Using the Launch Pad on VVX 1500 Phones
The Launch Pad on VVX 1500 phones is an optional feature that enables you to access local or web
applications, directories, and information feeds from your phone. Ask your system administrator if the
Launch Pad is enabled on your phone.
When the Launch Pad is enabled on your phone, your system administrator can customize the
applications you see. By default, the Launch Pad displays the following applications:
• Picture Frame—Displays your pictures stored on a USB flash drive.
Using the Picture Frame application, you can display your pictures as thumbnails, one-by-one, like
a slide show, or display just one picture. You can also use the Picture Frame application to set one
of your pictures as the background image on your phone.
• My Info Portal—Gives you access to a variety of information feeds, such as sports, news, weather,
stock, and traffic.
Your system administrator can also set up your phone so that you can view feeds from the idle screen, as
well as from the Launch Pad. When you view feeds from the Launch Pad or from the idle screen, your
phone is considered idle and a screen saver is displayed, if you have set up a screen saver.

Procedure

Open Applications
