In this example, host machine refers to the computer on which Platform Builder has
been installed and where the nk.bin image is located. Target machine refers to the
computer on which the Windows CE image is to be run. It is assumed that before at-
tempting to eboot the target machine the Windows CE image will be built and ready
on the host machine.
a.
Create a bootable floppy disk.
The following files must be present on the disk:
himem.sys
(found on your CE development platform)
loadcepc.exe
(found on your CE development platform)
eboot.bin
(supplied by Epson)
config.sys
(supplied by Epson)
autoexec.bat
(supplied by Epson)
Note: The config.sys and autoexec.bat files are configured to allow loading of a
local copy of the nk.bin image also.
b. Modify autoexec.bat
It may be necessary to modify the network card settings in autoexec.bat. Locate
the lines containing “set NET_IRQ” and “set NET_IOBASE” and ensure the val-
ues match the settings of your network card. If necessary, change the values to re-
flect the settings on your card (typically IRQ: 5 and IOBASE: 340).
c.
Boot the target CEPC machine using the floppy disk and choose the eboot option.
d. Configure remote services on the host machine. This must be done only once.
i. On the host machine, open the project workspace in Platform Builder. From the
Platform Builder menu select “Target”, and then select “Configure Remote Ser-
vices”.
ii. Under the Services tab, set the top two drop down boxes to “Ethernet”.
iii. Under the Ethernet tab, a CEPC machine should appear in the New Devices
box. Select the CEPC machine and click on the arrow button to the right of it.
e.
Normal Eboot Operation
a. On the host machine, open the project workspace in Platform Builder then se-
lect the menu option “Target”, and then select “Configure Remote Services”.
b. Select the Ethernet tab and ensure that “Current Device:” is the intended target
machine. If not, select the machine from the list or configure a new remote service
(see step d)
c. Select the menu option “Target”, and select “Download Image”. The download
may take a few minutes.
Note: Problems with steps d or e may be due to incorrect synchronization between
the host and target machines. Try re-booting the target machine from the floppy
and repeating the step.
