Abstract

A method provides pre-rendered information messages for display by a peripheral display unit connected to a base station over a data link. The method involves detecting that a data connection between the base station and the peripheral display unit is available, sending pre-rendered information messages from the base station to the peripheral display unit, and storing the pre-rendered information messages at the peripheral display unit for display in response to a status detected at the peripheral display unit. The base station may perform the pre-rendering of information messages in response to variation in configuration information relating to the peripheral display unit. The pre-rendered information messages may be paired with peripheral display unit statuses and the peripheral display unit may be configured so that, in the event that a particular status is detected, the corresponding pre-rendered information message is displayed without requiring data transmission from the base station.
