1 Introduction
I/O
The I/O has a mini-USB client (to connect to Microsoft® Windows Mobile Device Center, used on
Microsoft Windows Vista® and Windows 7, or connect to Microsoft ActiveSync® technology, used
on Microsoft Windows XP), a USB host port (to connect to USB client devices) and a DB9 RS-232
connector (for use with serial devices).
❶ USB ❺ Serial Pin 5
❷ Serial Pin 1 ❻ Mini-USB client
❸ Serial Pin 6 ❼ External power
❹ Serial Pin 9
Note – COM1 is always reserved in software for the 9-pin port. Many USB peripheral devices supported by
personal computers (Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Vista, Microsoft Windows 7, and so on.) are not
supported by this unit. Mass storage devices (e.g. memory drives) and USB Human Interface Devices (HID) (e.g.
keyboards) are supported. Before purchasing a USB peripheral, check with the manufacturer to ensure that it
will operate with one of these natively supported USB classes. Some devices have no applicability in Windows
Embedded Handheld. For example, mice do not make sense to use with your unit because it is designed to be
touchscreen or keypad operated.
