System Preferences - Dell Wyse ThinOS C10LE Administrator's Manual

Configuring Thin Client Settings Locally

System Preferences

Use the System Preference dialog box (System Settings icon > System Preferences)
to select personal preferences such as screen saver, time/date, and custom information
settings.
Use the following guidelines for the General tab:
Screen Saver - Allows you to select the type of screen saver you want. The default is
•
to Turn Off Screen. Other selections available include Flying Bubbles and Moving
Image (which are screen savers with the monitor remaining on).
Timer - Select a time after which the screen saver is to be activated (either 1
•
minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or default 20 minutes). When the thin client is left
idle for the specified idle time, the screen saver is initiated.
Locale - Select a language to be activated for the user login-experience (either
•
French, German, or default English). Note that Locale changes the language for the
user login-experience screens only (displayed during boot-up and login) and not
the configuration or administrator screens.
Only the following messages are applicable for French and German locales:
