Using DisplayPort audio
Use the DisplayPort (DP) interface to connect your thin clients to the display devices. The interface can include audio signals in
the same cable as the video signals. To enable the DisplayPort audio, ensure that you set up the following components:
● A thin client that supports DisplayPort audio and/or dual mode with audio.
● A display device, such as monitor, that supports audio playback in ICA, RDP, Blast, or the PCoIP sessions.
● An analog audio device or a monitor built-in speaker.
To enable the DisplayPort audio on ThinOS:
1. Set up a monitor with DP audio support.
2. Connect the ThinOS client to monitor using DP cable.
3. Plug the analog headset into the monitor DP audio interface.
4. On the ThinOS desktop, click System Setup > Peripherals > Audio > Playback devices, and select the Enable DP audio
check box.
5. Start either an RDP, ICA, PCoIP, or Blast session.
6. Play a video, and check the audio output using the analog headset.
NOTE:
● ThinOS supports only the DisplayPort audio playback. Audio recording using DisplayPort is not supported.
● DisplayPort audio is supported only on Wyse 3030 LT thin client and Wyse 5060 thin client.
NOTE: By default, the DP audio is disabled on Wyse 3040 thin client running ThinOS version 8.5_024. If you upgrade
ThinOS on your existing thin client to a newer version, the DP audio is enabled on the thin client. If DP audio is enabled, and
if you reboot the thin client with a display resolution higher than 1920 x 1080, a black screen is displayed for 10 seconds. DP
audio stops responding when the black screen issue is observed. To load the default settings for DP audio, reset the thin
client to factory default settings. However, thin clients that are shipped with the latest version of ThinOS are configured
with the default settings.
Configuring the serial settings
To configure the Serial settings:
1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Peripherals.
The Peripherals dialog box is displayed.
2. Click the Serial tab and do the following:
a. Select Port—Click the button to select the Port. Default is COM 1.
b. Baud Rate—Select the Baud Rate from the drop-down list. Default is 9600.
120
