Preface
This manual describes the C language-dedicated library functions and utilities that run on the CASIO
PA-2400W (hereinafter referred to as "H/PC", which stands for Handheld PC).
The PA-2400W uses the Windows CE operating system (Ver. 2.11), and uses the Win32 API functions to
generate user application programs. However, more functions may be required if generating a business
application, etc.
The C language-dedicated library functions and utilities described in this manual are used to support
functions that are not supported by the API functions.
Information about the Win32 API functions can be retrieved using the Help function in the Windows
95 system.

Notes:
1. Since the “SIPanel.dll” and “SIPanel.exe” in English version are pre-installed in the ROM, you do not
need to install it every time you use the software input panel. However, if you use other language
versions of the SIPanel, you need to replace them.
2. Each library function or utility command can be made available to the user when the DLL/EXE file is
copied into the Windows directory on the PA-2400W (see the figure below).
