Along the bottom of the Control Panel is a row of status messages.
These messages include the DeTOS build number, the terminal's current
IP address, and a Thin Client Management Connection Indicator.
DeTOS default factory setting is DHCP. If you have a DHCP server on
your network, the status bar should show the leased IP address. If you
want the thin client to use a fixed IP address please refer to this guide's
network section. A message of no ip address will appear if network
connectivity is lost or was never established in the first place. This may
be related to a loose or faulty network cable. It may also be an indication
of DHCP issues. If you need to troubleshoot a network issue, please
refer to the network diagnostic section below.
Along with the IP address, the Control Panel status section also shows
you whether your thin client is in managed or unmanaged (stand alone)
mode. By default, DeTOS based terminals try to locate a management
server. If a management server is found, the terminal switches to
managed mode, where it “pulls” its configuration from the management
server. If not, it will stay in standalone/unmanaged mode and use its
local configuration.
The Control Panel status area also shows the OS build. This is a string
based on the DeTOS version and the build date, using the following
format: 7.x.x (YY.MM.DD)
