2 Introduction
Together with THINTUNE you are provided a thin client, which is adapted to the most recent technological demands. The
complete experience and innovational ideas of our customers since the beginning of thin client computing have been
taken into consideration throughout the development of the device.
We point out that this documentation is exclusively meant to help you configure and install the device according to your
needs. Any further information as well as detailed descriptions, especially concerning the function of Meta Frame and the
ICA-protocol, respectively explanations concerning the understanding of a TCP/IP-protocol are not taken into
consideration.
This documentation addresses system-administrators and experienced users and requires administration knowledge in
domain of UNIX and NT as well as applicational experience of network protocols TCP/IP and the ICA-protocol. It includes
the description of all functions as well as appropriate configuration possibilities of the THINTUNE thin client. The
explanations concern any member of the THINTUNE- product family, as:
THINTUNE XS Entry-level Thin Client
THINTUNE S Standard THINTUNE
THINTUNE M Enhanced graphics
THINTUNE L High End solution
THINTUNE Mobile Mobile Thin Client
Terminal Emulation Suite Suite of terminal emulations (available by options only)
Basically in the following, functional and configurational options of standard THINTUNE are described in detail. Should
further explications concerning other members of the THINTUNE product line be required, we will explicitly point to this
fact.
All members of the THINTUNE product line, are available as a „plus“- version as well. In comparison with a native
THINTUNE the respective „plus“ version concerned includes several terminal emulations (i.e. IBM 3270, IBM 5250, SNI
97801, SCO ANSI, VT up to 420). The functional range as well as the possibilities for configuration of the single terminal
emulations are not part of this manual. A detailed description of terminal emulations implemented into THINTUNE is
available under http://www.thintune.com.
THINTUNE Thin Clients are constantly refined corresponding to market- and customer needs by eSeSIX Computer Ltd.
Except for optional extension possibilities THINTUNE hardware is strictly defined, so that extension concerning functional
range or improvement of performance features are only possible via software-extension, the so- called firmware-
upgrades. Constantly updated firmware is to be acquired via internet http://www.thintune.com. As a rule new firmware
versions are free of charge, unless they include feature-sets the price of which is indicated.
Design and concept of THINTUNE correspond to the needs of the user, but on the other hand they also concentrate on
the necessity of providing a modular and highly flexible device for the market. This is why an Embedded Linux has been
chosen as internal operating system. This makes sure that the implementation of future demands appear realizable.
THINTUNE is a multi-session/multi-host client with integrated ICA-, RDP, AIP- and X11-clients, which can be started
simultaneously in several independent sessions.

4 The THINTUNE Control-Center
The THINTUNE control center is the central control unit of the thin client which enables you to configure the device
entirely. Any parameters defined during the operation of the setup-wizzard can be modified here later on. Furthermore
the control-center enables the configuration of sessions required by the user. The control-center is started either from the
THINTUNE desktop or by clicking the right key of the mouse.
By means of the THINTUNE control center you can activate and configure any function of the THINTUNE. Basically the
menu tabs of the control center of THINTUNE lets you decide which part of THINTUNE settings you want to configures:
oThe Connections menu lets you choose and setup the required sessions such ICA-, or RDP-sessions
oWithin the SYSTEM tab area you might configure your THINTUNE-workspace such like the button-bar or desktop
appearance.
oThe Devices area of THINTUNE allows you to set up all internal and external hardware which either is included
with THINTUNE or externally is connected to THINTUNE. This area also is to determine all network related settings.
oThe Administrative menu is basically to setup all mechanism for reflashing the terminal (firmware updates).
Options which are offered by the File menu in the menu bar of the control center lets you either exit the control center,
or reset all settings to the factory settings. If your THINTUNE is equipped with an eToken you might want to read a

13
THINTUNE configuration from the eToken or to save the current configuration onto the eToken. With the menu option
Systemlog you might take a look into the log files of THINTUNE. However, usage of the Systemlog option is
recommended for administrative use only.
)Information
A special feature of the THINTUNE control center is the immediate
activation of modifications, not requiring a reboot. As soon as the
function „Save local“ is chosen in the menu „File“ modifications
become active. For certain parameters this is done by means of the
apply-button.
4.1 Client Configuration Window
Prior to the description of the clients itself this section is intended to in general describe the functionality of the
Client Configuration Window. The Client Configuration Window pops up whenever you double-click on one of the
entries of the Connections section in order to define and setup a THINTUNE session. Use of the Client Configuration
Windows is identical regardless which kind of session and which kind of client you are using. The following example
will show you how to setup an ICA-Session.
The icon-bar of the Client Configuration Window offers you several options:
This is the General Settings menu which basically opens the client configuration menu
and lets you choose options to in general define the appearance of this session. All
sessions of the according client will be assigned with the params you define within this
dialog. However, if some sessions of this clients need to be setup individually you of
course can do so within each session which is created.
Creates a new session
Lets you edit the properties of the selected session.
Deletes the selected session entry

14
5 Connections Tab
The Connections menu not only lets you choose the desired client but also allows you to setup a THINTUNE session under
use of the selected client. THINTUNE offers you several clients:
Autostart
ICA-Client
Opera-Client
Power Term-Client
RDP-Client
RDP-Pro
REXEC-Client
Telnet-Client
Tarantella-Client
XDM-Client
)Information
Basically THINTUNE allows you to drive as many sessions as you
want. However, be notified that the number of concurrent sessions
is limited to the amount of RAM which comes along with
THINTUNE.
5.1 Autostart Menu
The Autostart feature offers you to directly start one or more sessions when powering up THINTUNE. Autostart
sessions will start without any user interaction. This feature is intended if you want to prevent users from getting in
touch with the local THINTUNE desktop. Basically THINTUNE offers you as many Autostart sessions as you want.
Default If you check this option the selected session automatically will be launched after THINTUNE
is powered on.
There are no limitations in how many sessions you setup as an Autostart session. Any kind of session can be
defined as an Autostart session.
Default The session selected automatically will be launched when the unit is
powered on
Single Session Mode This mode lets you start one session only. This mode also is known as Kiosk Mode.

15
Respawn after
disconnect After exiting this session the user will be prompted to login again
Run once-power off After exiting this session THINTUNE shuts down automatically
)Information
If you setup an Autostart session in single mode you will not be
able to get back to local THINTUNE functions such like the control
center. To get back to local THINTUNE functions you might use the
Fail Save Mode. By pressing F7 during THINTUNE boot you will get
back to the THINTUNE desktop.
5.2 ICA Client Menue
5.2.1 General ICA Settings

16
All parameters set in this menu operate as global standard for all ICA-sessions, which are immediately set
up.
Enable Windows Alert Sounds
Enables or disables alert sounds in case of warnings of Windows or
Windows applications within remote sessions.
ICA-Acceleration Activates or deactivates the ICA acceleration for the THINTUNE.
Allow backing store If the option backing store is activated, the cache of the X-server can
be used by the ICA client in order to ameliorate performance
drastically.
Use server redraw Server redraw is also a function of the x-server which uses the
intelligence of the x-server in order to draw bitmaps (for instance when
movingwindows) without slowing down the NT server or the network.
Disable info box
before connecting Diables or enables start-up message (Connecting to......)
Use asynchronous COM Switches the COM-port to asynchronous communication
port polling
Allow smart card logon This option is to be selected if you want smart card logon capabilities
which are provided by Citrix.
5.2.1.1 Drive Mapping Tab
Map local floppy on drive Determines the drive letter for the internal floppy drive which is
assigned to the drive available in an ICA session. This option is
supported only if an internal floppy drive is available with THINTUNE
Map USB flash reader on drive
Determines the drive letter for the external USB CD-ROM drive which is
assigned to the drive available in an ICA session. This option is
supported only if an external USB CD-ROM is available with
THINTUNE.

17
Map USB CD-ROM on drive Determines the drive letter for the external CD-ROM drive which is
assigned to the drive available in an ICA session. This option is
supported only if an external CD-ROM drive (via USB) is available with
THINTUNE
Map Remote Filesystem Determines the drive letter for network drives which is assigned to the
drive available in an ICA session. Links to remote file systems can be
created in Systems menu with the option Create Remote Filesystem.
This option is supported only if an external USB CD-ROM is available
with THINTUNE.
Enable Drive Cache Enables drive cache of ICA client
5.2.1.2 Window Tab
Default Window Colors Here the number of colors used by THINTUNE can be defined.
)Information
With the THINTUNE you can display up to 65535 colors.
Default 256 Color Mapping
This parameter is applied if you only want to depict 256 colors! You
define if the THINTUNE really is to work with 256 colors or which other
number of colors is required.
Default Window Size
The window size of your ICA session can be defined without
restrictions. Corresponding to your instructions you can predefine a
window size in pixel or specify the percentage of the desktop which is
used by the ICA window. Of course full screen sessions may also be
defined.

18
5.2.1.3 Server Location Tab
TCP/IP Addresses Address entries in this field are only realized if one or more Citrix
servers are behind a router, because the server browsing offered by the
ICA protocol does not work across a router. You can enter the name of
a server by means of which the THINTUNE is enabled to offer a list of
available Citrix servers respectively the available applications.
HTTP addresses From the Service Pack 2 for MetaFrame the http-browser-service is part
of MetaFrame. Http-browsing can thus be used as an alternative to
previous browser services of the ICA protocol! Http-browser-services
are preferably used for ICA server browsing via internet and can only
be applied in case Citrix XML service has been started.
5.2.1.4 Firewall Tab
Use alternate address for
firewall connections This checkbox should preferably be activated only in case you search a
Citrix server and/or published applications, which are to be found
behind a firewallfrom the viewpoint of the client.

19
Socks Proxy Connection In order to establish the direct connection of an ICA session to an ICA
server across a firewall the option SOCKS-proxy connection has to be
activated. Thus the address of the adequate proxy server has to be
entered.
5.2.2 Printer Tab
The printer settings lets you use the Citrix mechanism Auto Printer Creation with THINTUNE as well. The
list of available printers is according to those printers which are available under Windows 2000. Basically you
might enter optional names.
5.2.3 Setting up ICA Sessions
The menu you obtain if you want to modify an existing session is identical with the menu that is shown if you
configure a session for the first time.
