Display features
The default resolution on the Wyse 5470 thin client is 1366x768 or 1920x1080, depending on the configuration.
The following are the display behaviors:
● Wyse 5470 thin client supports up to three simultaneous displays.
● Built-in display stays on by default.
● The Wyse 5470 thin client supports up to two 4K extra displays.
● HDMI, DisplayPort over USB Type-C, and USB Type-C ports are prioritized over the VGA port.
● When a USB Type-C display is present, there will be no display on the VGA port.
● If a VGA display is present, a third display that is connected is prioritized and the VGA display is turned off.
● If a VGA display is not present, a third display that is connected is ignored.
DP audio port feature
ThinOS supports DP audio only over one port. You must select the relevant port in the Peripherals dialog box.
Troubleshooting features
● New target option IDE can be used to select the destination for importing and exporting files. If IDE is selected, the
destination is redirected to ThinOS C: Disk of IDE.
NOTE: Extract CMOS and Restore CMOS features are supported only in USB and File Server options.
● Click Export IDE trouble_shoot to export the folder C:/wnos/trouble_shoot from IDE C: to USB or file server. This
button is enabled only when the target is USB or file server.
● Click Delete IDE trouble_shoot to delete the folder C:/wnos/trouble_shoot from IDE.
● You can select 1 day to 5 days in Days to keep troubleshooting files in IDE. After you reboot, the files in C:/wnos/
trouble_shoot are checked. If the created date is older than the days that you set, the files are removed.
● Select the Enable Application Console Log check box to save all application console logs in the trouble_shoot folder with
the name TerminalName_proc_name_date_time.log
● Application list is a filter for application console logs. It is empty by default and no filters are applied. When it is empty, the
console logs of all applications are saved to the target folder.
You can filter the applications for logs using Application list. The name in the list can be part of the application name. For
example, PCoIP application name is /pcoip/pcoip and Blast application name is /usr/lib/vmware/view/usb/horizon. If you
want the console log of these two applications, enter pcoip;vmware.
