NOTE: The SDK in ThinOS does not function similar to Teradici zero client firmware. For example, the SDK in ThinOS
does not support USB redirection and Relative Mouse features with the host card connection. This feature is mainly for
workstation users working on the server remotely.
Steps
1. On ThinOS desktop, go to Connect Manager.
2. Click New, and then click PCoIP.
3. In the Connection Settings (PCoIP) dialog box, do the following:
a. Enter the description for the PCoIP connection.
b. Enter the IP address of the remote host card.
c. From the Display Resolution drop-down list, select a display resolution for the PCoIP connection.
TERA2220 supports a single display with 2560 x 1600 resolution or two displays with 1920 x 1080 resolution. TERA2240
supports two displays with 2560 x 1600 resolution, four displays with 1920 x 1080 resolution, or a single display with 3840
x 2160 resolution.
d. Select either the Window mode or Full screen to set the initial view of the session.
e. If you want to automatically connect to the session after you restart the thin client, select the Auto-connect on
start-up check box.
f. Select the Re-connect after disconnect check box if you want to automatically reconnect to a session after the
session is disconnected. If you select this option, enter the wait interval in the Delay before re-connecting box. The
default is 20 seconds.
4. Click OK to save your settings.
For information about the Teradici host cards, see the Host Card documentation at www.teradici.com.
