- You cannot boot into ThinOS 9.1.6108 or later versions when you perform the following operations:
Disable the onboard Network Interface Card (NIC), Trusted Platform Module (TPM), or Platform Trust Technology (PTT).
Clear TPM or PTT.
Reset BIOS to factory default settings.
- If you are downgrading to ThinOS 8.6, ThinOS 9.0, or ThinOS 9.1 versions that are older than 9.1.3129, you must use the Dell Wyse USB Imaging Tool to install the ThinOS 8.x or 9.x Merlin image that is posted to www.dell.com/support.

Installation instructions
Installing the ThinOS firmware using Wyse Management Suite:
Prerequisites
- If you are using ThinOS 8.6, you must upgrade to ThinOS 8.6_807 and apply the latest BIOS updates before upgrading to ThinOS 9.1.6108 or later versions.
- Before migrating from ThinOS 8.x to ThinOS 9.x or upgrading from ThinOS 9.x to later versions, ensure that your system is powered on and the sleep mode is disabled on the system. If the system has entered the sleep mode, you must send the Wake-On-LAN command through Wyse Management Suite before using any real-time commands. To use the Wake-On-LAN command, ensure that the Wake-On-LAN option is enabled in BIOS.
- Ensure that you upgrade the BIOS version on Wyse 5070 Thin Clients to 1.3.1 or later, before upgrading to ThinOS 9.1.6108 or later versions. If you upgrade to ThinOS 9.1.6108 or later versions with an earlier BIOS version and then upgrade the BIOS version to 1.3.1 or later, the thin client may fail to boot.
- The ThinOS conversion image must be added to the ThinOS firmware repository.
- Create a group in Wyse Management Suite with a group token.
- The thin client must be registered to Wyse Management Suite.
Steps
1. Go to the Groups & Configs page, and select a group.
2. From the Edit Policies drop-down menu, click ThinOS.
The Select ThinOS Configuration Mode window is displayed.
3. Select Advanced Configuration Mode.
4. Go to Firmware Upgrade, and click Configure this item.
5. Clear the Disable Live Upgrade if you want to upgrade immediately and clear the Verify Signature check box as well.
6. From the Platform Type drop-down list, select the platform.
7. From the Firmware to auto-deploy drop-down list, select the firmware added to the repository.
8. Click Save & Publish.
The firmware is deployed to the thin client. The conversion process takes around 10 minutes, and the thin client restarts automatically. After the upgrade is complete, the device is automatically registered to Wyse Management Suite.
NOTE: The download of the ThinOS 9.1.6108 image from Wyse Management Suite (both private and public cloud) to the thin client takes around nine minutes depending on the network bandwidth or cloud server performance. The device
reboots after the ThinOS image has been downloaded. After the upgrade is complete, the device is automatically registered to Wyse Management Suite.
NOTE: If a black screen is displayed after the upgrade, you must perform a hard reboot.
Note:
The device reboots after the ThinOS image is downloaded. Once the upgrade completes, the device is automatically registered to Wyse Management Suite. Dell Technologies recommends you to back up your device settings before you initiate the upgrade process. All device settings are erased after you upgrade from ThinOS 8.6 except the following settings:
- Wyse Management Suite group token and server settings
- Static DNS
- Certificates
- IEEE802.1x wired authentication settings
- Wireless connections-The WEP/Sharekey security type is changed to Open as they are not supported in ThinOS 9.1
- Proxy settings
