DXR-Z4 Rack-mounted zero client
Quick Start Guide
DXR-Z4 Quick Start Guide v2.0 January 2022
HB-RZR4-0001
Overview
The DXR-Z4 is a PC-over-IP® (PCoIP®) rack-mounted zero client based on the latest
Tera2 chipset. Each zero client supports up to four heads of video at the desktop
and partners with a personality module for connectivity and network options.
V2 and legacy cards
Do not try to physically connect V2 and legacy cards
together. Damage may occur. See picture opposite to identify.
The latest V2 cards have different connectors to the original legacy DXR-Z4 and
personality cards. Put only V2 cards OR legacy cards together in the same slot.
Ideally, if avoidable, do not mix both types of module in the chassis.
Connect the keyboard, mouse and monitors
1. Connect a keyboard to any one of the three USB sockets on the personality
module. See
Figure 2
.
2. Connect a mouse to any one of the three USB sockets on the personality
module. See
Figure 2
.
3. Connect a monitor to the first Mini DisplayPort socket (marked with a single
dot). See
Figure 2
.
4. (Optional) Connect up to three additional monitors as required. See
Figure 2
.
5. Connect the network cables (fiber or copper as required).
6. Secure the cabling as required.
Install the DXR-Z4 zero client card into the rack
The DXR-Z4 card must go in the same number slot at the front of the DXiP chassis
as the companion personality module card in the rear of the DXiP chassis. If the
card is not in the same slot as the module, the zero client will not operate.
Preparation
First configure all remote workstations and PCoIP hosts ready for each DXR-Z4 card
you install. They must have power and be able to connect to the network. You will
need the IP addresses of each of the PCoIP hosts. For full details on how to install
the DXR-Z4, see the
DXR-Z4 Rack-mounted zero client user manual
.
Install the DXR-Z4 personality module into the rack
Install the personality module in the first available slot. If no other modules are
installed, install the module in slot 1.
Note:
If using a split powered rack, you must decide whether to install the first
card in slot 1 or 7, depending on which Power Supply Unit will power the card.

1. Align carefully the DXR-Z4 card with the slot guides in the same number slot as
the installed personality module. See
Figure 3
.
2. Make sure the lever on the front of the card is in the ‘down’ position, out from
the card. See
Figure 3
.
3. Insert the card into the slot until the connector meets the connector of the
back plane and the connector of the personality module.
4. Push the lever into the ‘up’ position, this will install the card fully home.
5. (Optional) Connect headphones and a microphone to the front panel sockets.
6. If the rack has been powered down, turn the power to the rack back on.
