Introducing the 3000 Series
Windows-based Terminals
Winterm 3000 Series WBTs (Windows-based Terminals) are graphical display terminals
that are designed to connect to Windows 2000 or Windows NT TSE (Terminal Server
Edition) servers via either the Microsoft RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) or the Citrix ICA
(Independent Computing Architecture) protocol. Winterm 3000 Series WBTs are also
capable of connecting to legacy servers using "text-based terminal" emulation software
that resides on the WBT. Please consult the Terminal Emulation User's Guide, provided
with your terminal for information on configuring emulations, and "Managing Connections"
for information on managing the sessions.
RDP is a Microsoft-developed protocol based on, and is an extension of, the ITU
(International Telecommunications Union) T.120 protocol standards and is provided with
the Windows 2000 and Windows NT TSE operating systems. ICA is a protocol developed
by Citrix Systems and is part of the MetaFrame software package, which is available in
versions for either Windows 2000 or Windows NT TSE. Both protocols are multi-channel
capable and allow for separate virtual channels that carry highly encrypted presentation
data, serial device communications, licensing information, and other data (including
keyboard and mouse activity, etc.). In addition, ICA has other extended capabilities such
as sound and printer support.
Both protocols allow an application's user interface to execute on a Windows-based
terminal while the application's logic executes on the server.
