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 integrated 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. In the Audio tab, select either Port 1 or Port 2.
6. Start either an RDP, ICA, PCoIP, or Blast session.
7. Play a video, and check the audio output using the analog headset.
Limitations
● ThinOS supports only the DisplayPort audio playback. Audio recording using DisplayPort is not supported.
● DisplayPort audio is supported only on Wyse 5060 Thin Client and Wyse 5070 Thin Client.
● By default, the DP audio is disabled on Wyse 3040 Thin Client. If you update ThinOS to a newer version, the default setting
for DP audio is not set automatically. You must reset the thin client to factory default settings to load the default settings
for DP audio. However, thin clients shipped with the latest version of ThinOS are already configured with default settings.
