Displaying Custom Mobile Device Icons
The Console supports custom mobile device icons that are sent from the
mobile device. There two device images are displayed: a small icon appears in
the Mobile Device Inventory tab next to the name of the mobile device and a
larger icon appears in the Mobile Device Details window.
Because the image data is transferred from the mobile device to the Mobile
Device Server, to the Enterprise Server and finally to the Console, there may
be a temporary delay in the display of the device images. No device images
will display until the icons are available at the Console. Once the icons
become available, they will display the next time the inventory list is loaded
or refreshed. The icons will display in the Mobile Device Details dialog box the
next time it opens.
Enablers that support this must make two icons available to the Console. The
large icon must be a .png image. It is recommended that the small icon be a
.png image as well. For more information about custom device icons, refer
to Using Custom Device Icons in Avalanche, located on the Wavelink web site.
