Also, I would start by using our Serializer .NET library (under Docs/HowTo/Library tab) to control the Traxster using the eBox-2300. There's lots of good documentation on the Serializer .NET Library here.

MSRS requires a lot of CPU due to the overhead required for serializing/deserializing messages passed between services. We have found that the eBox-2300 is at the absolute minimum required CPU (~200Mhz) to run MSRS under CE, and it's really not enough. If you still want to go the MSRS route, that is fine, but you'll want to use the SerializerLite service we wrote here, which is a subset of the full functionality provided in the Serializer.

You will find that developing and deploying apps using the Serializer .NET lib is much more satisfiying and much easier to use. :)

Best Regards!

Make sure you follow the steps in this post to ensure you have both serial ports enabled in the OS image:

Once you get the updated image deployed to the eBox, you should be able to open the serial ports within your .NET application, and send/receive the protocol commands pertinent to the devices connected to them (e.g. Serializer and CMUcam2+ camera, etc.).

Just so you understand...You'll want to have one serial port connected to the Serializer, and the other connected to the CMUcam2+.

As for enabling WiFi, you should have an option to enable that when you're configuring your image (when you first create it per the eBox-2300 Jump Start Guide).

Best Regards!

Hi, We bought an ICOP eBox-2300 Jump Start Kit from you. I connect my traxter to the ebox whit serializer and CMUcam2+ Vision Camera by rs232 ports. And we would like to create a connection between e-box and my laptop by wireless. So we could be transfer camera capture and control our traxter from laptop by help of roboticsstudio.net. on the internet, traxter's software we already ordered.

So everythink is ok, and possible until now. But we are not succesfull to run all of these. we still triy to connect from ebox to the laptop by wifi. and we also dont know how to send info from rs232 port from ebox.
