Resetting to Factory Defaults Using G-Key Reset
High-privileged or Stand-alone users can reset the thin client to factory default settings using the G-key reset feature.
To reset the thin client to factory default settings, restart the thin client and continuously tap the G key during the restart process. G-key
reset impacts all conguration items, including, but not limited to, both network conguration and connections dened in local NV-RAM.
NOTE: G-key reset is disabled for Low-privileged and Non-privileged users in Lockdown mode.
Resetting to Factory Defaults Using Shutdown Reset
A High-privileged or Stand-alone user can reset the thin client to factory default settings from the Shutdown dialog box.
To reset the thin client to factory defaults:
1 From the desktop menu, click Shutdown.
The Shutdown dialog box is displayed.
2 After starting your thin client you will see a Dell logo for a short period of time.
3 Click Restart the system to restart your thin client.
4 Select the Reset the system setting to factory default check box to restore your system settings to default factory settings.
5 Click OK to save the settings.
Shutdown reset impacts all conguration items, including, but not limited to network conguration and connections dened in local
NV-RAM. However, the terminal name will not be changed.
NOTE
:
Shutdown reset is disabled for Low-privileged and Non-privileged users, regardless of lock down state.
Resetting Display Settings Using V-Key Reset
If the display settings are inappropriate for the particular monitor that is connected, it is possible that the display will not function properly
when the thin client restarts. To correct this, power-on the thin client while continuously tapping the V key. This will restart the thin client
with a default/automatic display resolution.
Accessing Thin Client BIOS Settings
After starting your thin client you will see a Dell logo for a short period of time. During this period you can press and hold the Delete key to
enter the BIOS with Fireport as the password to make necessary modications. For example, you can use the F7 key to use Optimized
Defaults (load optimal default values for all the items in the BIOS setup utility).
NOTE
: This does not apply to the Wyse 3020 thin client with ThinOS (T10D) no BIOS on ARM platform — to access the
WLOADER on an ARM platform, press the power button for about four seconds until the power light turns green, and then press
the Delete key.
