Parameters for this mode are available by right-clicking on the desktop background and selecting Properties > Screen Saver > Power. System time After power off, clock time is not lost as long as the power source remains plugged in. You can manually set the local time, or you can automatically set the local time utility to synchronize the thin client clock to a time server at a designated time. NOTE: The Windows Time service is Stopped by default. You can Start the service via the administrative tools control panel applet. You may want to Start the service and maintain correct time because some applications may require access to the local thin client time. To open the Date and Time Properties dialog, click on the time area in the task bar or double-click the Date and Time icon in the Control Panel. 8 Chapter 2 Configuration ENWW
