Graphics; Example 11 - Creating A Movie Marquee - Adaptive BETAbrite 1036 Serie Manual De Programación

November 4, 2003
In addition to pre-programmed or "canned" graphics (see "Graphics
available" on page 53), you can create your own custom graphics using
DOTS files.
You can display a DOTS graphic that you create either by itself or
with text.
NOTE: After you create a DOTS graphic, to display it on your sign,
the DOTS graphic must be placed in a text file — even if you
just want to display the graphic all by itself.
