•
The Windows CE .NET image resides in a hidden partition and includes a
copy of the default system registry.
•
The MICROS CAL (Client Application Loader) resides on the DOC in the
\McrsCAL folder. Through a registry setting, the CAL starts each time the
WS4 starts.
•
The MICROS SAL (Serial Application Loader) resides on the DOC in a
folder called \McrsSAL. This utility supports a RS422 serial interface to
the 8700 and 9700 POS Applications when the WS4 replaces the UWS/3.
•
The WS4 API is implemented as a DLL file and allows POS Applications
to access hardware such as the cash drawers, mag stripe reader, and the
various customer display options.
•
The WS4 Drivers consists of a collection of DLL files that provide access
to WS4 hardware including the LCD, network, power button, and the
persistent registry.
Compact Flash (CF) Card
The Compact Flash (CF) Card represents the removable component of the
WS4 mass storage solution. Accessed from the IO panel, the device is installed
at the factory but contains no data. In addition the CF card must be installed in
order for the workstation to boot.
A 64M device is currently installed, and larger sizes may be used in the future.
Windows CE views the card as a Windows file system. In My Computer, it
appears as '\CF'.
Figure 1-14 shows the contents after the workstation has been installed and
configured.
