TIP: The remote host can be configured to start resources automatically upon login, making the kiosk mode experience seamless. The easiest way to configure a thin client for kiosk mode is to switch it to Smart Zero (see Customization Center on page 61) and configure a connection. When this is done, the following settings are set automatically: ● The taskbar auto-hides. ● The connection auto-starts. ● The connection auto-reconnects. ● The connection shares the user credentials with the local screen saver. ● The desktop theme is set to that connection type's default theme. ● The USB redirection protocol in USB Manager is set to that connection type's protocol. If you want to configure a thin client for kiosk mode in ThinPro (for example, if you want to use a connection type available only with ThinPro), manually configure the following settings for the desired connection: ● In Customization Center, set the taskbar to Auto hide. ● In connection's settings, do the following: - Set Auto start priority to 1. - Enable Auto reconnect. - Enable Share credentials with screensaver, if available. - For a Web Browser connection only, select the Enable kiosk mode option. ● In USB Manager, set the proper USB redirection protocol, if necessary.
