4.1 Introduction  
The TREK-725 is an embedded system using the Windows® CE 5.0 OS.  
Windows® CE 5.0 is a compact OS that occupies less storage space and  
system resources compared with other operating systems such as Win-  
dows® NT or Windows® XP. By its modular nature, it is possible to  
choose only those functions that are needed for a particular application.  
This not only reduces the system resources required, but also reduces  
start-up time. In the field of embedded applications, this is an appealing  
feature because the impact of downtime is minimized.  
Furthermore, the small storage space needed makes OS on solid-state  
disk possible, which means higher robustness to harsh environments.

4.2 Windows CE Startup Procedure  
Windows CE can be loaded by three methods, through on-board flash,  
PCMCIA/CF card, and Ethernet. The presence of an image file (NK.bin)  
on a PCMCIA/CF card forces TREK-725 to boot from this PCMCIA/CF  
card. Besides booting from PCMCIA/CF card, HyperTerminal can be  
used to configure the method of downloading a Windows CE image by  
connecting a null modem cable between a PC COM port and the TREK-  
725 COM1 port then following these steps.  
4.2.1 Setting up HyperTerminal on PC

Option(0) IP address  
Choosing this option allows the configuration of the static IP address that  
is used if DHCP is not enabled. This information is configured once and  
stored in flash for subsequent downloads. The following prompt is dis-  
played:  
Enter new IP address:  
You should enter a decimal representation of the IP address with each  
byte separated by a decimal point. If you enter no data at the prompt, the  
IP address is not changed. If you enter any numbers, they are used. Any  
numbers not entered are expanded to zeros. That is, entering 255.255 at  
the prompt resolves to 255.255.0.0.  
Option (1) Subnet Mask  
Choosing this option allows the configuration of the subnet mask that is  
used in combination with the static IP address. Just like the IP address,  
this information is configured once and stored into flash for subsequent  
downloads. The following prompt is displayed:  
Enter new subnet mask:  
You should enter a decimal representation of the mask with each byte  
separated by a decimal point. If you enter no data at the prompt, the mask  
is not changed. If you enter any numbers, they are used. Any numbers not  
entered are expanded to zeros. That is, entering 255.255 at the prompt  
resolves to 255.255.0.0.  
Option (2) NPE0 MAC Address  
Choosing this option allows the configuration of the static MAC address  
that is used for the NPE0 Interface. This information is configured once  
and stored into flash for subsequent downloads. The following prompt is  
displayed:  
Enter new MAC address:  
You should enter a hexidecimal representation of the MAC address with  
each byte separated by a dash. If you enter no data at the prompt, the  
MAC address is not changed. If you enter any numbers, they are used.  
Any numbers not entered are expanded to zeros. That is, entering 80-86-  
AA at the prompt resolves to 80-86-AA-00-00-00.  
Option (3) NPE1 MAC Address  
This option is not used on TREK-725.  
Option (4) RNDIS MAC Address  
This option is not used on TREK-725.

Option (5) Boot Delay  
Choosing this option allows the configuration of the number of seconds  
that the boot loader waits for user input before continuing with the image  
download or launch. The following prompt is displayed:  
Enter maximum number of seconds to delay [1-255]:  
Option (6) DHCP  
Choose this option to enable or disable DHCP. When DHCP is enabled  
the static IP address is not used. When DHCP is disabled, the static IP  
address is used.  
Option (7) Program RAM Image into Flash  
Choosing this option instructs the boot loader to store a normal NK.BIN  
RAM image into flash memory. This image may be launched via option  
(L). When launched, the boot loader reads the entire image out of flash  
and stores it into the appropriate location within SDRAM. It then exe-  
cutes this image from SDRAM exactly the same way it would have had it  
downloaded the image into RAM and never stored it into flash. Because  
the image runs completely out of SDRAM, system performance is  
improved due to the faster access speeds associated with this memory  
type.  
Option (8) Check Image Signature(s)  
Choosing this option will check the signature of the downloaded binary  
image. Note that the released image is not signed so this is expected to  
fail.  
Option (A) Automatic Startup Behavior  
Choose this option cycles the default boot behavior from downloading a  
new image at startup to launching the existing flash resident image. The  
existing flash image is the flash image that is programmed when an  
NK.BIN image is programmed into flash.  
Option (B) Boot Device Order  
This option is not used in TREK-725. The boot device is always NPE0.  
Option (C) Ethernet Debugging  
This option is not used in TREK-725. It must be set to DISABLE.  
Option (D) Download Image Now  
Choose this option to break out of the menu, save any applicable changes  
that were made and then continue with the image download process.

4.3 Upgrade Procedure  
After the OS image has been built, we may want to burn it to the on-board  
flash ROM. Advantech provides the upgrade utility  
“UpgradeIXP_1.01.07.exe” to upgrade Bootloader image, WinCE image,  
or boot logo in the on-board flash ROM. The upgrade procedure is as fol-  
lows:  
1.  
Copy the “UpgradeIXP_1.01.07.exe” utility and image files (for  
example: NK.NB0, EBOOT.NB0, and WINDOWSCE.BMP) to a  
CF storage card.  
Note: NK.NB0 is a WinCE image, EBOOT.NB0 is a Bootloader image,  
and WINDOWSCE.BMP is a boot bitmap.

2.  
Insert the CF storage card in to the TREK-725, then launch  
UpgradeIXP_1.01.07.exe.  
Figure 4.8: Image files and upgrade utility in CF storage card  
3.  
Check the items you want to upgrade as shown in Figure 4.8. If you  
want to upgrade the boot logo, you can input the path of the bitmap  
file in the edit box or click the ‘Browse’ button to select the file.  
Note: The option “NK.NB0 (Normal, XIP)” means that the nk.nb0 will  
be written directly to the flash ROM, and “NK.NB0 (Compressed)”  
means that nk.nb0 is compressed first, then written to the flash ROM.  
Boot time: compressed image takes longer to boot.  
Flash file system size: compressed OS image results in a larger  
flash file system size.

4.4.5 Watchdog timer  
It is important in industrial applications that control systems rarely crash,  
or are capable of self-recovery if they are halted somehow. The watchdog  
function is provided to reset the TREK-725 if the software crashes. There  
is a countdown timer inside the watchdog function. The user’s application  
program enables the watchdog timer, then regularly reloads this count-  
down timer. If the user’s application program crashes, it fails to reload the  
countdown timer and when the countdown timer reaches zero, the TREK-  
725 is reset. The watchdog function in the TREK-725 provides eight dif-  
ferent time intervals: 2 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 60  
seconds, 2 minutes, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes. The “Test” button is used  
to start the watchdog countdown function, and the “Enable Trigger” but-  
ton is used to trigger the watchdog periodically.

4.4.6 Miscellaneous  
The Misc page provides several functions as described below. The “Reg-  
istry” block provides registry save, clear, and view functions. The “MAC  
ID” block shows the network MAC address. The “COMM” block pro-  
vides IPConfig and ActiveSync communication functions. The “Reset”  
Block provides “Cold Boot” and “Start Upgrade” functions. “Cold Boot”  
is used to reboot the system. “Start Upgrade” is used to automatically  
download an image over the Ethernet interface and program this image  
into flash after a system reboot.

4.4.7 Startup execution  
The TREK-725 has a useful function called “Startup execution”. After  
the system boots up, the startup execution function automatically begins.  
This function is useful for control systems to initialize processes or other  
procedures. In TREK-725, there is one way to configure the “Startup”  
function.  
Method  
1.  
Create a “startup” directory on a CF storage card or in a folder  
called “\Mounted Volume\”.  
2.  
Copy executable files to the “startup” directory that was created in  
step 1.  
Example  
We copy the executable files “tty.exe” to “\DiskOnChip\Startup”, and  
then reboot the system. After the system boots up, “tty.exe” is automati-  
cally executed.

nections.  
4.6 M-system DOC Flash File System  
4.6.1 Introduction to M-system DOC Flash File System  
The M-system DOC Flash File System was designed and developed spe-  
cifically as an enhancement to Microsoft Windows CE operating systems  
to eliminate extra disk-like storage such as storage cards, redundant RAM  
and ROM.  
Trek-725 User Manual  
48  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
     
4.6.2 DiskOnChip folder in TREK-725  
TREK-725 uses M-system DOC Flash to use the free space of flash  
ROMs for persistent storage. The M-system DOC Flash file system  
region of the system is located in the “\DiskOnChip” directory. Any file  
or directory stored in the “\DiskOnChip” directory is kept persistently,  
even if the TREK-725 is turned off. The user can store software or data in  
“\DiskOnChip” rather than on CF cards to avoid inconvenience.  
4.7 Application Program Development  
The TREK-725 is bundled with the Windows® CE 5.0 operating system.  
In real applications, the user needs to execute various application pro-  
grams on the operating system. However, unlike other Windows operat-  
ing systems (98, 2000, XP, and XPE), Windows® CE 5.0 is a hardware-  
dependent operating system. That is to say, users must rebuild application  
programs by using TREK-725's software development kit (SDK).  
4.7.1 System requirements  
• Intel® Pentium 90 MHz CPU or more advanced  
• Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Professional or Windows® XP  
• Microsoft® eMbedded Visual Tools 4.0  
• Platform SDK for TREK-725  
• 64 MB DRAM  
• CD-ROM drive  
• Monitor with VGA resolution at least  
• Mouse  
• 200 MB free hard disk space at least  
• TREK-725 platform  
• The host PC and TREK-725 need to be connected on the same LAN to  
do kernel debugging if necessary

4.9.5 Watchdog API  
If you are developing an eVC project, you can call these functions to con-  
trol the watchdog timer. The normal procedure is call AdvLibWDSetCon-  
fig() to set the time interval, then the watchdog timer will be enabled.  
After setting and enabling the watchdog timer, you must trigger (ping) the  
watchdog timer within the time interval you set, or the system will reboot.  
Finally, you could call AdvLibWDDisable() to stop the watchdog func-  
tion.  
AdvLibWDSetConfig  
This API call sets the configuration of the watchdog driver.  
* BOOL AdvLibWDSetConfig(DWORD delay, int timeout)  
+ Parameters  
- delay  
[in] An initial delay in milliseconds before first timeout period.  
- timeout  
[in] Watchdog timeout in seconds. The range is set from 0 to 60.  
+ Return Value  
- TRUE (nonzero) on success.  
FALSE (zero) on failure.  
+ Remarks  
This function enables and activates the watchdog timer with the given  
parameters. After the watchdog timer is activated, the application should  
regularly call AdvLibWDTrigger() within the specified timeout in milli-  
seconds.  
NOTE: If you set Parameter timeout to 0, the watchdog will reboot sys-  
tem immediately.

FALSE (zero) on failure.  
+ Remarks  
After the watchdog timer is activated, the application should call this  
function regularly to indicate that it is still working properly. If the watch-  
dog timer is activated, and the application doesn’t call AdvLibWDTrig-  
ger() after timeout seconds, the system will reboot.

This function disables the watchdog timer.  
* BOOL AdvLibWDDisable(void);  
+ Parameters  
- No parameters  
+ Return Value  
- TRUE (nonzero) on success.

Programming the  
Watchdog Timer  
The TREK-725 is equipped with a  
watchdog timer that resets the CPU or  
generates an interrupt if processing  
comes to a standstill for any reason.  
This feature ensures system reliability  
in industrial standalone or unmanned  
environments.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer  
A.1 Programming the Watchdog Timer  
To program the watchdog timer, you must write a program which writes I/  
O port address 440 (hex). The output data is a time interval value. The  
value range is from 01 (hex) to 3F (hex), and the related time interval is  
from 1 sec. to 63 sec.  
Data Time Interval  
01 1 sec.  
02 2 sec.  
03 3 sec.  
04 4 sec.  
ï
ï
ï
ï
ï
ï
3F 63 sec.  
After data entry, your program must refresh the watchdog timer by rewrit-  
ing the I/O port 440 (hex) while simultaneously setting it. When you want  
to disable the watchdog timer, your program should read I/O port 440  
(hex).  
The following example shows how you might program the watchdog  
timer:
