RedLion G3 on eBay, without checking first if it can be configured with C3 ..DUH!.
I just need a little explanation of the below instructions, as a tutorial ... Thanks much, Regards, Michael
