4 Parameters for wnos INI, {username} INI, and $MAC INI files This chapter provides the supported parameters that you can use in a wnos.ini file, a {username}.ini file, and in a $MAC.ini file. For information to help you construct and use the supported INI files, see Getting Started: Learning INI File Basics To increase usability such as relation to thin client dialog box equivalents, the supported parameters are separated into the following categories: • General Settings for wnos.ini Files, {username} INI, and $MAC INI Files • Peripheral Settings for wnos.ini Files, {username} INI, and $MAC INI Files • Connection Settings for wnos.ini Files username INI and MAC INI Files IMPORTANT: The underlined value for a parameter is the default value. Some parameters also have options shown within brackets [ ]. If an option has an underlined value (default), that option and default value will automatically be used with the parameter. The options without underlined values can also be used if you want to, but are not automatically used with the parameter. In addition, when using parameters and options, you can leave the default value or change it to another value shown. For example, in the following case where: ParameterX={yes, no} [Option1={0, 1}] [Option2={1, 2, 3, 4}] If you use ParameterX, then Option1 and its default value 0 will automatically be used as Option1 has an underlined value (default of 0). You can still use Option2 if you want to, however, Option2 is not automatically used with the parameter as Option2 does not have a default (underlined) value. NOTE: User profile parameters found in the {username}.ini file generally override the identically named global parameters found in the wnos.ini file, however, some global parameters in this section noted with * do not allow this. Thus, if the parameters in this section noted with * are used in both a {username}.ini file and in a wnos.ini file, the noted parameters in the wnos.ini file will override the same noted parameters in the {username}.ini file. For example, if the parameter Resolution=1024x768 is used in the {username}.ini file and the same parameter Resolution=1280x1024 is used in the wnos.ini file, the Resolution=1280x1024 in the wnos.ini file will override the Resolution parameter in the {username}.ini file. Therefore, if you want the parameter Resolution=1024x768 in the {username}.ini file to be used, you must not use the Resolution parameter in the wnos.ini file. NOTE: Parameters in this section noted with ** that are used in a {username}.ini file or $MAC.ini file will return to the values set for those parameters in the wnos.ini file after a user sign-off. For example, if your {username}.ini file contains the parameter MouseSwap=1-so that the mouse buttons are swapped for your lefthand use and you log off the thin client, then the MouseSwap value will return to the original default value of 0 (MouseSwap=0) contained in the wnos.ini file-so that others who log in can use their own user profile; assuming the administrator has not changed the default values in the wnos.ini file. 44 Parameters for wnos INI, {username} INI, and $MAC INI files

Parameters for wnos INI, {username} INI, and
$MAC INI
files
This chapter provides the supported parameters that you can use in a wnos.ini
file,
a {username}.ini
file,
and in a $MAC.ini
file.
For
information to help you construct and use the supported INI
files,
see
Getting Started: Learning INI File Basics
To increase usability such as relation to thin client dialog box equivalents, the supported parameters are separated into the following
categories:
•
General Settings for wnos.ini Files, {username} INI, and $MAC INI Files
•
Peripheral Settings for wnos.ini Files, {username} INI, and $MAC INI Files
•
Connection Settings for wnos.ini Files username INI and MAC INI Files
IMPORTANT:
The underlined value for a parameter is the default value. Some parameters also have options shown within brackets [ ]. If an option
has an underlined value (default), that option and default value will automatically be used with the parameter. The options without
underlined values can also be used if you want to, but are not automatically used with the parameter. In addition, when using
parameters and options, you can leave the default value or change it to another value shown.
For example, in the following case where:
ParameterX={yes, no}
[Option1={0, 1}]
[Option2={1, 2, 3, 4}]
If you use ParameterX, then Option1 and its default value 0 will automatically be used as Option1 has an underlined value (default of 0).
You can still use Option2 if you want to, however, Option2 is not automatically used with the parameter as Option2 does not have a
default (underlined) value.
NOTE:
User
profile
parameters found in the {username}.ini
file
generally override the identically named
global
parameters found in the
wnos.ini
file,
however, some global parameters in this section noted with
*
do not allow this. Thus, if the parameters in this section
noted with
*
are used in both a {username}.ini
file
and in a wnos.ini
file,
the noted parameters in the wnos.ini
file
will override the same
noted parameters in the {username}.ini
file.
For example, if the parameter Resolution=1024x768 is used in the {username}.ini
file
and the same parameter Resolution=1280x1024 is
used in the wnos.ini
file,
the Resolution=1280x1024 in the wnos.ini
file
will override the Resolution parameter in the {username}.ini
file.
Therefore, if you want the parameter Resolution=1024x768 in the {username}.ini
file
to be used, you must not use the Resolution
parameter in the wnos.ini
file.
NOTE:
Parameters in this section noted with
**
that are used in a {username}.ini
file
or $MAC.ini
file
will return to the values set for those
parameters in the wnos.ini
file
after a user
sign-off.
For example, if your {username}.ini
file
contains the parameter MouseSwap=1—so that the mouse buttons are swapped for your left-
hand use and you log
off
the thin client, then the MouseSwap value will return to the original default value of 0 (MouseSwap=0)
contained in the wnos.ini
file—so
that others who log in can use their own user
profile;
assuming the administrator has not changed
the default values in the wnos.ini
file.
