Microsoft Windows CE.NET
TM
is the operating system for the QuickPanel View
Keypad. It is a full 32-bit O/S with a graphical user interface. This operating system
is finding widespread application in hand-held PCs and embedded HMIs, such as
the QuickPanel View Keypad. The familiar look and feel of Windows CE shortens
the learning curve for users having experience with Windows
95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP. From a software developer’s perspective, the CE
environment is a subset of the WIN32 application programming interface,
simplifying the porting of existing software from other versions of Windows.
The QuickPanel View Keypad operating system is stored in an 16 MB block of
FLASH memory and copied to a block of DRAM for execution. The operating
system starts automatically following a power-up or reset of the QuickPanel View
Keypad.
