Windows CE Board Support Package
A Board Support Package is required for creating own images with additional drivers.
This Board Support Package contains the Windows CE operating system drivers as source code. The development environment can be obtained from Microsoft.
The Linux Board Support Package contains the sources, documentation and configuration tool for selecting the components for the target. A precondition of the configuration tool is a Linux computer.
To enable the use of the ROM based Real-Time Kernel, the C Header Files and the documentation is available free of charge.
In addition, we suggest the purchase of the rcX Board Support Package. It contains drivers for functions such as a diagnostic serial channel over the USB interface.
The rcX Board Support Package together with the Object Code Protocol Stacks enable an easy implementation of the application.
