Pocket Control PC - PC v1.1 ReadMe 1.Index |  |
Welcome to Pocket Control PC - PC version! The program is free and by using it, you are encouraging its sharing. The program is tightly connected to Pocket Control PC - NetCF version (the programs depend on each other to work).
The program's (server) main function is to connect to a remote device which runs Pocket Control PC - NetCF (client). The program's connect through TCP/IP and exchange commands and text. The commands sent by the remote program are interpretated by this program and executed. The current commands supported pertain to the following:
Mouse and Scroll commands: The remote user is able to control the PC's mouse (and mouse's vertical scroll).
Keyboard commands: The remote user is able to control the PC's keyboard. All usual keys are supported. Current keyboard layout is US (standard). The remote user can normally change languages in Windows.
Input text & keystrokes: The remote user can input text and keystrokes for the PC.
The general notion for the program is the following: To direct a PC from a device which runs .Net Compact Framework technology (such as Windows Mobile 2003, Pocket PCs 2003 and PCs) and Pocket Control PC - NetCF.
Devices must connect to the PC through TCP/IP protocol (the program has options for configuring IP). This is usually achieved through ActiveSync or network.
Smartphones or PocketPCs usually connect to the PC through Microsoft's Activesync. Various ways are supported to achieve that: COM, Network, USB. These ways can also be extended with bluetooth, wireless network etc. The most useful way would be bluetooth.
If you liked this program, please support its longevity by using it and encouraging others to use it. If the program is supported, I will extend its possibilities.
A PC which runs Pocket Control PC - PC (for Windows platforms). Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 or later must be installed on the PC. You can download it at Microsoft's website.
A device which runs Pocket Control PC - NetCF. Supported devices: Smartphones 2003 or later, Pocket PCs 2003 or later, PCs.
Connection between PC and client with TCP/IP. Microsoft's Activesync connection is adequate.
Commands transfered between the PC program and the NetCF program may differ between versions. Commands supported by this PC version keep up with commands used by Pocket Control PC - NetCF v1.0. So, it would be better to use this program with that NetCF version.
