Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.6.1 Administrator's Guide

Configuring the display setup

1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Display.
   The Display Setup dialog box is displayed.
2. In the Display Setup dialog box, configure the following options:
   • Mirror mode—Select the Mirror mode check box to enable all connected displays to use the same display settings configured on the primary display.

     If you clear the Mirror mode check box, the Span Mode is enabled. The following screen represents the span mode configuration.

     

     

     Blocks displayed on the screen represent the number of display screens connected to the thin client. Each block represents a single display screen.

     

     Every display contains a unique display order number and display configuration. You can move the blocks horizontally or vertically and construct the multi-display layout in mixed directions. To construct a new display layout, move the blocks to your preferred position, and click Apply. A new display layout is created. However, the system sets the block to its default position if the block is moved to an incorrect position.

     NOTE: : The Wyse 5470 Thin Client supports up to three simultaneous displays.

   • Main screen—Select the Main screen check box to set the display as primary display or main screen. To set a display as main screen, click the display block, and select the Main screen check box. After you set the display as main screen, the display block is highlighted with an underline, and the Main screen option is disabled for that display block. The Main screen option is available for other display blocks.

     NOTE: : The main screen option is effective only in Span Mode and always disabled in Mirror Mode.

   • Resolution—From the Resolution drop-down list, select a display resolution supported by your display.

     NOTE: : The default screen resolution on the Wyse 5470 Thin Client is 1366 x 768 or 1920 x 1080 depending on the configuration.

     NOTE: : The default screen resolution on the Wyse 5470 All-in-One Thin Client is 1920 x 1080.

     In Mirror Mode, the resolution list is derived from the intersection of resolutions in all connected displays.

     In Span Mode, select a display block and change its resolution from the Resolution drop-down list.

   • Rotation—From the Rotation drop-down list, select an option to rotate the display screen in different directions—Left turn 90 degrees or Right turn 90 degrees. By default, the option is set to None.
3. Click Apply.
   The new display settings are applied, and you can view the modified display.
4. Click OK to confirm the new settings.
