● Ethernet port on the docking station + Wireless
NOTE: You do not need to reboot the system when you connect or disconnect the Dell Docking Station WD19 for the
network to work.
Onboard Ethernet port + Ethernet port on the docking station + Wireless—You can use the combination of these three
network interfaces together. However, the following known issues are observed while using this combination:
● You can connect to the network using any two network interfaces and select the network interface that is not connected as
the default option. The network can be used in this scenario, but the preferred network type cannot be determined.
For example, two ethernet ports are connected and you select the wireless option as default without connecting the device
to wireless. The network can be used in this scenario, but the preferred network type cannot be determined.
●
You can connect to the network using all three available network interfaces together. The preferred network type cannot be
determined in this scenario.
Korean language support
The Korean language option is added in the Locale drop-down list on the General tab in the System Preferences window.
You can select this option to change the language to Korean for the user login-experience.
Word wrap feature
The word wrap feature enables you to fit large text inside the available display area of the active window. To enable the word
wrap feature, use the INI parameter wordwrap.
For example, noticefile=dell_notice resizable=no wordwrap=yes.
The default value is no. When you change the value to yes, the text is confined to the display area and the horizontal scroll bar
is disabled.
Customize connection broker agent window and icons
You can create customized PCoIP icons for the ThinOS user interface using .png, .jpg, or .bmp files. This feature is available for
the following platforms:
● Wyse 3030 LT Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 3040 Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 5010 Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 5040 AIO Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 5060 Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 5070 Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 5470 Thin Client with PCoIP
● Wyse 5470 AIO Thin Client with PCoIP
To customize the broker agent window and icons, do the following:
1. To enable this feature, use the INI parameter SignOn=yes BitmapsMap={yes,no}
You must set BitmapsMap as yes for changing integrated bitmap images in to customized bitmap images.
2. Place the text file bitmaps.map in the same folder as ThinOS builds.
Similar to the PrinterMap file, each line in the file is of the format integrated bitmap file name=customized
bitmap file.
3. Place the image files in the bitmap folder that is located inside the folder that contains ThinOS builds.
The following are some examples:
● m_pcoip.ico=1-1_16.png
● pcoip.ico=1-1_32.png
● vdm.png=3_355x85.png
● horizon_wallpaper.jpg=Bugatti-Veyron-Wallpaper-Hd-1080p-uSa4W-1366x768.jpg
