The Power-LED on the left side glows green when the unit is switched on and remains on until the
unit is switched off.
The Internal Storage Access LED on the right side flickers red when the thin client is accessing the
thin client’s firmware or locally stored applications such as Internet Explorer.
The rear panel of the thin client has two LEDs next to the Network connector.
The green LED flashes when the thin client communicates at 100 Mbps and blinks slowly when
communicating at 10 Mbps.
The yellow LED turns on only when the thin client communicates at 10 Mbps.
NOTE:THE THIN CLIENT,LIKE THE CURRENT PCS,ALWAYS HAS POWER APPLIED TO THE
MOTHERBOARD AS ALONG AS THE POWER TRANSFORMER IS CONNECTED.IN THE STAND BY CONDITION
(POWER LED ON THE FRONT IS OFF,BUT THE GREEN ETHERNET LED WILL BE ON), THE THIN CLIENT
ONLY USES 1WATT OF POWER (WHEN ON AND RUNNING,THE THIN CLIENT USES 20 WATTS).

STANDBY SUPPLY OF POWER IS BEING PROVIDED TO THE MOTHERBOARD.TO COMPLETELY SWITCH OFF
POWER SUPPLY TO THE UNIT,THE EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY HAS TO BE DISCONNECTED.
CAUTION:BE CERTAIN TO EXIT ALL ACTIVE CONNECTIONS PRIOR TO SHUTTING DOWN THE THIN CLIENT.

Thin Client User’s Guide 12

Setup the Thin Client
Setup the Thin Client
This chapter describes the procedure to setup the software of the thin client. This procedure must be
performed by the system administrator. It is assumed the thin client has been installed properly using
the instructions in the previous section.
Step One: Start the Setup Wizard
When you switch the thin client on for the first time or if the thin client has been reset to factory defaults,
a Setup Wizard is automatically started. The wizard will guide you through the process of configuring
the thin client.
9
NOTE:THE SETUP WIZARD IS STARTED AUTOMATICALLY UNDER THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES:
WHEN YOU SWITCH THE THIN CLIENT ON FOR THE FIRST TIME.
W
HEN YOU RESTORE DEFAULT SETTINGS OF THE THIN CLIENT THROUGH THE HGENERALHTAB OF THE
TERMINAL PROPERTIES DIALOG-BOX.
The Setup Wizard has several dialog boxes that display in succession. Some dialog boxes provide
information, while others require input. Every dialog-box contains buttons to take you backward or
forward through the setup process, and to confirm or cancel input and selections.
The first dialog box of the Setup Wizard is shown below. Click Next> to continue.
Thin Client User’s Guide 13

Setup the Thin Client
Step Two: Terminal Name & Network Properties
The above dialog box contains the field where you will enter the name this thin client will identified as to
the network. You may either accept the default name (which is based upon the MAC address of the
network interface component of the thin client), or enter a name of your choice.
NOTE:THE NAME MAY BE UP TO 15 CHARACTERS IN LENGTHS,AND MUST BEGIN WITH AN ALPHA
CHARACTER.
9
You will next need to setup up the IP address of the thin client. This can either be done automatically
by DHCP, or you will need to manually enter a static IP address.
If the IP address is assigned automatically by DHCP, click the Next>button on this screen and skip
to Display Settings section below.
If the IP address is to be a static address (one that does not change), click the Network Properties
button to access the IP address setting screens.
TIP:TO IMPLEMENT LPD PRINTING IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SPECIFY A STATIC IP ADDRESS FOR
THE THIN CLIENT.THIS IS NECESSARY BECAUSE,ON THE SERVER-SIDE YOU MUST SPECIFY THE
IP ADDRESS OF THE THIN CLIENT.IF YOU MUST USE DHCP, THEN IT IS PREFERABLE THAT YOU
RESERVE AN IP ADDRESS ON THE DHCP SERVER,FOR THE THIN CLIENT THAT YOU PLAN TO CONFIGURE
AS THE LPD SERVER.
IP Address
NOTE:IF THE IP ADDRESS IS TO BE SET BY DHCP, SKIP THIS STEP AS THE THIN CLIENT DEFAULTS TO
DHCP FOR ADDRESSING.

By default, the thin client is configured to display at a resolution of 800 x 600 and a refresh frequency of
75Hz.
Select the resolution and refresh rate appropriate for your monitor.
NOTE:IN GENERAL CRT MONITORS CAN HANDLE A RANGE OF RESOLUTIONS AND REFRESH RATES.
HOWEVER,LCD MONITORS PREFER THE RESOLUTION AND REFRESH RATE TO BE SET TO MATCH THEIR
“NATIVE”RESOLUTION.GENERALLY THIS IS 1024 X 728 @60 HZ FOR 15” LCD MONITORS,AND 1280
X 1024 @60 HZ FOR 17” LCD MONITORS
9
If you select a resolution or refresh frequency other than the default setting, verify whether your monitor
supports the selected setting by clicking the Test button.
The following prompt is displayed.
Click OK to continue. A test pattern of black and white boxes will be displayed for about five seconds.
NOTE:MONITORS WITH ON SCREEN DISPLAY (OSD) FEATURE MAY DISPLAY APPROPRIATE MESSAGES
(SUCH AS ‘OUT OF SYNC’OR ‘OUT OF RANGE’)IF THE SELECTED RESOLUTION AND FREQUENCY ARE
NOT SUPPORTED.THE EXACT TEXT OF THE OSD MESSAGE WOULD DEPEND ON THE MODEL OF THE
MONITOR CONNECTED TO THE THIN CLIENT.
