    - Help: Reinstall eVC4.00 + sp2/3 + PPC 2003 SDK failed Hi, I have developed some applications with eVC4 and PPC 2003 SDK several months ago. My computer is DELL with preinstalled WinXP. I had installed eVC4.00 + sp2/3 + PPC SDK 2003, and made some apps for my DELL PDA. But last week My computer was updated from net. Then I could not build my apps since then. Then I removeds and reinstalled eVC4.00 + sp2/3 + PPC SDK 2003 several times. The result is the same. I can't find WCE PPC 2003 App / WCE PPC 2003 MFC App in the File->New->Projects Tab, and my old apps can't be successfully compiled. But with WS2003 I can still use the PPC2003 emulator. Anyone could help me to resolve this problem please. Thanks. wzl Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91656

    - changes of SDIO driver from OzoneUpdate to Magneto hi~ I am developer of PPC currently working on driver porting from Ozone update to Magneto with same h/w device. the code(BSP) I have was working well with OzoneUpdate. what I want to know is about SDIO driver part. We have used Bsquare sdio driver before but I heard that Magneto will support SDIO driver. If I want to use MS sdio Stack , should I just simply delete previouse SDIO driver code ? is there anything else I have to do? Please kindly give me some advice....

    - IR and UART Hello, I am working on an IR remote but I have a few questions about the hardware involved and IR (raw) in general. My understanding of the UART is this: o All serial data goes through the UART. There is no way around this since it is the last step before actually sending the data out through the serial port. o The UART will automatically append start, stop and parity bits when sending and remove them on incoming data. This is invisible to the user and causes no problems assuming both sender and receiver use UART. o The data in transit is not the actual bit representation of the data but is in fact the data plus the UART bits. â?¢ Does all IR data go through the UART? I assume it does since itâ??s a serial device but I am not sure. â?¢ Can I get around the UART either by disabling it or just bypassing it all together? I do not want it to â??helpâ?? me in any way. I want to send out a specific byte without any UART bits. â?¢ If I am receiving an IR code from a remote the data received is not the actual data sent. This is due to two things: (1) the UART has already handled the data and removed the bits it thought were start, stop and parity; and (2) if the UART is waiting for a start bit and one never comes, then the UART will continue waiting for a start bit and ignore the data it receives. This is my general conception of how the UART works. I know this is probably flawed in a few areas but thatâ??s why I am posting here. Please correct me and share any good resources that would help me get a better understanding of how IR communications work. Now, hereâ??re some general IR questions and ones related to the remote. I am using VITOâ??s Oscilloscope to view the IR code from the remote as well as viewing any bytes I send. â?¢ One finding is that if I send 0x0B VITO receives 0xF6 o FIRE BYTE: 0x0B = 00001011 = |____|Â¯|_|Â¯Â¯| o SENT BYTE: 0xF6 = 11110110 = |Â¯Â¯Â¯Â¯|_|Â¯|__| â?¢ I saw something along these lines in an IrDA doc as well. Does anyone have any information on creating an IR remote? I know devices without a CIR LED arenâ??t designed to function as such but I still would like any input you can provide. However, the first step is understanding the UART and how the data is handled. Thank you, Kyle Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91654

    - How can I set timezone info. on PPC? Hi, all. I am trying to set timezone programmatically. First, I get the timezoneinformation through POOM, IPOutlookApp::GetTimezoneInformationFromIndex. By this way, I can get the "TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION" structure filled with timezone info. Next, "SetTimeZoneInformaton()" API is used for setting timezone. But, It is seem that some timezone info missed. If set the timezone GMT+8 Taipei(index : 220) and excute ppc clock on today screen, we can see the GMT+8 Beijing(index : 210). my code like this, ... hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_Application, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, IID_IPOutlookApp, (LPVOID*)&g_polApp); if(FAILED(hr)) return FALSE; hr = g_polApp->Logon(NULL); if(FAILED(hr)) return FALSE; g_polApp->GetTimeZoneInformationFromIndex(220, &tzinfo); g_polApp->SysFreeString(pwszVersion); SetTimeZoneInformation(&tzinfo); g_polApp->Logoff(); g_polApp->Release(); How can I set the all timezoneinformation right? thanks.

    - System.NotSupportedException - on F5 debug but not on CTRL-F5 I built an application that works 100% ok when I run it in debug mode but with CTRL-F5. I changed to deploy and get the System.NotSupportedException message. I ALSO get the error when I run in debug mode with F5 (not CTRL-F5). Here is a partial piece of code: using System; using System.Drawing; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Data; using System.Data.SqlServerCe; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; namespace NJ5J_CarLog_PocketPC { public class formCarLog : System.Windows.Forms.Form { public string wrkMaximumMileageStart = "9999991.0"; public string wrkMaximumMileageEnd = "9999999.9"; public decimal maximumMileageStart = 0; public decimal maximumMileageEnd = 0; public formCarLog() { InitializeComponent(); maximumMileageStart = System.Convert.ToDecimal(wrkMaximumMileageStart.ToString()); The last instruction above is what gives the exception. I found another solution on this newsgroup and tried Parse() but it also gives the exception. Is there a namespace I am omitting? The MSDN help shows that this is supported in the .Net Compact Framework. Thanks in advance, Carl Perkins Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91640

    - Pocket PC vs. Pocket PC Phone Edition From a development standpoint is there any real difference between a device running Pocket PC and Pocket PC Phone Edition (other than the obvious cell phone capability)? Also, more of a market question. Is Pocket PC Phone Edition going to eventually replace the WinCE Smartphone system?

The data that I need to send is simple plain ascii characters ie: the string "12456" padded with ASCII Start of Header (1 hex) at the start of the data and ASCII End of Text at the end of the data. Has anyone done this before, and if so has anyone got a code sample I could look at or maybe a goo hyperlink. Many thanks Joe Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91606

Is there any way to avoid or better stop such forceful behavior of the TODAY SCREEN ? Thanks in advance. Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91554

    - Using Platform Builder libs Hi, I'm currently developing an application for PPC 2003. My problem is that I would like to use one of the .lib files included in Platform Builder 4.2. I have downloaded the trial version of PB and as I interpret the EULA, I'm not allowed to link the lib file into my program if I intend to distribute it comersially. I guess my question is this: If I purchase the full license for Platform Builder 4.2, am I then allowed to use lib files included in the PB for comersial use? regards Johan Haren Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710.

    - Scrollbars on inputforms Hi, We're making some input forms on a PPC 2003 SE, using VB.Net... But we ran into some trouble when the forms started getting larger than the screen. We are now using the VScrollBar class, and to scroll, we put all the input-fields on a panel. So when the user scrolls, the panel's Top-property is set, so that it moves off the screen. This works obviously, but not nearly how it should be done i guess.... Can anyone help me out on how to do this properly?? regards, Christian Berkhout Iv-Software BV The Netherlands Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91542

    - sync/recharger port Hi Pocket PC gurus, I am looking at a project that will be using pocket PC, but the other end will be either a serial link or a USB link. There are many converter cables for converting from sync/recharger port to serial/USB, but none for the SDIO port. So my question is, will I be able to use the recharge/sync port from my program?

    - 5-way Nav Control .NET CF API? How does one receive notification of a button event from the 5-way Nav control on a PDA with .NET Compact Framework? Tag: Using COM port on HP iPAQ 1710. Tag: 91537

I want to make a program for my Pocket PC that can send/recive data(512B)
to/from a MCU through the COM1 port (serial port).
I am using Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 with Microsoft Pocket PC 2003
SDK (emulator) to make the program on the PPC.
I am also making the program om the MCU, so I conroll both programs.

Here is what I want the program on the Pocet PC to do:

-Open the COM port
-Send data to MCU
-Recive data from MCU
-Close COM port

Do you think that it is ok to only use the Rx and Tx lines? Does anyone know
what RS232 Standard the HP use, and what voltage it operate with.
I don't want to use hardware handshaking. I thinking of making a rutine in
the program to check that the data is sent/received correct.

Is this possible? Is there any trap I can go into?

I am thankful for all kind of tip and help!

Thanks,
Bodil
