Overview

Introduction

1.1 Introduction

Desktop virtualization provides a new perspective to reconsider the design and implementation of an IT infrastructure. In a desktop virtualization infrastructure, a station is no longer a cumbersome desktop, but simply an endpoint device for users to access delivery services from the server(s).

With the introduction of the desktop virtualization technologies, you can considerably benet from:

• Centralized management of work environments

• Drastically reduced endpoint software/hardware issues

• Application/Desktop access across different platforms

• Simplied system maintenance

• Improved system security

• More scalability with low-cost endpoint devices

1.2 Features

The key features of ViewSonic SC-T45 thin clients are:

• Support for a wide range of desktop virtualization solutions from industry-leading companies: Ź Microsoft® Remote Desktop

Ź Citrix® XenApp™, XenDesktop®, and VDI-in-a-Box™ Ź VMware® View™

• Support for high-denition technologies: Ź Microsoft® RemoteFX®

Ź Citrix® HDX™ Ź VMware® View™ PCoIP®

• Simple click-access to various applications/desktops

• Built-in ViewSonic Client Setup as the local client management application

1.7 Before Getting Started

About FBWF (File-Based Write Filter)

Before getting started on client conguration through the ViewSonic Client Setup software or through the Windows Embedded Standard operating system, please note that any changes to the system in a session will not be kept by default after the system restart. This is due to a special feature called FBWF (File-Based Write Filter) in your Windows Embedded-based system.

You can change the default via the ViewSonic Client Setup software. It’s strongly recommended that you read the related section in this ViewSonic Client Setup User’s Manual rst before making any changes to your system.

WARNING

• Please read the following section FIRST before making any changes to your system: “3.2.8 Conguring FBWF (File-Based Write Filter)” on page 27.

About Default User Accounts

There are two default user accounts for your Windows Embedded-based system: one is the standard, the other administrative. The default credentials are shown as follows:

Type Account Name Password

Administrator Administrator Administrator

Standard user User User

NOTE

• The passwords are case sensitive.

Overview

Quick Service Access with your SC-T45

About the Behavior of System Startup

Every time when the system is started up, it will automatically log in to the Windows Embedded operating system using the default standard user account as indicated in the preceding table about default user accounts.

1.8 Quick Service Access with your SC-T45

With ViewSonic SC-T45, you can simply access desktop virtualization solutions from Microsoft, Citrix, and VMware, by mouse-clicking. Two types of access shortcuts are available: standard and customized. The former is available on the desktop by default; the latter can be created and customized through the ViewSonic Client Setup software.

Custom Desktop Shortcuts

Detailed instructions on how to create and customize your service access shortcuts are provided in this User’s Manual for SC-T45. With ViewSonic Client Setup, you can customize the desktop of your SC-T45 to meet your plan for desktop virtualization.

Changing the Display Language for your SC-T45

3.6 Changing the Display Language for your SC-T45

This section will guide you through the process of changing the display language for your SC-T45.

NOTE

• The installed version of Windows Embedded Standard 7 on your SC-T45 supports only single display language. You are not allowed to install multiple language packs and switch between different display languages through Control Panel. However, you can change the default display language (English) to another supported language if needed.

To change the display language for your SC-T45, please do the following:

1. Turn on your SC-T45.

2. The system will automatically log in to the Windows Embedded operating system using the default standard user account.

NOTE

• There are two default user accounts for your Windows Embedded-based system: one is the standard, the other administrative. The default credentials are shown as follows:

Type Account Name Password

Administrator Administrator Administrator Standard user User User

• Every time when the system is started up, it will automatically log in to the Windows Embedded operating system using the default standard user account as indicated above.

• The FBWF (File-Based Write Filter) feature is enabled by factory default.

• Connect an external CD/DVD drive to your SC-T45, and then insert the accompanying CD that contains the desired language pack to the CD/DVD drive, or

• Copy the desired language pack from that CD to a USB ash drive, and then insert the ash drive to your SC-T45.

9. Locate the desired language pack le (ZIP format) on the accompanying CD or your USB ash drive.

10. Right-click on the pack le, and then click Extract All on the pop-up menu.

11. Extract the pack le to a folder on the desktop or USB ash drive.

12. Locate Install on the folder, and then double-click it to execute.
