IBM N2800e Personal Computer User Manual


 
The Configuration Tool provides three Workstation Mode user interfaces:
1. A single application that starts automatically when you power on the
workstation. This application fills the entire display screen.
2. One or more applications that start automatically when you power on the
workstation.
Note: The N2800es free memory determines how many applications you can
run at one time. With 32 MB of RAM, you can specify up to either of the
following applications:
v Four simultaneous 5250 or 3270 emulators
v An ICA client and two simultaneous 5250 or 3270 emulators
3. A launch bar with one or more applications. The Configuration Tool can start
these applications automatically, if desired.
Network administrators can use one of two possible methods to restrict access to
the Configuration Tool:
1. Use the Configuration Tool itself to create an administrator password.
2. Use the Thin Client Manager Operations Utility. For more information on using
the Thin Client Manager Operations Utility, see Managing your Thin Client
Express remotelyon page 19.
You can access additional, customized help at any time by clicking Help in the
lower, right-hand corner of the display. The help viewer also has search capability.
To access the Configuration Tool anytime after the initial configuration, press and
hold the following keys on the left side of the keyboard: Shift + Ctrl + Alt. Hold
the keys down for several seconds until the Configuration Tool starts.
You can also place the Configuration Tool on the launch bar for simple, future
access.
