Extended XPE Features

The Winterm XPE-based terminal’s operating system has extended features not found in standard Windows XP. With the exception of the Citrix Program Neighborhood and the Microsoft Terminal Server Client (Remote Desktop Connection Manager), and possibly a special-order terminal emulation application if installed, controls for extended XPE features are available only through an Administrator logon account.

Logging On

Automatic Log on

The default for the XPE-based terminal is automatic log on. The administrator can use the Winlog applet in the Control Panel to enable/disable auto logon and change the auto logon user name, password, and domain. Only the administrator logon account can change auto logon properties.

Note

To save the changes be sure to flush the write filter cache (at any time during the current boot session). See “Write Filter” in “Utilities and Settings” for information about the write filter and instructions for flushing the cache.

The Log On to Windows dialog box is bypassed if automatic log on is enabled. If you want to log on as a different user while autologon is enabled, log off while holding down the Shift key. This will cause the Log On to Windows dialog box to display and allow you to manually enter the log-on information.

Manual Log on

When automatic log on is not enabled (see above), upon terminal startup the Log On to Windows dialog box displays.

Type the log-on information in the User Name and Password text boxes:

·For a user log-on account, the factory-default user name and password are both User (enter in both text boxes).

·For an administrator log-on account, the factory-default user name and password are both Administrator (enter in both text boxes).

Note

Passwords are case sensitive but user names are not case sensitive.

Caution

For security purposes it is recommended that the passwords be changed from the defaults. An administrator can change passwords by typing Ctrl+Alt+Del to open the Windows Security dialog box and then selecting Change Password. The password can not be changed when logged-on as a user.
