Arcom's
Socket 370 OLYMPUS board Development Kit for Windows CE .NET 4.1
includes a pre-built Windows CE .NET image pre-loaded onto a 32Mbyte
CompactFlash card - that means you do not need to use Microsoft
Platform Builder to create a working operating system. The operating
system image offers a comprehensive set of components for the widest
selection of multimedia applications. The Windows CE .NET image is
approximately 16Mbytes, leaving half the CompactFlash card for your
application space. The Development Kit includes the OLYMPUS embedded
PC single board computer fitted with a 1GHz Intel PIII processor
and 256Mbytes of SDRAM. We have made it easy to save time and achieve
rapid application development using Windows CE .NET 4.1 by including a
full set of drivers, Microsoft's eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 CD and all
the cables to connect to your host system. A Windows CE .NET 4.1 BSP
is available on request.
All
you have to do is:
Step 1 Build
your application software
Step 2 Download
to the CompactFlash card
Step 3 Debug and
watch your application run
