Remote Desktop Connection

5.1 Remote Desktop Connection

Remote Desktop Connection is an 8525 G2/8530 G2 application used to connect to
a Windows Terminal Server so that you can run a “session” on the Server machine,
using the 8525 G2/8530 G2 (Windows CE device).
Refer to the following website for step-by-step information about setting up
this connection:

5.2 Pocket PC Compatibility

The 8525 G2/8530 G2 supports the AYGShell API set that allows PocketPC-com-
patible applications to run on the vehicle-mount. Microsoft Windows CE 5.0 is
designed to include application programming interface (API) compatibility support
for the Microsoft Windows Powered Pocket PC 2002 shell in 8525 G2/8530 G2s
running Windows CE 5.0.
The website listed below describes the APIs exposed through AYGShell and the
application compatibility between Windows Powered Pocket PC 2002-based appli-
cations and Windows CE-based devices:

5.3 The Control Panel

The Windows CE Control Panel provides a group of icons through which you can
set a variety of system-wide properties, such as mouse sensitivity, network
configuration and the desktop color scheme.

Note: If you are uncertain how to move around a dialog box and make selec-

tions, review “Using A Dialog Box” on page 73.

When the 8525 G2/8530 G2 boots up, the startup desktop (shell) is displayed, and
any applications stored in the Startup folder start up immediately.

Press [BLUE][0], or

Tap on the Start button in the taskbar to display the Start Menu.
