E-EQ-VX7RG-D VX7 Reference Guide
Chapter 4 System Configuration
Introduction
There are several different aspects to the setup and configuration of the VX7. 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 VX7 computer may vary. The following sections provide a general
reference for the configuration of the VX7 and some of its optional features.
Windows CE .NET 4.2
For general use instruction, please refer to commercially available Windows CE
.NET user’s guides or the Windows CE .NET on-line Help application installed with
the VX7.
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
VX7 and its Windows CE .NET environment.
2.4 GHz Radio Configuration
All 2.4GHz 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 VX7, erasing any customer applied registry changes and
returning the VX7 to its factory settings.
