Resident Flash
Resident Flash serves as a non-volatile hard disk that allows storage of critical application files and data
in Flash ROM. In the factory configuration, there is approximately 160 megabytes of storage available.
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 shortcuts to the Startup directory.
Note: the actual contents may vary.
