PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The RBT Series and TBT-1000 thin clients provides a powerful, simple, and affordable solution to
desktop computing. The RBT series and the TBT-1000 Ethernet terminals offer the very best TN5250e
and TN3270e emulation available for a LAN environment in a Windows-enabled text-based terminal.
10ZiG thin clients and terminals are simple to configure either locally or remotely using the 10ZiG
Manager, which enables the following tasks:
•Complete terminal configuration from a central location, including terminal emulation settings
•User lock-out from configuration changes, keeping the cost of ownership down
•Shadowing of the user's desktop
•Cloning of user environments
•Control over which applications can be run on a particular terminal
INTRODUCTION TO CONFIGURATION
RBT/TBT thin clients support five modes of operation:
•TBT Mode – Text Based Terminal
•Desktop – Windows XP look & feel (recommended!)
•WBT – Windows Based Terminal (supporting full-screen only)
•KIOSK – Restricted desktop that limits access to a specific connection.
•XDM - X Windows System

CONFIGURING THE RBT/TBT
- Text Based Mode
Upon first boot the unit will display a progress bar with Press Spacebar To Enter Text Based Terminal
Mode displayed above it. If the spacebar is pressed at this time you will be taken to the QUICK
SETUP screen in TBT mode. The TBT-1000 will by default boot in Text Based Terminal mode.
QUICK SETUP: To navigate between fields on this screen you will use the TAB key. To change a
value in a field use the Page Up and Page Down keys on your keyboard.

7
NETWORK:
Use DHCP: If you answer YES, the thin client will pull a DHCP address. If you answer NO, the
four fields below will need to be completed.
IP Address: If you answered NO to use DHCP, you will need to enter the IP address for this unit
in this field. If you answered YES to use DHCP, the IP address the unit has been assigned by the
DHCP server will be displayed.
Subnet Mask: If you answered NO to use DHCP, you will need to enter the Subnet Mask in this
field. If you answered Yes to use DHCP, the Subnet Mask the unit has been assigned by the
DHCP server will be displayed.
Default Gateway: If you answered NO to use DHCP, you will need to enter the IP address of your
default gateway. If you answered Yes to use DHCP, the default gateway the unit has been
assigned by the DHCP server will be displayed.
Primary DNS Server IP Address: If you answered NO to use DHCP, you will need to enter a
Primary DNS Server IP address if used. If you answered Yes to use DHCP, the Primary DNS
Server IP Address the unit has been assigned by the DHCP server will be displayed.
iSeries/AS400:
In this section you will enter information for your iSeries/AS/400 5250 sessions.
Sessions: This is where you can specify the number of display sessions needed. The RBT and
TBT support 8 5250 sessions in desktop mode. In TBT mode they support 4 display sessions and
1 printer session.
Device Name Prefix: This is the prefix that will be given to your 5250 sessions when created on
the iSeries/AS/400. The maximum number of characters is five. To complete the logical device
name, a sequence number is appended to the prefix name. This sequence number is unique
among all defined device instances using the same prefix name.
Keyboard Type: You can choose PC for a standard 101/104 key keyboard or Terminal for a 101/
104 key keyboard. Terminal will map the ENTER key to Field Exit and the Right CTRL key to
ENTER.
Keyboard Language: Used to set your keyboard language.
Host Name/IP: Enter the IP address of the iSeries/AS/400 or the DNS name of the iSeries/AS/
400. If entering a DNS name, the Primary DNS Server information is used.

8
Printer: If there is a locally attached printer that will be used as a 5250 printer session, enter YES
and enter the printer name. Select the closest match printer driver listed.
To SAVE the changes in the QUICK SETUP screen press F3.

CONFIGURING THE RBT
Setup Wizard in desktop mode
If the spacebar is not pressed during the bootup, the Setup Wizard will run.

11

12
Once the configuration wizard has finished, configuration of Thin Client Linux terminal is accomplished
by launching the Terminal Configuration Utility from the main toolbar by selecting
(START) -Settings - Terminal Properties or by right clicking on the desktop and selecting Terminal
Properties..
The Terminal Configuration Utility is divided into a number of functionally distinct tab pages as
described in the following pages.

13
Terminal Properties – General Tab
The General page displays the firmware revision as well as the Thin Client hardware configuration.
Checking the Restore the terminal parameters to factory default will reset all terminal parameters
to the default state. Upon rebooting the terminal the Terminal Configuration Setup Wizard will appear.
Factory defaults can also be reset from the terminal itself by pressing SHIFT-CTL-ALT F or from the
remote terminal manager by right clicking on the unit and selecting Special Functions - Factory Default.
Enable Fast Boot/Desktop Restore is enabled by default on the TBT-1000. This option causes the
TBT-1000 to suspend rather than turn off when the power button is pressed allowing quick recovery of
desktop.

14
Terminal Properties – NetworkTab
The Network Configuration page allows the user to set the network specific parameters of the
Thin Client. If you have a DHCP server on your network, select the Obtain IP address from a
DHCP server option; this allows the network configuration to be performed automatically by a
DHCP server resident on your LAN. The information typically provided by the DHCP server
includes the IP address and gateway.
The terminal name can be changed by modifying the Terminal Name field.

15
If you do not have a DHCP server on the network, the IP address and gateway must be set manually.
Access Advanced Parameters by clicking on the Advanced Parameters option.

16
Advanced Parameters page allows for setting the DNS server to enable the browser to resolve
host addresses. This most likely would be used only when you set the IP address manually.
If Insert Static IP address is selected you will not see the DHCP Log File and DHCP Leases
options.

17
The Host Table may be used to set the host table; this table associates IP addresses with logical
names.
A Hosts Table entry might be used for example to access a web page by domain name when a
DNS server is not accessible.
The Ping Function may be used to ping other terminals or servers on the network to verify the
network connection.

19
Configure Wireless NIC
From the Terminal Properties Network tab select Advanced Parameters.

20
The Wireless Parameters option does not appear unless the unit recognizes it has a wireless NIC.
Select Wireless Parameters
