Private NTP servers or large virtual NTP clusters such as pool.ntp.org are the best choices to minimize server load. Clear this value to return to using DHCP servers (tag 42) instead of a fixed list. Sets the time server used by the Linux net command. These servers are typically the domain controller servers on the corporate network. This should be used when NTP servers are not configured or they are not responding. The Linux net command identifies this server on its own. However, specific server IP addresses can be provided here if desired. Sets the web server URL (such as hp.com) to use when fetching the time using the http protocol. This URL can be within an intranet or over the Internet. Defines countries to be hidden in the time-zone selection GUI using a semicolon-separated list. Defines Windows-format time zones (such as, (UTC+02:00) Tipoli) to be hidden in the time-zone selection GUI using a semicolonseparated list. Defines Linux-format time zones (such as, America/Denver) to be hidden in the time-zone selection GUI using a semicolonseparated list. Sets the time zone. Time zones should be specified as defined by Linux Timezone in the Date and Time tool in Control Panel, and they should be in the following format: / If set to -1, the system chooses the format automatically according to the locale. If set to 0, the a.m./p.m. format is used. If set to 1, the 24-hour format is used. If set to 1, the thin client will attempt to set the time zone via DHCP. To properly set the time zone via this registry key, ensure that the DHCP server for the thin client forwards the tcode DHCP tag (which is usually tag 101, although 100 and 2 can work also). If set to 1, the use of NTP time servers to synchronize the thin client clock is enabled. If this is enabled, ensure that an NTP server is specified via DHCP or via NTPServers. Description Defines whether the thin client beeps when the touch screen is used. This registry key is either used internally or reserved for future use. The value should not be changed. If set to 1, the touch screen input is enabled.

Registry key

Description

root/time/NTPServers

Speciﬁes

NTP servers to use via a comma-separated list. Private

NTP servers or large virtual NTP clusters such as

pool.ntp.org

are the best choices to minimize server load.

Clear this value to return to using DHCP servers (tag 42) instead of

ﬁxed

list.

root/time/TimeServerIPAddress

Sets the time server used by the Linux

net

command. These

servers are typically the domain controller servers on the

corporate network. This should be used when NTP servers are not

conﬁgured

or they are not responding. The Linux

net

command

identiﬁes

this server on its own. However,

speciﬁc

server IP

addresses can be provided here if desired.

root/time/WebServerURL

Sets the web server URL (such as

hp.com

) to use when fetching

the time using the http protocol. This URL can be within an

intranet or over the Internet.

root/time/hideCountries

Deﬁnes

countries to be hidden in the time-zone selection GUI

using a semicolon-separated list.

root/time/hideWinZones

Deﬁnes

Windows-format time zones (such as, (UTC+02:00) Tipoli)

to be hidden in the time-zone selection GUI using a semicolon-

separated list.

root/time/hideZones

Deﬁnes

Linux-format time zones (such as, America/Denver) to be

hidden in the time-zone selection GUI using a semicolon-

separated list.

root/time/timezone

Sets the time zone. Time zones should be

speciﬁed

deﬁned

Linux Timezone

in the

Date and Time

tool in Control Panel, and

they should be in the following format:

root/time/use24HourFormat

If set to -1, the system chooses the format automatically

according to the locale. If set to 0, the a.m./p.m. format is used. If

set to 1, the 24-hour format is used.

root/time/useDHCPTimezone

If set to 1, the thin client will attempt to set the time zone via

DHCP. To properly set the time zone via this registry key, ensure

that the DHCP server for the thin client forwards the

tcode

DHCP

tag (which is usually tag 101, although 100 and 2 can work also).

root/time/useNTPServers

If set to 1, the use of NTP time servers to synchronize the thin

client clock is enabled. If this is enabled, ensure that an NTP

server is

speciﬁed

via DHCP or via

NTPServers

touchscreen

Registry key

Description

root/touchscreen/beep

Deﬁnes

whether the thin client beeps when the touch screen is

used.

root/touchscreen/calibrated

This registry key is either used internally or reserved for future

use. The value should not be changed.

root/touchscreen/enabled

If set to 1, the touch screen input is enabled.
