Figure 4-27: Send Device State Change Command Webpage
In the Set Device State webpage, reset commands can be sent to both host and zero client
devices, while power off commands can only be sent to host devices. To power off zero client
devices, see the Set Remote Power Down webpage (section 4.5.3).
Reset Commands
 A PCoIP zero client resets immediately when it receives a reset command.
 A PCoIP host device schedules a deferred reset when it receives a reset command. A
deferred reset is a reset that occurs the next time the host PC/workstation is powered
off or restarted.
Power Off Commands
 Soft power off commands sent to host PCoIP devices trigger the same action that
occurs when you click the host PC/workstation Power button for less than four
seconds. The action taken by the host depends on how the operating system is
configured. It may initiate a software controlled shutdown or cause the host to enter
the Standby state.
 Hard power off commands sent to host PCoIP devices trigger the same action that
occurs when you press the host PC/workstation Power button for more than four
seconds. This immediately shuts down the PC/workstation by turning off its power.
Note: You must configure the host workstation to support power-state transitions initiated by
the PCoIP host card. Some systems do not support this feature or it may be optional. See your
PCoIP system supplier documentation to determine if this feature is supported.
