Setting Up Remote Display - viewLinc 5.1

Only users assigned to the default viewLinc Administrator group can set up a remote display. Contact your IT network administrator if you require assistance

1. Set up a remote display view.
2. On the remote display terminal, create a Windows account and set it up for automatic log on (for example, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324737).
3. In the Windows Startup folder, create a desktop shortcut to open a supported browser. This ensures the browser launches automatically when a user logs in.
4. Disable Windows updates to prevent popups on the display screen.
5. Launch the terminal browser and set the default home page to your viewLinc address, followed by /display (for example, http://viewLinc.com/display).
6. Set the remote terminal browser to work in full screen mode (press F11).
7. Log in to the viewLinc remote display application with the remote user account name and password. The user’s default view opens automatically. These settings are remembered until a user logs out from the display application.

If the display reboots for any reason, the Windows auto logon setting automatically relaunches the browser and logs in as the last user.
