1 Welcome to Dell Wyse 3040 thin client Dell Wyse 3040 thin client is a low-cost entry level thin client platform. These thin clients have a x86 processor, which allows you to run Wyse ThinOS, PCoIP enabled Wyse ThinOS, and Wyse ThinLinux. The platform is used as a thin client by connecting to any monitor and allows you to use a remote access client for VDI or cloud-based computing.
2 Wyse 3040 thin client hardware installation For more information on the hardware installation, see Dell Wyse 3040 thin client Quick Start Guide.
3 Wyse 3040 thin client on ThinOS This section provides the instructions on how to easily configure and efficiently manage Wyse 3040 thin client that runs on ThinOS.
This feature is applicable for supported dual-monitor-capable thin clients only. a) Dual Head—Select Mirror Mode to have the two monitors work in a matching state, or Span Mode to have the two monitors work individually. b) Main Screen—Select which of the two monitors you want to be the main screen (Screen1 or Screen2). The other screen is extended from the main screen. c) Layout—Select how you want the two monitors to be oriented to each other.
For Swap dual screens, when you set Main Screen to Screen2, an additional check box is displayed at the bottom of the tab that allows you to swap dual screens. If you clear the check box, the Screen1 is usually the left one or the top one in dual display. When you set Main Screen to Screen2, the main screen is changed to the right screen or bottom screen.
1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Network Setup. The Network Setup dialog box is displayed. 2. Click the General tab, and use the following guidelines: a) To set the default gateway, select the type of network interface from the available options. 1. Single Network support — Either wireless or wired network is connected. • • • ENET — Click this option, if you want set up the Ethernet Wired Network Connection.
Use of WINS is optional. Enter the network address of an available WINS name server. WINS allows you to specify remote systems by their host names rather than IP addresses. If a specific IP address (instead of a name) is entered for a connection, it is used to make the connection. These entries can be supplied through DHCP, if DHCP is used. DNS and WINS provide essentially the same function, name resolution.
• • • Wait DHCP — Selecting this option enables your thin client to wait for IPV6 DHCP before the sign-in, if not selected the system will only wait for IPV4 DHCP if enabled. Dynamically allocated over DHCP/BOOTP — Selecting this option enables your thin client to automatically receive information from the DHCP server. The network administrator must configure the DHCP server (using DHCP options) to provide information.
a) Add— Use this option to add and configure a new SSID connection. You can configure the SSID connection from the available security type options. b) After you configure the SSID connection, the added SSID connection is listed on the page of the WLAN tab. c) Remove — Use this option, if you want to remove a SSID connection by selecting the SSID connection from the list. d) Properties — Use this option to view and configure the authentication properties of a SSID connection that is displayed in the list.
3. Select the Swap left and right mouse buttons check box to swap mouse buttons for left-handed operations. 4. Click OK to save the settings. Configuring camera settings Use the Camera tab to interface with cameras that are locally connected to the thin client (USB) and supported by a UVC driver. When using the HDX RealTime webcam feature of XenDesktop 5 or XenApp 6, you can control options such as maximum resolution and frames per second (10 FPS is recommended).
You can optimize performance and modify the frame rate per second, if the Optimize for CPU check box is selected— supported values include 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, and 1/6– directly from the thin client (if the webcam supports Universal Video Driver). This feature is experimental and does not currently support central configuration (INI parameters).
takes place either through a printer-mapping file read by the system as part of the global profile (wnos.ini) or by MetaFrame servers through the MetaFrame printer configuration file (\winnt\system32\wtsprnt.inf). NOTE: The maximum characters allowed in the Printer Identification field is 31. If your printer driver string is more than 31 characters (including space), you can create a txt file (printer.txt) and upload to your file server.
This name must be either the device driver name for the printer under the Microsoft Windows system, or a key to map to the device driver. If not specified, the name will be defaulted to the printer-supplied identification for standard direct-connected USB printers or Generic / Text for non-USB connected printers upon connection to Windows hosts. The driver name mapping takes place either through a printer-mapping file read by the system as part of the global profile (wnos.
b) Printer Name—(Required) Enter the name to be displayed in your list of printers. c) Printer Identification—Enter the type or model of the printer in the exact text of the Windows printer driver name—including capitalizations and spaces. d) e) f) g) This name must be either the device driver name for the printer under the Microsoft Windows system, or a key to map to the device driver.
Configuring the Citrix UPD printer Use of Citrix Universal Printer Driver (Citrix UPD) ensures that all printers connected to a client can also be used from a virtual desktop or application session without integrating a new printer driver in the data center. Citrix UPD is the base of Citrix Universal Printer. It is an auto-created printer object that uses the Citrix UPD and is not tied to any specific printer defined on the client. To configure the Citrix UPD usage on ThinOS: 1.
2. Click Citrix Resources > XenApp > Policies > User > Settings > Printing > Client Printers and enable the Auto-create generic universal printer. 3. Click Printing > Drivers and set the Universal print driver usage to Use universal printing only from the drop-down menu available.
4. To enable the printer policy in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7.5 and later versions, do the following: a. Go to the Citrix DDC server, 1. Click Citrix studio > policies and add a policy. Enable the Auto-create generic universal printer option. 2. Set the Universal print driver usage to Use universal printing only from the drop-down menu. b. Check registry and make sure the same driver has been installed.
1. Check the drivers in registry of the server or desktop which you want to connect. The server or desktop must have ps, pcl5, pcl4 drivers in the registry and the same driver must be installed on the server or desktop. 2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\UniversalPrintDrivers\. ThinOS does not support EMF and XPS. NOTE: The supported drivers in the following table are one of the supported drivers for Citrix UPD used in ThinOS. One of the recommended driver is provided here as an example.
