Resident Flash

Resident Flash serves as a small-capacity non-volatile hard disk that allows storage of critical application
files and data in Flash ROM. This can prevent loss of important data due to power failure. When the
registry is backed up using system utilities, it is stored in the ResidentFlash folder. The ResidentFlash
folder can be located by double clicking My Device from the desktop. The Windows/Desktop folder is
also stored in non-volatile memory. It is used for Desktop icons. To add your own Desktop icons, use
My Device to locate and highlight the application/data file, copy it, and then paste it into the
Windows/Desktop folder.

Note: All data files and application files stored in folders other than the ResidentFlash folder will be
erased when power is removed from the HMI.

Startup

The Startup function automatically boots on system boot up. Startup functions are stored in the
Resident Flash directory.

To create a customized start up function:

1. Double click the My Device icon from the Windows CE desktop
2. Double click on the ResidentFlash folder.
3. Copy executable files to the Startup directory.
