Compaq Evo T20TM and Compaq T1010 Terminals Quick Reference Guide Introducing the Evo T20 and T1010 Terminals Compaq Evo T20 and Compaq T1010 terminals use the Windows NT® Embedded operating system to display windows rather than the classic text-based display. These computers are designed to connect to Windows Terminal Server (WTS) and Windows 2000 servers via Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and Independent Computing Architecture (ICA).
2 The Evo T20 supports only USB serial communications. Keyboard and mouse connections are accomplished using the USB ports on the back of the terminal. Figure 1 Evo T20 Thin Client Evo T20 Features The following list outlines the key features of the Evo T20 terminal. • Windows 3.
3 Use Figure 2 to connect power supply/power cord, monitor, keyboard, mouse, ethernet, and other external devices such as headphones to your terminal.
4 T1010 Terminal The T1010 terminal is a modular-type NT Embedded-based terminal. The connections for its peripherals such as the monitor, keyboard, and mouse are on the back panel of the thin client. Figure 3 shows the T1010 terminal. Figure 3 T1010 Terminal T1010 Terminal Features The following list outlines the key features of the T1010 terminal. • Windows 3.
5 • Support for monochrome or color monitor • Desktop housing Note USB and Option card slot will be supported in future releases. The following items are provided with T1010 thin clients. • Power cord and power supply • Keyboard and mouse • Installation and user information Use Figure 4 to connect power supply/power cord, monitor, keyboard, mouse, network (ethernet), and other external devices such as headphones to your terminal.
6 Figure 4 T1010 Back Panel Network Power Mouse Keyboard COM 1 Video USB COM 2 Parallel Option Headphone Microphone Extended Windows NT Embedded Features The NT Embedded based terminal’s operating system has extended features not found in standard Windows NT. With the exception of Microsoft Client Connection Manager and Citrix Program Neighborhood, extended NT Embedded features are only available through Administrator logon accounts.
7 Extended Control Panel Features • Ramdisk The Ramdisk is volatile memory space set aside for temporary user data storage. Use the Ramdisk Configuration dialog box to configure the Ramdisk size. See the following figure. Figure 5 Ramdisk Configuration Dialog Box • Time Sync Synchronize the terminal’s time to the server’s time. • Winlog Use the Specify Logon Information dialog box to enter logon information: · Enable Autologon · Default User Name · Default Password · Default Domain.
8 Figure 6 Specify Logon Information Dialog Box Extended Program Features • Terminal Services Client Client Connection Manager Use this feature to create shortcuts to terminal servers. See Microsoft Windows/Windows NT documentation for a detailed explanation and instructions on how to use the Client Connection Manager. It is available on the web at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/embedded/nt/. Terminal Services Client Use this feature to connect to available servers.
9 Using Your Sysytem Logging On The Auto Logon feature is enabled as a factory default. Use the Specify Logon Information dialog box to: • change the Default User Name • change the Default Password • enable or disable Auto Logon The Specify Logon Information dialog may be accessed with the following special key sequence: Tab, Home, End, ←, →. After completing this key sequence, the next dialog box to display will be the Specify Logon Information dialog box.
10 Joining A Domain Note If you are joining a domain you must have a unique system ID (SID). All terminals are shipped from the factory with identical SIDs. Therefore, before joining a domain with your unit, change the SID. Contact your System Administrator to have this done. Note System Administrators: If you do not already have the appropriate utility to change the SID, contact your software supplier.

12 The Windows NT Embedded Desktop When you log on as an administrator, a dialog box displays over the desktop for a short period of time. This dialog box shows the current time as its title. When this occurs, the terminal is synchronizing its local time with the server’s local time. You can invoke and use this dialog box again using Start | Settings | Control Panel | Time Sync. Users Desktop When you first turn on your terminal and log on as a user, the desktop in Figure 8 will display.

16 About Dialog Box Click About in the Start menu to display the About dialog box for general information about the Compaq terminal. Application Notes Drive Z: Drive Z: is onboard volatile memory (Ms-ramdrive) on the logic board of the terminal. Because drive Z: is volatile memory, we recommend that you do not save data that you want to keep on this drive. Drive C: and Flash Drive C: is onboard non-volatile Flash (memory) on the logic board of the terminal.

Click on Start | Settings | Control Panel. 2. Double-click on the Regional Settings icon. 3. Click on the Regional Settings tab. 4. Select the region appropriate to the keyboard language. 5.
20 Remote Administrator Support Microsoft Windows NT Embedded on windows-based terminals now supports Remote Administrator software functions. Remote Administrator software allows a system administrator to observe terminal use (shadowing), accomplish software updates remotely, and perform other administrative and maintenance activities without physically touching the client terminal. Shadowing Shadowing must be enabled from the client terminal.
