● Wyse 5070 Thin Client with Celeron processor
● Wyse 5070 Thin Client with Pentium processor
● Wyse 5070 Extended Thin Client with Pentium processor
To disable or enable the onboard serial port, use the INI parameter Device=SerialDisable={yes, no}. The default value is no. This
option does not affect the USB serial devices. The value that you specify is saved into NVRAM and a system reboot is required
for changes to take effect.
After the onboard port is disabled, all the port values—COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4—are available for USB serial device
mapping. You can view the ThinOS event log to know the local serial port name that is used when a USB serial device is
attached to the thin client.
Configuring the camera settings
Use the Camera tab to interface with cameras that are locally connected to the thin client (USB) and supported by a UVC
driver. When using the HDX RealTime webcam feature of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, you can control options such as
maximum resolution and frames per second (10 FPS is recommended).
By default, the format of USB camera is set to RAW.
NOTE:
You can optimize performance and modify the frame rate per second, if the Optimize for CPU check box is not selected—
supported values include 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, and 1/6– directly from the thin client (if the webcam supports Universal
Video Driver).
Also, this feature is CPU intensive and is recommended for high performance products.
For Wyse 5470 and Wyse 5470 All-in-One thin clients, it is recommended to use a camera such as Logitech C930e that supports
hardware encoding. The integrated camera on the thin clients does not support hardware encoding, so the performance is
limited as follows:
● On the Wyse 5470 Thin Client with RTME-enabled, the camera performance on Skype for Business is limited to a maximum
resolution of 640 x 360 using HD configuration, 960 x 540 using Full HD configuration, and 1280 x 720 if Logitech C930e
camera is used.
● On the Wyse 5470 All-in-One Thin Client with RTME-enabled, the camera performance on Skype for Business is limited to a
maximum resolution of 960 x 540, and 1280 x 720 if Logitech C930e camera is used.
