Description
Platform

Platform
folder.
Application
Contains the files in the
Application
folder.
Windows CE
Contains the operating system for the mobile computer.
Monitor

Splash Screen

Note: Splash screens are generated from .bmp images and must be less than or equal to 240
pixels wide and 296 pixels deep. For color screens the color depth must be 8 bpp. Note: 8 bits
per pixel only applies to splash screen images. Once Windows CE is running, the color density
is 16 bits per pixel.
Power Micro
The Power Micro is a small computer contained within the mobile computer that controls
several system resources. In the unlikely event that the Power Micro Firmware needs updating,
selecting this item allows the device to be programmed.
Partition Table
Contains the partition information for all other partitions.
Note: The partition table should never need changing unless the sizes of the platform and
application images are changed within TCM. If this is done, then the new partition table should
be loaded first, followed by both platform and application in any order.
Command File
Select to load a command file. A command file is a file that allows you to automatically load a
number of partitions in a batch process.
System Reset
Selecting this item provides a simple method to exit IPL and to boot the operating system.
Auto Select
Selecting this item allows one or more files to be downloaded without having to manually select
the destination. (The content of the files being downloaded automatically directs the file to the
correct destination.) For technical reasons, Auto Select cannot be used to download Monitor,
Power Micro, or Partition Table. These items must be specifically selected.
