Logging Off, Restarting, and Shutting Down the Thin Client

To log off, restart, or shut down the Thin Client, click the taskbar’s Start to open the Start menu and select your option. On Models 9440XL, 9450XE, 9455XL, 9650XE, Model J400, Product 941GXL, and Model x150, Product 9150SE click Shut Down from the Start menu to open a sub-menu; on the Model 9235LE, select the desired action from the Start menu.

Note

You can also log off or shut down using the Windows Security dialog box, which can be opened by using the Ctrl+Alt+Del key combination. The shut down option from the Windows Security dialog box is not available on the Model 9235LE.

Note

If automatic log-on is enabled, when you log off (without shutting down) the Thin Client immediately logs on the default user. For instructions on logging on as a different user, refer to “Logging On” on page 15.

The following utilities are affected by logging off, restarting, and shutting down the Thin Client:

Write Filter cache - If you make changes to system configuration settings and want them to persist, you must flush the 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 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 Write Filter cache after the new log-on and still retain the changes. For instructions on flushing the Write Filter cache, refer to “Write Filter Control Dialog Box” on page 46. For general information about the Write Filter, refer to “Utilities and Settings” on page 41.

Note

A User log-on account does not have cache flush privileges; 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. For details about NetXClean, refer to “NetXClean Utility” on page 48.

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. Parameters for this mode are available by clicking Start Settings Control Panel Screen Saver Power.

Wake-on-LAN- This standard XP feature allows the Rapport Administrative Software to perform image updates and remote administration functions at any time. To use this feature, the Thin Client power must remain on.

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 the battery option 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.
