Windows CE Operating System
Publication 6182-UM001D-EN-P
Microsoft created hardware reference models for the Handheld (HPC)
and the Pocket (PPC) PC so that third-party applications can run on these
standard platforms. There are no hardware standards for embedded
devices.
The RAC6182 Industrial Computer is largely compatible with HPC and
PPC, so applications that are compiled for the MIPS or MIPSFP may run
on the RAC6182.
The Windows CE programs that come with the RAC6182 Computer are
stored in flash memory and cannot be inadvertently lost. Additional
programs can be installed as described in Chapter 15, Managing User
Applications.
The RAC6182 Computer ships with the following programs preloaded:

There are other Windows CE programs available. Most of these
programs have been written for HPC devices, and some may run on the
RAC6182 Industrial Computer. Visit Microsoft Windows CE web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsce/ for more information on
Windows CE programs.
The RAC6182 Industrial Computer is available with Rockwell Software
