Setting up the base
Activating/deactivating the info
ticker
You can display text information from the
Internet (weather information etc.) that is set
for the screensaver Info Services as a scroll-
ing message in the idle display. The scrolling
message is shown in the bottom line of the
idle display (immediately above the display
keys). The end of one set of information and
beginning of the next are separated by
"+++".
If, for example, you have set the calendar to
be shown in the idle display, the information
ticker overwrites the last two lines (weeks) of
the calendar.
