Introduction

There are several different aspects to the setup and configuration of the VX3X. Many of the setup
and configuration settings are dependent upon the optional features such as hardware and software
installed on the unit. The examples found in this chapter are to be used as examples only, the
configuration of your specific VX3X computer may vary. The following sections provide a
general reference for the configuration of the VX3X and some of its optional features.
Your VX3X operating system may be Windows CE .NET 4.2 or Windows CE 5.0. The VX3X
operating system is displayed on the Desktop as Windows CE .NET or Windows CE. This is the
factory default value for the Desktop Display Background.
This chapter presents information and procedures for Windows CE .NET 4.2 only. Windows CE
5.0 information and procedures are contained in Chapter 3, "System Configuration".

Windows CE .NET 4.2 Operating System

This chapter's contents assume the system administrator is familiar with Microsoft Windows
options and capabilities loaded on most standard Windows computers.
Therefore, the sections that follow describe only those Windows capabilities that are unique to the
VX3X and its Windows CE environment.

Wireless Network Configuration

All radio configuration is included in Chapter 5, "Wireless Network Configuration".

Warmboot

A warmboot reboots the computer without erasing any registry data. However, any applications
installed to RAM are lost, as is all data in RAM. This happens because the operating system is
stored on the flash drive, but must be loaded into RAM to run.
All registry configurations are automatically preserved. Any applications stored as .CAB files in
the System directory and configured in the registry to persist are reinstalled on boot up by the
Launch utility.

Coldboot

A coldboot reboots the computer, erases all registry data and returns the computer to factory
default settings. In order to be preserved, applications and data must be stored in the System
folder. Registry information is not preserved. Only factory default applications and drivers stored
as .CAB files in the System directory are loaded by Launch.
A cold boot is initiated by running the Coldboot application in the \Windows directory. This
application automatically cold boots the VX3X, erasing any customer applied registry changes
and returning the VX3X to its factory settings.
