Server Address-
While in managed mode, the thin client will maintain
contact with a management server named
ws-broker.
Use this field to
specify a different hostname or IP address for your management server.
Splash Screen – Timeout-
Use this field to adjust the number of seconds
the splash screen appears on the screen before it times-out and loads the
DeTOS Desktop. Enter a value of
0
to bypass the screen altogether.
Splash Screen – Allow Cancel-
A
Cancel
button is provided on the
splash screen that allows the user to abort the timeout delay. Uncheck
this box to hide the cancel button and force the user to wait the required
amount of time.
NOTE:
The purpose of the splash screen feature is to gracefully handle network latency
that may occur during the thin client’s first contact with a management server during
bootup. This feature becomes vital in the case where you have a management server
applying connections to the thin client that are configured to Autostart on bootup.
