Faronics Insight User Guide
Expanded iOS Teacher Assistant
New features in the iOS Teacher Assistant App include Remote Control Student and Remote
Control Teacher. Remote Control Student allows a Teacher to be mobile in the classroom while
still having access to remotely use the mouse and keyboard on a selected student. Remote Control
Teacher will provide a remote control session with the teacher’s machine that is paired to the iOS
Teachers Assistant App. Remote Control Teacher allows all the features inside the Insight Teacher
Console to be leveraged remotely and any other application running on the teacher machine to be
utilized remotely by the teacher or teacher assistant.
Expanded iOS Student
The iOS Student now includes the ability to receive a “Show Teacher” and “Show Student” Screen
broadcast. A new iOS Insight web browser is included in the student to provide thumbnail views as
students interact with the web. In addition, the iOS web browser can be configured to limit web
access and view website history.
* Due to iOS memory limitations the maximum screen size that can be displayed in "Show
Teacher" is 3000 pixels wide.

Tech Console Deep Freeze Support
Network Administrators can now use Tech Console v7.7 to centrally manage Deep Freeze settings
on supported computers.
Faronics provides a tool for Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Mac 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7
systems called Deep Freeze. Deep Freeze gives Network Administrators enhanced options for
configuring shared computers, such as desired state protection. Once Deep Freeze is installed and
enabled, Network Administrators can modify the Deep Freeze state. Tech Console provides the
ability to view which of two settings are in force, and allows Network Administrators to remotely
change the setting.
