Screen Designer screens, known as Layouts (file type .lay) can be created in the Screen
Designer software on your PC and then loaded onto the recorder. This can be done via
Compact Flash or USB transfer. Templates created in Screen Designer can also be loaded
into the recorder, added to a recorder screen or screens and displayed. Refer to the Screen
Designer manual for further details.
For layouts to be loaded into the recorder Custom Screens must be enabled as a Firmware
option. See "Section 7: Firmware Options" on page 201.
It is recommended to save Screen Designer layouts directly from the software onto a Com-
pact Flash or USB key. This will contain all the files required for loading the layout into the
recorder. If the Screen Designer layout is saved to another location before being transferred
onto removable media, ensure that both the .bcf and .lay files are copied over. A warning
message will appear if the .bcf file is missing.
