Chapter 3: Configuration and Operation
Logos used by the ACO6800+ISCST must be created or saved in the .mg2 file
format, and initially stored on a micro-SD card that is inserted into the slot located
at the card edge of the module. The ACO6800+ISCST supports SanDisk,
LEXAR, and Kingston 1G and 2G microSD cards.The files must be loaded onto
the card directly at your PC workstation. (LogoCreator software is provided as a
utility to convert existing files to .mg2).

The files that you use as logos must be selected according to the video output
standard set on the ACO6800+ISCST (System > Operation Standard). When
the output standard changes on the module, the ACO6800+ISCST automatically
loads files that use the selected output standard.
Basic Steps to Installing Logo Files
If you are starting with existing graphics files, these basic steps are as follows:
1. Install the LogoCreator conversion software from the IconSoft Tools
CD-ROM.
2. Convert the logos to an .mg2 format.
3. Transfer the files to the microSD card directly from the PC.

All logos used by the ACO6800+ISCST must either be generated as .mg2 files or
converted to that format. A version of LogoCreator (located on the IconSoft Tools
CD-ROM) is provided with the manual for this purpose.
For best results, LogoCreator requires a PC with the following system
specifications:
• Intel Pentium III processor at 500 MHz or faster
• 512 MB or more of physical memory (RAM)
