Reflash the VX6
Note:
When reflashing, LXE recommends using a Compact Flash (CF) card that is greater
than 64MB. Files to be loaded on the CF card are: NK.BIN, EBOOT.NB0, XSCALE.BIT
Requirements:
•
A screwdriver (not supplied by LXE)
•
PCMCIA to CF card adapter
Preparation
•
LXE recommends that installation of the CF card be performed on a clean, well-lit
surface.
•
Loosen the captive screws securing the user access panel cover. The cover is
tethered to the VX6.
Caution
!
Make sure the VX6 has an uninterrupted power connection before beginning the
reflash procedure. Loss of power during the reflash process can result in
corrupted files.
IMPORTANT
– Please contact LXE Customer Support for information on upgrading Windows
CE .NET to Windows CE 5.0. These instructions are only valid for upgrading to a newer
revision of the same operating system.
