Desktop scaling factor for RDP connection
The Desktop Scale Factor option enables you to define the desktop scale in the client locally. This option is supported in RDP
version 8/RDP version 10 or later on the Dell Wyse 3010, 3020, 3030 LT, 3040, 5010, 5040, 5060, 5070, and 7010 thin clients.
This feature is not supported in RDP 7.
NOTE:
The Desktop Scale Factor is only applicable for RDP connection. Setting this option does not impact the local
display scale on the thin client.
You can configure the desktop scaling factor by using SessionConfig=RDP DesktopScaleFactor=xx parameters. The
value for DesktopScaleFactor is 100~500.
For more information about setting the desktop scaling factor, see the Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.6 Administrator's Guide at
www.dell.com/support.
Icon folders for StoreFront interface

manage the folders. For example, you can add applications into the folder and delete folders including internal applications.
You can configure this option using the INI parameter SignOn=yes IconGroupStyle=Folder. For more information, see the Dell
Wyse ThinOS Version 8.6 INI Reference Guide at Dell.com/support.

information from multiple clinical applications.
A new INI parameter CaradigmServer=xxx UseWay2Care=yes is added in this release. you can also set DisableManualLogon=yes
EGPGroup=xxx along with the CaradigmServer parameter.
This feature uses Way2Care API that is different from the TapServer API. Way2Care uses decimal UID format.
For more information about the CaradigmServer parameter, see Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.6 INI Reference Guide at Dell.com/
support.
