J2 Health Monitor
Overview
The J2 Health Monitoring software provides a common method for a user’s software
application to access the J2 system PC Health hardware, to check that the hardware is
operating within specification. This easily allows applications to access hardware
parameters, such as system voltages, processor and system temperatures.
The application does not need to access any hardware directly. All newer J2 touch screen
computers are supported by this software. It can also be used as a standalone program for
diagnostic purposes.
Hardware Supported
The J2 Hardware monitor software currently supports the J2 POS computers models
520M2, 560RT, 560IR, 580 (all) and the 650 (all) versions. The program auto detects the
system type. The number of registry keys will vary depending on the systems type. Other
J2 hardware support will be added as needed.
Operating System Supported
Windows Vista, Windows XP, XP Embedded, and WEPOS are supported, including the
versions of XPE and WEPOS running on Compact Flash. There is a separate version of
the program for Windows CE 5.0 and 6.0.
Linux is not supported by this program but J2 would be happy to provide the information
to write a similar program for Linux.
Hardware/Software Requirements
There are no special hardware requirements however the program only runs on J2
hardware mentioned above. The J2 Hardware Monitoring program does require .NET
Framework 2.0 or higher to be installed.
Installing Health Monitor
The J2 Health Monitor install program Setup J2 Health.exe is a self extracting program
and will install the program under Program Files\J2 Retail Systems\Health\.
