RegMerge and CopyFiles

RegMerge and CopyFiles are two device drivers included in the Windows CE OS to assist developers in
configuring the MK3000 following a cold boot. See

Accessing the Windows CE Desktop

If an MK3000 is configured to launch an application on power-up, you can bypass the application at boot-up to
access to the Windows

Network Time Update: SNTP Client

The MK3000 Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client can automatically set and update the MK3000 time
and date through the network. Use this feature to set the system time and date after reboots or power outages.
This feature also ensures consistent time and date stamping across a fleet of MK3000s. The SNTP Client
program queries the specified SNTP server over the network to set the time and date.
The SNTP client shipped with MK3000 Windows CE 5.0 is the Microsoft default SNTP Client program.

Memory Management

Flash: Nonvolatile (Persistent) Memory

The MK3000 64 MB configuration has 64 MB of available nonvolatile flash memory. 5 MB is committed for
platform partition use to install external driver packs such as RF drivers, and 27 MB is available for developer's
applications within the application partition (folder). The data partition (folder) has no available memory. The
data stored in flash memory persists through cold boot cycles.
To increase usable persistent (flash) memory, use the Terminal Configuration Manager (TCM) to adjust the
allocation of memory between the application and data partitions. See
Add a microSD card to the MK3000 to increase the non-volatile memory available for file storage.

RAM: Volatile (Non-Persistent) Memory

The MK3000 has 128 MB of DRAM volatile memory. Developers can automate control of the device's RAM
(volatile) memory allocation (storage vs. memory used to run programs) to persist memory allocation settings
through cold boot cycles.
