The only place car PC enthusiasts can go for advice, tips and tools is a handful of hard-to-find Web sites--until now. Car PC Hacks is your guide into the car PC revolution.

Car PC Hacks is the first book available to introduce and entrench you into this hot new market. You can count on the book because it hails from O'Reilly, a trusted resource for technical books. Expect innovation, useful tools, and fun experiments that you've come to expect from O'Reilly's Hacks Series. Maybe you've hacked computers and gadgets, and now you're ready to take it to your car. If hacking is new and you would like to mix cars and computers, this book gets you started with its introduction to the basics of car electrical systems. Even when you're unclear on the difference between amps and watts, expect a clear explanation along with real-life examples to get on track.

  • Windows XP for Embedded Applications
    Windows XP for embedded applications Written by: Patric Dove, Advantech Corporation, Industrial Automation Group The embedded version of Windows XP is a componentized version of the well-known Windows XP Professional operating system. Instead of everything being wrapped tightly into a single package, XP Embedded breaks the OS down into more than 10,000 individual components, allowing developers to create systems that have the functionality and familiar features of XP. One of the most attractive features of XP Embedded is that it is much smaller than XP for desktop systems — so small, in fact, that it can fit on a 512 MB CompactFlash® card, and still leave room for system applications and data backup. The CompactFlash card resists vibration and shock for reliable storage and can be replaced easily for fast system upgrades. Also of great interest for the embedded system developer are XP Embedded’s choices of boot methods, its wide range of communications options, and the array of tools available for system configuration. XP Embedded uses the same application programming environment as XP, which makes application development quick and easy, and allows the same application to run on desktop and embedded machines. And it has improved code protection for critical kernel structures, file protection and more. Suggested industrial applications for XP Embedded include human-machine interface (HMI) panels, process automation systems, industrial robots, inspection systems, Soft programmable logic controllers (Soft PLCs), remote control devices and factory monitoring systems. Accordingly, many Advantech systems are compatible with XP Embedded. A few of the many possible consumer and commercial applications of XP Embedded would include set top boxes and terminals such as kiosks and ATMs.

  • Center Console Mounted Trunk Release Kit (05-09 All)
    Center Console Mounted Trunk Release Kit (05-09 All) Please take your time, gather all the necessary tools, and carefully read the instructions before starting. Tools Required: - Flat head screwdriver - Phillips screwdriver - Pliers Package Contents: - OEM Ford access panel w/ pre-drilled hole & switch - Wiring harness - Wiring connectors - All necessary wire taps (red & blue) - Mounting hardware Installation: 1. Begin by making sure your car is off and your parking brake is on. Remove any items that may be in your center console, cup holder, glove compartment, or passenger side floor. 2. First, we will remove the center console cover. Remove the two Phillips screws located towards the rear of the center console cover, and set them aside for re-installation later. 3. Make sure your emergency brake is as far up as possible in order to make it easier to remove the center console panel. Note: the rubber boots that shroud the emergency brake lever tend to hug the lever as you attempt to remove the center console. 4. Remove the leather bezel from the shifter (manual transmission) or trim bezel (automatic). This is done by prying up gently on one corner with a small flat head screwdriver. Note: On manual transmissions, you must unscrew the shifter ball in order the remove the leather bezel completely. While unscrewing the shifter ball, hold the leather boot in place so it doesn’t get twisted up. 5. Begin to carefully lift the entire center console. Several clips hold the console into place and they will unsnap as you pull up on the panel.

    MCTSi Exam 70-577 Windows Embedded Standard 2009 Preparation Kit Certification Exam Preparation Automation Not for resale. ii Table of Contents Contents at a Glance 1 Creating and Customizing the Configuration 2 Managing the Development Environment 3 Integrating Embedded Enabling Features 4Creating Components 5 Generating and Deploying an Image 6 Adding Windows Functionality Chapter 6 Adding Windows Functionality Microsoft® Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 enables you to add to the run-time image custom functionality that enhances security and the user experience. For example, you can customize a client shell to expose selected functionality of the device. You can also enable remote administration on your device, add multiple languages, and add multiple user accounts. Exam objectives in this chapter: ■ Create a custom shell component ■ Configure multiple user accounts ■ Configure security ■ Add support for multiple languages ■ Add support for remote administration Before You Begin To complete the lessons in this chapter you need the following: ■ Windows Embedded Studio for Windows Embedded Standard 2009 installed. ■ Completed Chapters 1–5. 177 178 Chapter 6 Adding Windows Functionality Lesson 1: Create a Custom Shell Component Windows Embedded Standard 2009 provides several shells, such as Explorer shell, Task Manger shell and Command shell. You can extend the functionality they provide by creating a custom shell that reflects your application and OS design functionality. For example, if your device monitors a car’s engine at a service garage, the display may need to present gauges that show engine condition and buttons to operate the device. Because the use of embedded devices is so specific, it is preferable that the user not be able to start applications, access the file system or interact in the way they usually do with regular Windows XP client based computers.
