Chapter 6 Customizing the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone Creating Custom Background Images Configuring a Custom Phone Ring To create custom phone rings for the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone 7985, follow these steps: Procedure Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Create a PCM file for each custom ring (one ring per file). Ensure the PCM files comply with the format guidelines that are listed in the "PCM File Requirements for Custom Ring Types" section on page 6-3. Place the new PCM files that you created in the C:\Program Files\Cisco\ TFTPPath directory on the Cisco TFTP server for each Cisco Unified CallManager in your cluster. Use an text editor to edit the RingList.xml file. See the "RingList.xml File Format Requirements" section on page 6-2 for information about how to format this file and for a sample RingList.xml file. Save your modifications and close the RingList.xml file. To cache the new RingList.xml file, stop and start the TFTP service by using Cisco Unified 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 Custom 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: OL-8726-02 Cisco Unified IP Video Phone 7985G Administration Guide 6-4

Chapter 6
Customizing the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone
Creating Custom Background Images
Configuring a Custom Phone Ring
To create custom phone rings for the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone 7985, follow
these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Create a PCM file for each custom ring (one ring per file). Ensure the PCM files
comply with the format guidelines that are listed in the
“PCM File Requirements
for Custom Ring Types” section on page 6-3
.
Step 2
Place the new PCM files that you created in the C:\Program Files\Cisco\
TFTPPath directory on the Cisco TFTP server for each Cisco
Unified CallManager in your cluster.
Step 3
Use an text editor to edit the RingList.xml file. See the
“RingList.xml File Format
Requirements” section on page 6-2
for information about how to format this file
and for a sample RingList.xml file.
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 Unified 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 Custom 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:
