... and Windows CE

Installation and SW distribution

Windows CE devices are typically used in combination with desktop computers

running ‘Windows CE Services’ to transfer data between the desktop computer and

the H/PC device. To use ORiNOCO IEEE 802.11 in your Windows CE device, you

will need to:

Use the installation instructions provided by Lucent Technologies to install the

ORiNOCO miniport driver plus the Config files onto the desktop computer. You

can find these instructions in:

The ORiNOCO IEEE PC Card User’s Guide (revision B or higher).

The Readme.txt file that is included with the ORiNOCO IEEE software for

Windows CE environments (also printed in the appendix of this

document).

The ORiNOCO driver installation tool for Windows CE, will place a runtime

version of the driver in a special “CE Services” sub-directory.

Synchronize the H/PC with the desktop computer. This will transfer the

runtime driver from the CE Services sub-directory to the H/PC, and completes

the installation in the device.

Change the ORiNOCO parameters (if needed) on the H/PC by activating the

ORiNOCO icon in the Control Panel. This will present the user with the card

properties that can be changed.

For additional information

about installing the Windows CE Services,

please refer

The user documentation of your H/PC device.
