7.1 General information
B&R Windows CE is an operating system that is optimally tailored to B&R's devices, i.e. it includes only the functions
and modules that are required by each device. This makes this operating system extremely robust and stable. A
further advantage of B&R Windows CE compared to other operating systems are the low licensing costs.
