| The following is the procedure to disable the EWF (Write Filter) function in a CF card with pre-installed Windows XP Embedded, the optional item for our IPC models. |
■ Procedure |
| 1. | Open the Explorer and then the [C:\Proface\EWFSettingTool] folder. Execute the "EWFSttingTOOL.exe" indicated below by a red frame. |
| |  |
| | MEMO | The image of the folder screen differs depending on the version of Windows XP Embedded, but it does not affect the functionality. |  | | |
| 2. | Either of the windows as shown below is displayed. The message "[C drive is ....]" displayed at the top of the screen shows the EWF state at the moment. [Protected] means that the EWF function is enabled, but writing to a CF card is disabled. [not Protected] means that the EWF function is disabled, but writing to a CF card is enabled. |
| |  |  |
| | | |
| | MEMO | The image of the windows differs depending on the version of Windows XP Embedded, but it does not affect the functionality. The message "Current setting: ....]" displayed at the top of the screen shows the EWF state at the moment. |  |  | | |
| | |
| 3. | Select [Protect OFF], and click the [OK] button. |
| |  |
| 4. | When the window as shown below is displayed, click the [OK] button to automatically restart the Windows XP Embedded. After the restart, the selected EWF protection setting becomes enabled. |
| |  MEMO | The above window does not appear depending on the version of Windows XP Embedded. | | |
| Important | After performing a certain process, return the status back to the "EWF Enable" (or "Protect ON") with the same procedure. It makes writing to a CF card disabled afresh so that unexpected data update or deletion cannot be performed. In the Windows XP Embedded environment, the "EWF Enable" (or "Protect ON") is recommended for usual operation. | | |
