Utilities Affected by Log Off, Restart, and Shut Down

The following utilities are affected by logging off, restarting, and shutting down the thin client :
  • File Based Write Filter cache — If you make changes to system configuration settings and want them to persist after a reboot, you must flush the files of the File Based Write Filter cache during the current system session. Otherwise, the new settings will be lost when the thin client is shut down or restarted. The File Based Write Filter cache contents are not lost when you simply log off and on again as the same or different user; that is, you can flush the files of the File Based Write Filter cache after the new logon and still retain the changes. For instructions on flushing, see Before Configuring Your Thin Clients. For detailed information about the File Based Write Filter, see Using the File Based Write Filter (FBWF)

    • NOTE: A user cannot flush the files of the File Based Write Filter cache; this is a local or remote administrator function.
  • NetXClean Utility — NetXClean is a clean-up utility that keeps extraneous information from being stored on the flash memory. Clean-up is triggered automatically on restart, shut-down, or user log-off. If you want to keep certain profile configurations for example, printers, be sure to configure NetXClean to refrain from cleaning up any number of explicitly declared profiles. For details about NetXClean, see Before Configuring Your Thin Clients and Understanding the NetXClean Utility .

  • Power Management — A Monitor Saver turns off the video signal to the monitor, allowing the monitor to enter a power-saving mode after a designated idle time. Power settings are available in Start > Control Panel > Power Options .

  • Wake-on-LAN — This standard Windows Embedded Standard feature discovers all thin clients in your LAN, and enables you to wake them up by clicking a button. This feature allows WDM software, for example, to perform image updates and remote administration functions on devices that have been shut down or are on standby. To use this feature, the thin client power must remain on.

    • NOTE: Wake on LAN feature will not work by default for laptop clients; you must enable the feature in the bios. In addition, for a laptop client, only S3 mode is supported the S5 mode is not supported.
  • Thin Client Time —After power off, clock time will not be lost as long as the power source remains on. Clock time will be lost if the power source is off and a battery is not installed. The local time utility can be set to synchronize the thin client clock to a time server automatically at a designated time, or manually.

    • NOTE:

      Correct time should be maintained as some applications require access to local thin client time. Use the Date and Time dialog box Start > Control Panel > Date and Time or by clicking the time area in the taskbar and then clicking the Change date and time settings link to edit the time and date as needed.
