KuKInit is a startup-program included in all Keith & Koep Board Support Packages (Microsoft). Functions and Keys might differ between OS- and Trizeps-versions.
Show and Hide Cursor
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"HideCursor"=dword:0 :Do not hide cursor.
1 :Hide cursor.
2 :Check for USB-mouse and show/hide cursor depending on that.
Launch Custom Applications
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"LaunchCustom" ="application to launch"
"LaunchCmdLine" ="cmd-line to parse to application"
"LaunchDelay" =dword:n :time in ms to wait, before application is launched.
"LaunchExplorerInstead"=dword:0 :Do not launch explorer.exe if application is missing.
1 :Launch explorer.exe if application is missing.
The Launch-keys allow KuKInit to launch a custom application. If you don't want the explorer ( this is the WinCE-desktop) to show up on start, remove it from:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init] "Launch50"
If LaunchExplorerInstead-key is set to 1, the WinCE-desktop will run, if LaunchCustom-application is not found.
Software Input Panel
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"SipOn"=dword:0 :Hide Software-Input-Panel at start.
1 :Show Software-Input-Panel at start.
Processor ID
It sometimes is usefull to change the processor-ID, if applications or drivers complain during install.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"FakeStrongArm"=dword:0 :Use correct processor ID.
1 :Show StrongArm processor ID to applications.
"CEProcessorType"=dword
"CEInstructionSet"=dword
The true processor-type and processor-instruction-set is stored in:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT] "DefaultCEProcessorType"=dword "DefaultCEInstructionSet"=dword
Auto-Starts and Auto-Update
KuKinit attempts to automatically run application from connected storage-media. This can be your custom application or it can be an update-program. To control autostart use these registry-keys:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"BreakKeys"="virtual key-code" :Virtual key, which would inhibit automatic start.
"NoAutoStart"=dword:0 :Allow automatic start of updates and applications.
1 :Don't autostart applications or updates.
The following load-order is used. Only the first found is run.
\SDMMC Card\update.bat
\SDMMC Card\update.exe
\Storage Card\update.bat
\Storage Card\update.exe
\Hard Disk\update.bat
\Hard Disk\update.exe
\Flashdisk\autoexec.bat
\Flashdisk\auto.exe
\Flashdisk\auto.vb
KuKInit special USB-settings
USB-Slave
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"ShowUsbFnMsc"=dword:0 :Don't show USB-Icon in taskbar (default).
1 :Show icon in taskbar, if usb-slave is configured as mass-storage-device.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"ActSyncAutoSer"=dword:0 :Don't connect to ActiveSync, if USB-cable is attached.
1 :Automatically run ActiveSync, if USB-cable is attached.
USB-Host
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT]
"ReEnumeratePorts"=dword:0 :Don't Reenumerate USB-Ports (default).
1 :Re-Enumerate port 1.
2 :Re-Enumerate port 2.
3 :Re-Enumerate both ports.
Touch Calibration
On default KuKInit calls the calibration-application, when
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH] "CalibrationData"="....."
does not exist. After successfull calibration this key is created.
To override this you can put a file named 'Calibrate' or 'NoCalibrate' on a store. If it is found in \SDMMC Card, \Storage Card, \Hard Disk or \Flashdisk, this setting is used.
WLAN-Settings (Windows Embedded Compact 7 / 2013)
As of Compact7, the OS uses the Connection-Manager instead of Wireless-Zero-Config to manage wireless configurations. The XML-file used is the same, as on the big Desktop Windows.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\KUKINIT] "WlanProfile"="-silent -cmsave -f \\flashdisk\\wlanprofile.xml" "WlanEnableDelay"=dword:1770
WlanProfile:
Parameter passed to KWlantool.exe, to load a WLAN-Profile during startup.
If you use the taskbar-wlan-tool, the configuration will be stored to \Windows\wlan\CommonAppData\Microsoft\Wlansvc\Profiles\Interfaces\{<Interface GUID>}\{<Profile GUID>}.xml. In this sample you may store <Profile GUID>.xml to \flashdisk\wlanprofile.xml.
WlanEnableDelay:
Time in milli-seconds to delay loading of profile.
