6) |
How is DCS/CE loaded? |
| |
DCS/CE follows the Microsoft installation procedures required for Windows CE logo certification. DCS/CE is
shipped electronically or on diskette and is initially installed onto your companion desktop or laptop PC. If your
Windows CE-powered device is connected at the time of installation, DCS/CE will be automatically installed onto the
device. If a connection does not exist at the time of installation, DCS/CE will be automatically installed the next
time a connection is made.

Below is a table showing the names of files that may be deleted when the corresponding connector or emulator
is not required. Deleting unnecessary files will free up memory for other applications.

Notes:
-
ANSI-BBS is the default emulator. As such, this file should NOT be deleted.
-
The VT-Series and AT&T 605 emulation file (vtseries.dll) can be deleted ONLY
if the VT-Series AND AT&T 605 emulations are not needed. This file is used
by both the VT-Series and AT&T 605 emulations.
-
With only the ANSI emulation and the Telnet connector installed, the smallest achievable product size is:
- MIPS CPU: 1,184,508 bytes
- SH3 CPU: 1,007,868 bytes
NOTE: The MFCCE20.DLL file must be present for DCS/CE to operate. If it is not already installed
on your device, the DCS/CE installation program automatically installs it. The file size is:
- MIPS CPU: 517,632 bytes
- SH3 CPU: 364,544 bytes

I recieved an invalid serial number message when I entered the provided serial number
at the prompt. |
| |
When entering the serial number during installation into the Windows CE-powered device,
you MUST type the dashes between the groups of numbers.
