5.2 Pocket PC Compatibility
The 8525/8530 supports the AYGShell API set that allows PocketPC-compatible
applications to run on the vehicle-mount. Microsoft® Windows® CE.NET 4.2 is
designed to include application programming interface (API) compatibility support
for the Microsoft Windows Powered Pocket PC 2002 shell in 8525/8530s running
Windows® CE.NET 4.2.
The website listed below describes the APIs exposed through AYGShell and the

5.3 The Control Panel
The Windows CE .NET Control Panel provides a group of icons through which you
can set a variety of system-wide properties, such as mouse sensitivity, network
configuration and the desktop color scheme.
Note: If you are uncertain how to move around a dialog box and make selec-
tions, review “Using A Dialog Box” on page 66.

applications stored in the Startup folder start up immediately.
