Hello Blaustein / Klaus, WolWer / WoWe and HaukeRun,

As the fifth CE_Prog test program was unsuccessful, and further to posts 2088 and 2093, assistance of a S3857 owner would be appreciated in providing details of devices and services running on the S3857, and a full registry and file list.

Registry, devices and services information will give an indication of how buzzer hardware is operated. In conjunction with file list, an indication of how complete the current extraction is will be gained, as will whether there may be other relevant files and commands.

It may be the case that the devices and services are actually as guestimated below, and there are no further registry entries, files or commands involved, however, that is unknown and uncertain without analysis of information that can only be gathered from an actual S3857. A sixth variant of test program could either await confirmation or proceed based on the aforementioned observation.

The purpose of the exercise being solely to enable developer analysis of S3857 buzzer hardware and supporting drivers for integration and utilisation in GPS Cycle Computer. Brief instructions are below, more detailed instructions and assistance can be provided if necessary.

Instructions: Notes

1: The space before the close brackets in the devices and services section should not be present and needs to be removed, but unfortunately had to be inserted otherwise the forum automatically changes the : and ) to an unwanted smiley face, and it is not apparent how to disable that. The ................. is just to show the entries are separate, the forum does not allow multiple spaces.

2: * Use correct name for S3857 internal storage instead if it is not My Flash Disk. Alternatively save to root, i.e. \ where \Windows and \Program Files folders are located.

Instructions:

Extract Windows CE 5 Device Tools.zip on the PC, and transfer the Device Tools folder and its contents in the normal way to the S3857 My Flash Disk, and then disconnect the S3857 from the PC.

From the Device Tools folder on the S3857, run TaskMgr.

Select Devices, make a note of what is shown, it may be similar to the below. There may be other buzzer related entries also. Press the button on the button with cross when done.

$device\BUZ1(BUZ1: ).................Loaded.................Automatic.................Buzzer.dll

Select Devices, make a note of what is shown, it may be similar to the below. There may be other buzzer related entries also. Press the button on the button with cross when done.

BUZ1(BUZ1: ).................Started.................Automatic.................Buzzer.dll

Select RegEdit. At the bottom, on the top row of buttons, press the button second from left. From the menu, select Export All.

Select location as My Flash Disk\Device Tools\ and file name as S3857.reg

Press the tick button. Full registry will now be saved.

Change, if necessary, value data to 0 for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Console\OutputTo

(if desired, note the existing value and restore afterwards, registry has been backed up in previous step in any event)

Press the tick button. Press the button bottom right, select Exit.

From the folder on the S3857, if not already present, copy console.dll to \Windows on the S3857.

From the folder on the S3857, run CMD.EXE

At the command prompt, enter the below command exactly as shown, then press return

dir /A /O:N /S >My Flash Disk\Device Tools\S3857.txt

Full file list will now be saved.

Select File > Close

* From the folder, or wherever files were saved, on the S3857, transfer S3857.reg and S3857.txt to the PC in the normal way. Zip and upload the two files for analysis.
