Remote Desktop Connection

Remote Desktop Connection is an 8515 application used to connect to a Windows Terminal
Server so that you can run a “session” on the Server machine, using the 8515 (Windows Em-
bedded CE 5.0 device).
Refer to the following website for step-by-step information about setting up this connection:

Pocket PC Compatibility

The 8515 supports the AYGShell API set that allows PocketPC-compatible applications to
run on the vehicle-mount. Microsoft Windows Embedded CE 5.0 is designed to include ap-
plication programming interface (API) compatibility support for the Microsoft Windows
Powered Pocket PC 2002 shell in 8515s running Windows Embedded CE 5.0.
The website listed below describes the APIs exposed through AYGShell and the application
compatibility between Windows Powered Pocket PC 2002-based applications and Windows
Embedded CE 5.0-based devices:

The Control Panel

The Windows Embedded CE 5.0 Control Panel provides a group of icons through which
you can set a variety of system-wide properties, such as mouse sensitivity, network configu-
ration and the desktop colour scheme.

When the 8515 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.

Tap on Settings>Control Panel.

The Control Panel folder contains icons used in the setup of your 8515.
