The integrated ARM based Emulator helps you easily test your CE image without having a hardware platform.
To write applications for Windows Embedded Compact 7, Microsoft offers a familiar set of programming languages that use managed or unmanaged code. Visual Studio 2008 takes full advantage of the .NET Compact Framework, which uses public Internet standards to enable integration with new and existing applications running on any platform. Supported languages include Visual C++, Visual C#, and Visual Basic. Siliverlight technology is fully integrated as well.
Windows Embedded Compact 7 (formerly known as Windows Embedded CE 7.0) is the seventh major release of Windows Embedded CE operating system.Windows Embedded Compact 7 is a real-time OS, separate from the Windows NT line, and is designed to target enterprise specific tools such as industrial controllers and consumer electronics devices such as digital cameras, GPS systems and also automotive. This item Zebra MC9200 Premium, MC92N0-G Handheld Rugged 2D Barcode Scanner, Windows Embedded Compact 7, MC92N0-G30SYEYA6WR Motorola MC9200 Mobile Computer - Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n) / Gun / 1D Standard Laser (SE965) / VGA Color Screen / 512MB RAM/2GB Flash / 53 key Keypad / Windows Embedded 6.5 / MC92N0-GA0SXERA5WR. It has Windows 7 Embedded Standard. Windows must be reinstalled to a new hard drive, but I can't find the Embedded version anywhere for download (Microsoft tools only work for Windows 8 and 10). Since the version is exempt from the free Win10 upgrade, I must find this exact version.
We can divide between the device OS development and the application development. To start with the device development, you need a BSP (Board Support Package) from a board manufacturer or start with a built in standard BSP. All needed drivers, configurations and settings are stored in the BSP. The more complete a BSP is, the less work you have to do! You can test your image via the device emulator. Don't forget to choose the emulator BSP as well in your project. After you have finished the OS design, you can export a SDK (Software Developmet Kit). The SDK contains the API-Set (Programmer Interface) supported through your Windows Embedded Compact 7 Image. An application developer can now install this SDK to write applications for your Windows Embedded Compact 7 Image and test it as well on the emulator first. There are different debugging tools and a Windows Embedded Compact Test Kit available in the Platform Builder Toolchain.
Embedded OEM Customer (OEM) contacts Elbacom as a Microsoft Authorized Embedded Distributor.
OEM obtains a free evaluation software or purchases a full version toolkit from Elbacom.
Evaluation version are fully functional and work for up to 180 days.
Note: Configurations created with evaluation version of toolkits (Target Designer, Platform Builder,
Image Configuration Editor) can be used in the full version without any change.
Elbacom initiates the digital Embedded OEM Customer License Agreement (OEM
CLA) which enables the OEM to buy licenses and retrieve OEM Pre-Installation Kits (OPKs).
Elbacom provides Additional Licensing Provisions (ALPs) for the chosen embedded product.
Embedded OEM Customer (OEM) fill out the CLA online. Elbacom and Microsoft check the data and approve the CLA.
The OEM will receive the digital CLA contract. After the OEM signs it, Microsoft will counter sign it.
The customer can now order licenses and OPKs.
Elbacom provides Embedded OEM Customer (OEM) licenses, OPKs, toolkits.
Embedded OEM Customer (OEM) starts shipping devices.
You will receive the Certificates of Authenticity (COA) in an envelope. The COAs are located on a strip where they can be easily removed to affix them on the devices.
There are different types of COAs available. Normally Windows Embedded Standard and Windows Embedded Compact use the Thumbnail COA which is displayed below. Windows Embedded Enterprise and Windows Embedded Server use the regular size COAs.

All CE and Compact Product have an identical Sticker. In our example, a customer buys two different CE products.
This are the products:
But how can you differ the products? First, please look on the printed information on the envelope. You can find there the range of the serial number (First POA & Last POA). This serial number is also listed on the sticker. Aligned to this serial number you can identify now which sticker belongs to which license.
This example would be also possible with POSReady 2009 and POSReady 7.
Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded Standard 2009 contain a Product Key card that contains the key to be used to activate the embedded image.
These cards look similar to the one shown below:
Please Note: Product Keys for Windows Embedded 7 or later are no longer shipped with the runtime license envelopes. To request your product key please follow the steps at Product Key Information.
EPKEA: You will get a Master Product Key for your Image. You can activate this Product Key for 50.000 times.
PKEA: You will get a different Product Key for every single device.
Please Note: EPKEA Product Keys for the this product are no longer shipped with the runtime license envelopes. To request your product key please follow the steps at Product Key Information.
PKEA Product Keys will be written on the COAs. (License Stickers)
