By default, you must manually run your finished
project on the Windows Embedded device, either from your PC by
using the Project tab of the
Remote Management dialog (see
above) or on the device itself by clicking the Start button in the Remote Agent dialog.
However, you can configure the Windows Embedded
device to automatically run a specified project. To do this, edit
the file
CEServer.ini on the WIndows
CE device to include the following setting:
[Setup]
AppName=Applicaion Path
Where
project_name is the location of the
IWS project files
on the Windows Embedded device. For example:
[Setup]
AppName=\Harddisk\Test\CEserverTest
The next time the Windows Embedded device boots up and
opens the Remote Agent dialog
(CEServer.exe), it will read this
setting and automatically run the specified project.
There are three ways to edit the
CEServer.ini file:
- Edit the file directly on the Windows Embedded
device using an attached keyboard or the touchscreen keypad. The
file should be located in the same directory as the CEServer.exe file, which was installed earlier.
- Mount the Windows Embedded device as a shared volume
on your PC and edit the file there.
- Edit the file in the […]\InduSoft Web Studio
v7.0\Redist
directory before you install the system files
on the Windows Embedded device.
CAUTION:
This last method changes the default copy
of
CEServer.ini that is included
with
IWS. Use this
method only if:
- You back up the file before editing it;
- You are installing the same system files on
multiple, identical Windows Embedded devices; and
- You already know the location (file path) of the
IWS project files
on the device (perhaps by using the normal installation method on a
test device).
