What is Client Monitor?
Client Monitor is a new type of monitor that can be used as a general monitor and can also be
used as a terminal by connecting it to a host PC with a LAN connection so that you can use a
Client Monitor to access the Internet, create a document and edit an image file.
In addition, you can connect an external storage device (e.g. DSC, MP3, external storage, etc.)
to the USB port and enjoy music, video and games saved on the device.
Moreover, you can display your screen on another display device such as a projector through the
VGA OUT port so that the monitor can be utilized for various purposes such as video
conferences, joint-work, etc.
In addition, since Win CE is integrated within the monitor, you can search the Internet or USB
memory independently without connecting it to the host PC.

Connecting a Client Monitor
1) Connect to the host PC using a LAN cable
1. Connect the power cord to the power terminal at the back of the monitor.
2. Connect the mouse and the keyboard to the USB ports.
3. Connect the LAN port on the back of the monitor and the hub.
4. Connect the hub and the LAN port of the host PC.

zThe host PC must have an IP address.
zAfter connecting the LAN and setting the IP address, you can view the
host PC screen on the monitor.
zUse the VGA IN port to directly connect the monitor to a PC.
zConnect to the VGA OUT port to display the same picture on another
monitor such as the projector. (For presentation purposes)
zUse the USB port to connect an external storage device (e.g. DSC, MP3,
external storage, etc.).
2) Setup Client Monitor
The Thin Client Setup Wizard is executed when a thin client is installed for the first time, data are
not backed up after update, or the Reset the terminal to factory default settings check box is
checked on Control Panel -> System. The Thin Client Setup Wizard helps configure basic
settings. The procedure for this is as follows:

1. When starting the system for the first time, the Thin Client Setup Wizard is launched as
shown below. If Next is not clicked during the 15 second countdown after the first 30
seconds, all settings are configured to the factory defaults and the setup wizard is exited.
2. When entering a terminal name and clicking on Network Properties, the Network
Manager dialog box is displayed. This dialog box shows a list of adapters installed on your
terminal. You can change the properties of an adaptor, such as the IP address and name
server, by clicking on Properties.
Click Next to proceed to the next step.

3. Configure the resolution, the color settings, and the screensaver. Then click Next.
4. Select the shell interface to use with the terminal.
Click Next to proceed to the next step.

5. In the next window, set the other terminal properties and click on Next.
For more information on terminal properties, refer to Configuring the Client Monitor
Environment .
6. If you want to change any of the settings you have configured, click on Back or click on
Finish to complete the Setup Wizard.
The thin client then completes the Setup Wizard and restarts the terminal automatically.

3) Connecting to the Host PC
You can add, edit or remove connections using the Terminal Connection Manager (Thin Client
Shell)or the icon/menus on the Desktop. However, this function requires administrator privileges.
If you logged on as a limited user, the menus for configuring connections are hidden or
deactivated.
If you click the Add button or the Add New Connection menu on the Terminal Connection
Manager, the New Connection window is displayed. If you select a connection to create and click
OK, the Connection Wizard is executed.
