● You cannot use the headset key to pick/end calls. This issue will be resolved in next release.
● Dell does not recommend video call in 4K display resolution on all platforms due to low performance.
● JVDI version in ThinOS 8.6 must be compatible with JVDI agent and Jabber version. For example, JVDI version 12.1 in ThinOS
8.6 supports JVDI agent and Jabber version 12.1.
● Audio output is poor when you enable the JVDI audio during the full screen video call on Wyse 5060 and 3040 thin clients.
This is due to hardware performance limitation. Wyse 5070 thin client supports full screen video call with good audio output.
NOTE: JVDI package is introduced from ThinOS version 8.6 to support Cisco Jabber. You must download the JVDI package
from the Driver and Downloads tab on your respective thin clients page at www.dell.com/support. When you download
the JVDI.zip package, the README WITH EULA.txt and JVDI.i386.pkg files are unzipped. Ensure that you open the readme
file and read the EULA agreement before you deploy the package to the ThinOS client.
For more information about Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI installation procedure, see the Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.6
Administrator's Guide at www.dell.com/support.
NOTE:
● For more details about accessories for camera, headsets, speakers, see www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/unified-
communications/uc_endpoints_accessories.html.
● For more information about the Cisco Jabber issues, see the Release notes for Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI at
www.cisco.com.
● For information about troubleshooting your Cisco Jabber, see the Deployment and Installation Guide for Cisco Jabber
Softphone for VDI at www.cisco.com.
Table 128. Known issues
Issue number Description Workaround
TIR97286 JVDI audio volume slider does not change
the audio volume in Wyse 3040 thin client.
This issue is due to Cisco Jabber limitation.
For more information about the Cisco Jabber
issues, see the Release Notes for Cisco
Jabber Softphone for VDI—Release 12.1

Adjust audio volume by using either
the ThinOS volume bar, session sound
volume, or headset button.

or a black screen is displayed when you play a

ThinOS client and register the JVDI
again.

WdReceiv: trap 14 error occurs when you
enable the ICA session reliability with multiport
in JVDI environment.
Enable ICA session reliability
without enabling multiport in JVDI

TIR97523 Answer/End/Hold options in headset do not
work during the JVDI call.
You can Answer/End/Hold the call by
using the Jabber application in the

switch the DP audio in the JVDI device
selector, the JVDI may re-register again and a

you hotplug or turn off/on the monitor when
using the DP audio in JVDI.

set the DP audio in the ThinOS client
and then launch the ICA session.
