General Windows CE 1 GENERAL The operating system is implemented in English on all MICRO PANEL devices with Windows CE®. Note: This documentation applies to MICRO PANEL devices which have the Windows® CE 3.0 operating system from image version 2.20.0 and Windows® CE 5.0 from image version 2.22.0. 1.1 1.1.1 STARTUP BEHAVIOR XV400 With all MICRO PANEL devices from image version 2.00 (see also System properties), the operating system is started from a PCMCIA or CompactFlash card.
Windows CE 1.1.2 General XV100 With all XV100 MICRO PANEL devices from image version 2.22 (see also System properties), the operating system is started from an internal memory or SD Flash card. The operating system is stored in the OS directory. If the startup is from the internal memory, the operating system is started from a linear memory area. If a different operating system in the internal memory was loaded into the OS directory, a copy of this OS is copied to the linear memory area.
General Windows CE After Windows CE is launched, the following functions are run if the CTRL/DOWNLOAD button is not pressed: 1. The bootloader searches for the AutoLaunch.inf file on the SD Flash card. If this file is present, the program is started under [AutoLaunchBoot]. See also chapter AutoLaunch. 2. The registry entries are transferred when the AUTOEXEC.REG file is found in the root directory of the boot device. See also chapter Autoexec.reg. 3. The bootloader also looks for the AUTOEXEC.
Windows CE General Example of an «Autoexec.bat» file: ECHO OFF REM ************************************************ REM Verify boot device, if parameter is not REM available, the boot device is StorageCard SET bootdev=StorageCard IF "%1"=="" GOTO START SET bootdev=%1 REM ************************************************ :START REM START Shortcut –p GRSW3.EXE START CeRemoteSvr.exe -h START GRSW3.EXE ECHO ON This example initially checks whether the pass parameter (%1) is set for the boot device.
General Windows CE The following MSDOS compatible commands are available: ATTRIB Shows file attributes or changes them. CALL Calls a batch program from another one. CD, CHDIR Changes the current directory or shows its name. CLS Clears the screen content. COPY Copies one or several files to another position. DATE Changes the set date or displays it. DEL Deletes one or several files. DIR Lists the files and subdirectories of a directory.
Windows CE 1.5 1.5.1 General CTRL/DOWNLOAD BUTTON XV400 The CONTROL button on the device has two different functions: 1. If the button is pressed on startup, the bootloader will list all directories and files on the Compact Flash card. This can be useful when analyzing problems. Windows CE is then started in the usual manner. 2. If the button is held down during the Windows CE startup (after the bootloader), the Autoexec.bat and Autoexec.reg files are not run.
General Windows CE The file system on the device essentially contains the following important directories: InternalStorage StorageCard StorageCard2 Windows Content of the internal memory Content of the PCMCIA, Compact Flash or SD Flash card Content of the second PCMCIA or Compact Flash or SD Flash card, if present Directory with the system files Note: All directories apart from «InternalStorage», «StorageCard» and «StorageCard2» are located in the working memory (RAM) and are re-created with every devic
Windows CE 1.7 General SHORTCUTS Shortcuts can be created on the Desktop for easier operation. As the MICRO PANEL does not have a persistent registry, (i.e. the registry is set according to the CE Kernel with every start), the shortcuts must be restored with every start. See also chapter Startup behavior. Shortcut or link files can be created with the SHORTCUT program. The program can be called in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file -- see also chapter Autoexec.bat.
General 1.8 Windows CE POWER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION In the event of a power supply failure, the NVSRAM (non-volatile SRAM) ensures that the data is saved. If the following dialog appears when the device is started, this means that the data in the NVSRAM could no longer be saved. This either indicates a hardware fault or the fact that a serious fault has occurred in Windows CE, which prevented saving. If this message is present, please contact your MICRO PANEL distributor.
Windows CE Ethernet 2 ETHERNET The Ethernet interface is implemented in compliance with the IEEE 802.3 (10/100BASE-T) standard. The network is implemented with shielded twisted-pair cables and shielded RJ45 plugs. The devices networked with the MICRO PANEL must also be provided with shielded connections. The twisted-pair cable selected for use in Ethernet networks must comply with the cable specifications with regard to cable length and transmission speed. See also specification to EIA/TIA 568 TSB-36.
Ethernet 2.1.1 Windows CE NAME RESOLUTION IN WINDOWS NETWORKS The name resolution is absolutely necessary in order to access enabled resources (drives, directories, printers) of a computer with the Windows operating system. Access via IP addresses is not supported by Windows CE. The name resolution under Windows CE is executed via the NetBios name (UDP, Port 137) service.
Windows CE • Ethernet The net use command connects or disconnects the MICRO PANEL with an enabled resource. The connection of resources is not absolutely necessary, but is nevertheless recommended. This has the advantage that access from the application is always the same, irrespective of the computer, directory or printer name.
Printing Windows CE 3 PRINTING Different interfaces are provided for use as a printer terminal. These are the Ethernet interface, the parallel interface and the serial interface. Windows CE currently contains the following printer drivers: Printer types *: PCL Deskjet PCL Laser HP Laserjet HP Color Laserjet HP Business Inkjet HP Deskjet 9xx HP Deskjet 61xx HP Photosmart 7xxx HP Photosmart 1xx Printer driver pcl.dll emprint.dll * These are printer names which are used for printer selection. 3.
Windows CE 3.2 Printing PARALLEL INTERFACE Some MICRO PANEL devices are provided with a parallel printer interface which can be used for connecting the printer. Note: Only printers that support the PCL protocol can currently be connected. PCL is a language developed by HP® which, however, is also supported by other printer manufacturers. 3.3 SERIAL INTERFACE The serial port can also be used for connecting the printer. Two different modes are always available for printing via the serial port.
