Introduction
What is DeTOS?
Acer Terminal Operating System (DeTOS) is an embedded Thin Client
Operating System designed to be simple, secure, and centrally
manageable. DeTOS can be used to access hosted desktops using
Microsoft Remote Desktop Services, VMware View, Citrix XenApp or
XenDesktop, web-based applications, and more.
DeTOS Features

Simple-Configuring a session out of the box is quick and painless
using the DeTOS intuitive web based control panel. The same
control panel can be used either locally from the thin client or
remotely from the management software.

Modern-DeTOS can connect to hosted desktops using the
industry’s best protocols including PCoIP, Citric ICA Client, Citrix
XenDesktop, rDesktop (RDP) or Windows Terminal Services, and
VMware View Client. DeTOS also includes a built-in browser that
allows accessing web-based applications or kiosk usage.

Centrally Managed-DeTOS-based terminals can be centrally
managed using Acer Echo Management Console.

Echo is shipped as a virtual appliance, so it is easy to set up.

Echo can automatically discover and inventory the thin clients on
your network.

Echo has the concept of a default profile. Using a default profile,
additional thin clients are automatically configured when you plug
them into your network.
