Configuring a Serial Remote Connection (Windows CE 5.0)
You can use a serial port connection to download or debug a run-time image.
For target devices that do not have an Ethernet connection, download and debug using multiple serial ports. To download through a serial port, a serial boot loader is required. A serial boot loader (Sboot.bin) is provided on the x86 boot floppy disk. For more information about boot loaders, see Boot Loaders.
To configure a serial remote connection
Start the target device.
Connect a null modem cable from the development workstation to the COM2 serial port on the target device.
For information on the null modem cable, see Null Modem Cable Architecture.
From the Target menu, choose Connectivity Options to open the Target Connectivity Options window.
Below Service Configuration, select KernelService Map; then, from the Download list, choose Serial and then choose the Settings button.
