Thin Client

Overview

A thin client is a remote computing device that connects a user’s monitors, keyboard, mouse,

speakers, and other peripherals to remote computers and to virtual desktops (VMs). As shown

below, computing resources are typically located in remote data centers.

Thin clients use a remote connection protocol to enable users to work on a blade or VM as if

it is a local PC. See the documentation for the remote protocol application that you use for

additional information.

Prepare a network connection in one of the following ways:

If you are using a wired network connection, connect an Ethernet cable to

the Ethernet port on the rear of the thin client and to the Ethernet port on

the remote compute device or network device (such as a network switch).

Step

Action

Connect the included Mini USB power cord and AC adapter, and then plug

the Mini USB cable into the rear of the thin client. Continue by plugging the

power adapter into an AC power outlet.

Power on the thin client by pressing the inline power button on the

power cable.

Next steps: Perform the initial configuration of Cloud Desktop OS (First-Time Wizard)

and, optionally, configure Wi-Fi connections.

C3Pi Indicators

and

Power Controls

The picture below shows the indicators on the side of the C3PI.

Figure 3. Indicators on the side of the C3Pi

The list below describes power functions available from the power cable and operating system.

Power cable with inline switch

The power cable provides 5V power to the C3Pi, and the switch integrated into the cable

turns 5V power on and off.

Cloud Desktop OS:

Shutdown: From Cloud Desktop OS, click Start > Shutdown.

When using Cloud Desktop Shutdown option, the C3Pi enters a low power state—note

that the red, 5V power light remains on after shutting down. While the C3Pi is in a low

power state, 5V power is still present. To turn off 5V power, press the inline power

button on the power cable, and the light will turn off.

NOTE: To apply power to the C3Pi from this state, you might have to press the inline

power button twice.

Reboot: From Cloud Desktop OS, click Start > Reboot to shut down and restart the

operating system.

Cloud Desktop OS Setup (First-Time Wizard)

About

CloudDesktop OS

Cloud Desktop OS is the operating system included with ClearCube C3P1 thin clients. See

the Cloud Desktop Quick Start Guide, included in your shipment, for details about setting up

and configuring Cloud Desktop OS. The quick start guide is also available from the

ClearCube Support site (www.clearcube.com/support/). From the Software drop-down menu,

click Cloud Desktop OS.

Cloud Desktop

OS Accounts

The C3Pi Thin Client boots to the user account and displays the configuration wizard the first

time you power on the thin client. The default password is admin (case-sensitive).

NOTE: Change administrator password immediately after logging in. You can specify a

new password using the configuration wizard (First-Time Wizard).

The First-Time

Wizard

Cloud Desktop OS displays the First-Time Wizard the first time you power on a client or

after a factory reset. This wizard lets administrators create connections quickly by specifying

a minimum number of Connection attributes. After creating a Connection, administrators can

edit and create additional Connections using the OS’s Configuration application.

The section below shows each step in the First-Time Wizard.

First

Connection

This section assumes you are powering on a client for the first time. The table below shows

how to create a simple Connection and specify the administrator password.

Step

Action

Power on the thin client.

Result: The thin client displays the BIOS splash screen then boots to the

desktop. The First-Time Wizard starts and displays the Step 1 - Location and

keyboard screen.

From the drop-down menus, select values for the Time zone, Country, System

locale, and Keyboard layout fields.

Click Next.

Result: The First-Time Wizard displays the Step 2 - Create a

connection screen.

Click Mode to display a list of connection modes. Select the mode or

protocol for the connection you are creating.

In the Target field, type the host name, URL, or IP address of the connection

host or connection broker for the thin client. For example, if you are using

VMware Horizon View, specify the connection server or security server.

Optionally, specify a group name in the Resource field if the host target is

part of a resource group.

Result: The First-Time Wizard displays the Step 3 - Set administrator

password screen.

Specify an administrator password. This is the password that administrators

use to access the OS’s Configuration application.

Click Finish.

Result: The First-Time Wizard displays a success message and places a

connection shortcut on the desktop. Click the Close button in the upper-right

portion of the screen to close the First-Time Wizard. (Desktop Connection

icons are enabled by default. You can change this setting from the

Configuration application.)

Next step: The Connection is placed on the desktop and is available from the Start menu (see

Figure 5). See the section below for information about starting a Connection. For more

information about configuration options, see Cloud Desktop OS Quick Start Guide.
