  1. 1 Copy your files into a ".sleep" folder at the root of the SD card. CrossPoint picks one at random each time.
  2. 2 Or, for a single fixed image, copy it to the card root as "sleep.bmp" or "sleep.pxc".
  3. 3 .pxc and .bmp files can be mixed in the same folder.
  4. 4 Choose Settings → Display → Sleep screen → Custom.

Keep dithering on. Non-dithered grayscale BMPs cause ghosting on CrossPoint 1.5.0.

Folders whose names start with a dot are hidden on macOS and Linux. Show hidden files to see them.
