CHAPTER 3 Windows CE.NET on the PCM-7130 This chapter details the Windows CE.NET operating system on the PCM7130. Sections include: • Starting PCM-7130 • Windows CE.NET utility on the PCM-7130 • PCM-7130 Networking • Intel Persistent Storage Manager(IPSM) • Application Program Development • Advantech Windows CE.
Chapter 3 Windows CE on the PCM-7130 3.1 Introduction The PCM-7130 is a single board platform that integrates complete I/O and Windows CE.NET operating system. The Windows CE is a compact OS that occupies less storage space or system resources compared with other operating systems such as Windows NT or Windows XP. By its modular nature, it is possible to choose those functions that are useful for specific application. Not only reducing the system resources required, it also reduces start-up time.
Figure 3.2: Soft-keyboard 3.2.2 Regflash The utility "Regflash" is a convenient tool to save, overwrite or delete registry data, as well as erase the content of IPSM folder. From the Windows CE status bar, tap "Start/Run". Use the soft-keyboard to type "regflash" command in the command text box and press "OK". Note: Please be careful using this utility "Regflash". This utility is able to overwrite all registry data.
Figure 3.3: Regflash It is important to keep the power normal during "Save to Flash" process. If the power break down during the registry saving process, then the registry would be lost and corrupt. On the next time you turn on PCM-7130, the system would load the default registry setting in the Windows CE image file 3.2.3 System Configurator Double click the icon of System Configurator on the desktop to open the PCM-7130 utility.
3.2.3.2 Touchscreen The Touchscreen page provides the calibration function. Click the "calibration" button, the "Stylus Properties" windows would appear. Then click "calibrate" button in the Advantech Touchscreen Properties window to enter calibration process. In the calibration process, user taps on the center of the target on the screen then the target will move to the next position.
Figure 3.6: Display controls The lowest block is “Display Mode”.
Figure 3.7: Display mode setting Note: 1. VGA TFT LCD and CRT display is the default setting of the PCM-7130. This will facilitate users to develop AP or products if the LCD has not been determined. However, it is recommend to change the display mode because 8 bpp color depth may not be appreciated for most users. 2. As new display mode is set, the PCM-7130 takes reset or reboot to activate new setting. 3.2.3.
The RTC TIME region of the page shows the time of watchdog timer (DS1670) and system time. The user can press "Start" button to show the current time. Figure 3.8: Watchdog timer 3.2.3.
Figure 3.9: Default GPIO settings 3.2.3.6 DIO There are 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs. This DIO page of the System Configurator can show their status. When the “Start” button is pressed, the 8 DI will try to retrieve external inputs, then those pins having positive inputs will mark respective radial buttons inside the “Digital Input Status” block, others will make their radial buttons empty.
3.2.3.7 Miscellaneous The Misc page provides several functions as described below. The "Registry" block provides registry save and registry view function. The “A. Sync” button invokes ActiveSync to the host computer. The "reset" button manually resets the keyboard/mouse for hot-plug keyboard/mouse. The "HTTP Server Root" block was used to specify the root directory of http server.
Figure 3.12: Reboot the system 3.2.5 Startup execution The PCM-7130 has a useful function call "Startup execution". After the system boot up, the startup execution function would automatically perform. This function is useful for control system to do the initialization processes or some other programs. In PCM-7130, there are two ways to perform "Starup" function. Method 1: Step1: Create "startup" directory in Compact Flash or in "\IPSM\".
Example: Create "Startup.ini" in "\IPSM\Startup" directory and reboot the system. The content of startup.ini was listed below: \windows\tty.exe \windows\registry.exe After the system reboot, "\windows\ tty.exe" and "\windows\ registry.exe" would be executed automatically. Be sure that the two methods are independent, it means they can be used simultaneously. 3.2.6 Safemode PCM-7130 utilities allow user to alter registry setting, and save it by either "regflash.
3.3 PCM-7130 Networking 3.3.1 Networking via Ethernet The PCM-7130 is equipped with one 10Base-T Ethernet controller. To utilize it, change the device name when the PCM-7130 is first turned on. 1. Click "Start/Settings/Control Panel" 2. Double click "Network and Dial-up Connections" 3. This window will display all available connections. Right-click the connection icon users could disable, rename or modify IP addresses. 4. If the PCM-7130 is a node of a LAN with DHCP servers, it is now available. 5.
3.3.2 Networking via serial port or USB cable The PCM-7130 with built-in Windows CE supports serial and USB port connection to host computers. The host computer must install the Microsoft ActiveSync service offered by Microsoft. Use a null modem cable bundled with the PCM-7130 to connect the serial ports of the host computer and the PCM-7130. Or use the USB cable to connect the USB ports of them. Then activate ActiveSync service on the host computer.
8. If the ActiveSync service on the host PC has been activated, the above seven steps will make the PCM-7130 automatically try to connect the host, ;otherwise you can invoke "\windows\reglog.exe" to do the activesync connection. 3.3.3 Networking via PPP The PCM-7130 with built-in Windows CE supports PPP protocol. To setup and utilize it, follow the steps below: 1. Click "Start/Settings/Network and Dial-up Connections” 2. Make a new connection.
3.3.4 Web browser The PCM-7130 built-in Windows CE OS includes IESample. It can be used to browse web pages on World Wide Web via LAN or PPP. 3.4 Intel Persistent Storage Manger (IPSM) 3.4.1 Introduction to Intel Persistent Storage Manger Intel Persistent Storage Manager was designed and developed specifically as an enhancement to Microsoft Windows CE operating systems. PSM eliminates extra disk-like storage such as storage cards, redundant RAM and ROM. 3.4.
3.5 Application Program Development The PCM-7130 is bundled with built-in Windows CE operating system. In real applications users need to execute various application programs on it. However, unlike its other family the Windows CE is a hardwaredependent operating system. That is to say, Windows CE application programs are only portable in the source code level. Users must rebuild the runtime file for a different Windows CE platform even though the source code may not be changed at all. 3.5.
AP Source Code ADV_ARM Socer-320 SDK eMbedded Visual Tools AP Runtime Figure 3.13: Flow-chart Windows CE runtime 3.5.3 Running your application programs Use the Activesync function to put your application programs onto the PCM-7130 platform (reference 3.3). Users can run your application with startup execution (reference 3.2.5). 3.5.4 WDT Modules PCM-7130 is targeted to be the embedded device for web-enabled and data-acquisition systems. It is built-in with Watchdog timer and LCD onoff control.
BOOL DeviceIoControl( HANDLE hDevice, DWORD dwIoControlCode, LPVOID lpInBuffer, DWORD nInBufferSize, LPVOID lpOutBuffer, DWORD nOutBufferSize, LPDWORD lpBytesReturned, LPOVERLAPPED lpOverlapped ); - Parameters hDevice [in] Handle to the device that is to perform the operation. Call the CreateFile function to obtain a device handle. dwIoControlCode [in] Specifies the control code for the operation.
[out] Long pointer to a variable that receives the size, in bytes, of the data stored into the buffer pointed to by lpOutBuffer. The lpBytesReturned parameter cannot be NULL. Even when an operation produces no output data, and lpOutBuffer can be NULL, the DeviceIoControl function makes use of the variable pointed to by lpBytesReturned. After such an operation, the value of the variable is without meaning. lpOverlapped [in] Ignored; set to NULL. - Return Values Nonzero indicates success.
4. IOCTL_SET_WDTPERIOD (0x1004): lpInBuffer : the DWORD pointer to your Watchdog time setting. Its vlaue should be greater 1000. The unit is mini-second. If your application open the WDT driver, the default Watchdog Time is set to 5000 mini-seconds. nInBufferSize:.unused. lpOutBuffer: unused. nOutBufferSize: unused. 5. IOCTL_ACCESS_WDT (0x1005): Your application must trigger the Watchdog once during the your Watchdog timer period.
Examples: #define IOCTL_ENABLE_WDT 0x1001 #define IOCTL_DISABLE_WDT 0x1002 #define IOCTL_GET_WDTPERIOD 0x1003 #define IOCTL_SET_WDTPERIOD 0x1004 #define IOCTL_ACCESS_WDT 0x1005 #define IOCTL_GET_SCREENOFFTIME 0x1006 #define IOCTL_SET_SCREENOFFTIME 0x1007 HANDLE m_hWDT=NULL; TCHAR szClassName[60]; ...
3.5.5 DIO Modules PCM-7130 has 8 DI(Digital Input), 8 DO(Digital Output). Users can access these resources by writing windows programs with WIN32 API. PCM-7130 is built-in the DIO driver to allow users accessing DI and DO values. Users should use WIN32 APIs to access them. The driver name is "DIO1:". The programmers must open this driver before using the resources. Then programmers could use DeviceIOControl functions to access DO and DI values.
g_hDIO = CreateFile(szClassName, GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL); if ( g_hDIO == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE ) { DebugMsg(CString("DIO driver fail")); return; } ... // Get the DO 2 value into nV DWORD dwTemp; DWORD nDO = 2; int nV; DeviceIoControl(g_hDIO, IOCTL_GET_DO, (LPVOID)&nDO, 4, (LPVOID)&nV, 4, &dwTemp, NULL); CloseHandle(g_hDIO); 3.6 Advantech Windows CE.
