Boot Logo Replacement

This instruction guides you through the procedure of replacing the Bootlogo using the Insyde UEFI/BIOS tool called H2OLRT (Logo Replacement Tool).

Please note that the logo replacement can only be done in the integrated EFI Shell.
Furthermore, this tool is only available on request, please contact support@tq-group.com.

Prerequisites

Prepare BIOS-Update-USB Stick and add the following components:

Replace Boot Logo via EFI Shell

The H2LRT (Logo Replacement Tool)generates a BIOS file that contains the desired Boot Logo instead of the TQ Logo.

H2OLRT-Sx64.efi –replogo:<SrcBIOSImageName> –logopath:<LogoImagePathName> -logoindex:<IndexNum> –logoconvert:<ConvertNum> –out:<OutBIOSImageName>

Example

H2OLRT-Sx64.efi Variable description

<SrcBIOSImageName>
BIOS file in which the logo should be replaced

<LogoImagePathName>
Path and name of the replacement picture

<IndexNum>
Default index, where the picture must be stored:

Module logoindex
TQMx60_70EB 4


<ConvertNum> :


<OutBIOSImageName>
path and name of the generated BIOS file


Boot from external BIOS

MB-COME6-2

X17
BIOS_DIS1# 1 2 GND


If there is no Jumper present on the BIOS_DIS1# or BOOT_SEL2_1V8# signal the module will load its BIOS from the internal SPI flash.
If there is a Jumper on the BIOS_DIS1# or BOOT_SEL2_1V8# signal (between signal and GND) the module loads its BIOS from the flash in the SPI socket of the carrier board.


Supported external SPI flash devices

Following external SPI flash devices are supported by the corresponding platform/module:

Platform/Module SPI flash device SPI flash vendor
TQMx60EB/
