Advanced Configuration
The thin client includes the ability to customize the various configuration options. These include display
values, network connectivity, ICA and RDP options, etc.
This can be done either at the thin client or remotely using the I-O Configuration Utility.
I-O Configuration Utility
When using the I-O Configuration Utility, you will actually be using a keyboard and screen shadowning
process called VNC. This means that the on the PC running the I-O Configuration Utility, you will see
the actual screens on the thin client. Because the PC controls the keyboard and mouse on the thin
client, you can run the thin client remotely as if you were sitting right in front of the thin client. Note that
there will be a slight delay as the screens are being repainted on the PC – it takes a few moments for
the screens to be compressed and transmitted to the PC.
1. On the PC, start the I-O Configuration Utility. The local subnet will be scanned and will display a
listing of I-O Corporation devices. For remote sub-nets, set the scan options on the View | Scan
Options screen to display the devices.
2. Highlight the desired thin client and click the ( Open Device Configuration )
button. Alternately, you may double click the desire entry.
3. The VNC screen will appear and after a few seconds, the currently display screen on the thin client
will be displayed. From this point the mouse and keyboard on the PC are controlling the thin client.
As screens change on the thin client, they will be sent to the PC.
