The CONTROL button on the device has two different functions:
1. If the button is pressed on startup, the bootloader will list all directories and files on the Compact
Flash card. This can be useful when analyzing problems. Windows CE is then started in the usual
manner.
2. If the button is held down during the Windows CE startup (after the bootloader), the Autoexec.bat
and Autoexec.reg files are not run.
Note:
The button is labeled depending on the MICRO PANEL either with CTRL or DOWNLOAD.
