How to use WEC7 Remote Display ( cerdisp ) in Beaglebone?

Has anyone tried Remote Display on Beaglebone?

TI WinCE-BSP ARM-A8 User Guide (adeneo-embedded) says, Windows Desktop was tested using remote display. but there is no steps on how to use it.

Has any one used/tried remote display on beaglebone before?  if yes, then please share the steps to enable and use remote display.

I was able to start the cerdisp on the device and  cerhost running on the host PC was able to detect the device and connected, however there was nothing visible on the cerhost screen.

Have anyone come across similar situation, then please share experience..

Thanks in Advance

  • Yes, it's always the same problem with cerdisp, ect.

    Try to add this entry to your registry:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CERDISP]
    "Hostname"="ppp_p-eer"

    ; Telnet
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TELNETD]
    "IsEnabled "=dword:1
    "UseAuthentication"=dword:0

  • Hello dasco,


    Here are some instructions on how to enable and use CE Remote Display:

    Make sure to include it in your build by setting the SYSGEN_CERDISP catalog item and sysgening again. If you still cannot see your device's frame buffer properly, you may need to use the NOPDISP driver instead of the BSP's standard display driver.

    It may be easier to just use a different tool, such as My Mobiler.
