NOTE: When using “Kiosk” mode within the ”Windows Start Mode”, the only application available for

within the “Windows Start Mode”, the emulator will automatically launch after a thin client reboot, but
full system access will be available to the user.
If “Kiosk” mode is selected, and the administrator wishes to access administrative features of the thin
client, then the thin client must be rebooted. The reboot must be performed by recycling power on
the thin client. During the reboot, a small window will appear with a 5 second countdown. During this
countdown, simultaneously pressing the “Alt” and “F4” buttons will interrupt the boot, and allow the
administrator to log in. If the administrator password has been set, the password will also be required.
