Configuring the 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/XenApp, you can control options such as maximum
resolution and frames per second (10 FPS is recommended).
By default, the format of USB camera is set to RAW.
NOTE:
You can optimize performance and modify the frame rate per second, if the Optimize for CPU check box is not 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).
Also, this feature is CPU intensive and is recommended for high performance products.
Configuring the touch screen settings
Use the Touch Screen tab to configure touch screens that are connected to the thin client. The tab is available (not grayed
out) when the thin client detects that a touch screen is attached through a USB port or a serial port, and the setup or
calibration has not been performed. The Touch Setup window prompts you to touch two circles on the screen to make the
necessary calibration adjustment. The adjusted calibrated values are saved in the local terminal NVRAM until the system is reset
to factory default, or another type of touch monitor is connected.
NOTE:
From ThinOS version 8.5, the ELO touch screen does not work in certain scenarios. For more information, see the
latest Dell Wyse ThinOS Release Notes.
Configuring the Bluetooth settings
The Bluetooth feature helps you to connect your thin client with Bluetooth enabled devices such as headsets and mouses.
ThinOS supports both Intel wireless chipset 7260 and 7265. For mouse, keyboard, and headset, ThinOS supports both Bluetooth
3.0 and 4.0.
Bluetooth 4.0 supports Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). However, Bluetooth Alternate MAC/PHY (AMP) is not
supported.
