Q: I have disabled sleep mode (Activity Timeout = 0) in the registry, and my application decides when to put the board to sleep. However, after I wake up the first time, the board always goes back to sleep after one minute. What am I doing wrong?
The "wakeup timeout" is an undocumented "feature" of Windows CE. The default setting is to go to sleep sixty seconds of inactivity after waking up. You can set the value you want in seconds, or set it to zero for no timeout (infinite timeout). To turn it off, change ADSLOAD.REG as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM=CurrentControlSet\Control\Power]
"WakeupPowerOff"=dword:0
ADS builds 2.01 and later of CE 2.12 compensate for this problem by launching a thread when the activity timeout is set to 0 that regularly resets the activity timer (at the time of writing, this was true through the current ADS CE build, 2.04). |

Problem: Gmaster goes into Sleep mode and it is disabled.
End Result: I do not want my device to go into Sleep Mode.
I recently upgraded to WinCE 4.2, briefly, on my GMaster. I have now went back to my original WinCE 3.0, with original *.HWT and *.REG files. Now my GMaster enters Sleep Moded after "xx" minutes of inactivity. Originally, my GMaster never went into Sleep mode.
Here is a copy of my *.REG file. Perhaps I am overlooking something.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

; Show/Hide Desktop
;
; CE desktop is useful for development, but not usually
; used in final application. If desktop is suppressed,
; you must already have your applicaton loaded in flash as
; ADSLOAD.EXE or in \FlashFX Disk\Startup\ or
; \Storage Card\Startup to be able to use system.

;---------------------------------------------------------------------
; Launch Apps in Startup Folder
;
; You can launch applications from the Startup\ folder of either
; the "Storage Card" (CF or PCMCIA) or the "FlashFX Disk" (onboard
; flash disk). This allows you to launch your own applications
; on an ADS single-board computer.
;
; The LaunchEXE and LaunchVB keys enable execution of .EXE and .VB
; applications, respectively. You can reduce boot time by setting
; the keys to 0, if not needed.
;
; Applications loaded as ADSLOAD.EXE will always launch, irrespective
; of the settings here.
;
; Any EXE or VB app on the Storage Card causes the launcher
; to ignore files on the FlashFX Disk. This feature allows
; technicians to prevent your application from loading and to
; run their own test or update application.

; Power Management: Activity Timeouts

; PowerOffFromApps 0 driver puts system to sleep when contact

; Power Management: Trap power failures
;
; This registry entry allows your application to get notification
; when a power failure has occurred. Normally, the system goes
; immediately to sleep when it detects a power failure. This
; corresponds to setting this key to "0".
;
; If you want your application to have a particular behavior during
; a power failure, you can set this key to "1" and trap the
; VDDPWROFF event yourself. When you've completed application
; cleanup, issue the VK_OFF keyboard event to go to sleep.
;
; Warning! Your power supply must be able to hold up the 5V power
; long enough to handle your functions and put the system to sleep.
; The Graphics Master needs a minimum of 200ms to go to sleep.
; The supercapacitor circuit on the Rev C Graphics Master works for
; immediate shutdowns, but test carefully if you think your appplication
; will take a long time before going to sleep.
