Chapter 3 Windows CE.NET
3.1 Introduction
The NP-610X series operator interface terminal is designed to serve on the Windows CE
platform. Windows CE .NET is the successor to Windows CE 3.0. Designed from the
ground up for the embedded marketplace, Windows CE .NET delivers a robust real-time
operating system for rapidly building the next generation of smart mobile and small
footprint devices. With a complete operating system feature set and end-to-end
development environment, Windows CE .NET contains everything you need to create a
custom Windows CE–based device that requires rich networking, hard real-time, and a
small footprint, as well as rich multimedia and Web browsing capabilities.
3.2 Utilities
There are several useful utilities built in the standard Windows CE OS of NP-610X:
3.2.1 Soft-Keyboard
The NP-610X is dedicated to the small-sized operator interface. It is often inconvenient
for users to attach a keyboard to such small machine. Thus, a software keyboard is
embedded in the standard Windows CE OS. Upon boot-up, a small keyboard icon will
appear on the status bar. Tap this icon by the stylus to activate/hide this Soft-keyboard.
