Which images can be displayed?
Images can be dragged and dropped directly from Windows Explorer into the startEPA.exe simulator window. Then click on "Download" to load the displayed content into the display. This takes approx. 20 seconds; do not unplug while the GREEN LED is flashing!
JPG, PNG and GIF files are automatically converted and displayed. It is best to use images in black and white or with reddish content (the display can show the colors white, black and red). The simulator tool automatically converts the existing resolution and colors in the best possible way.
