What is a network monitor?
A network monitor can be used for the same purposes as a common monitor. It also provides the 
functionalities of most computers, such as an Internet connection, creating documents, editing 
images, via a connection to the host PC over the LAN. In addition, it allows you to connect an 
external device (DSC, MP3, external storage me dia) to the USB port and play music, movies and 
games. It is a new concept monitor.
You also can share the screen being displayed on your network monitor with other users by 
connecting a projector or other display device to its VGA OUT port. You can use this functionality for 
video conferencing and a variety of shared tasks.
In addition, because Windows XP is installed on your network monitor, you can perform Internet 
searches and USB memory searches independently of your host PC.

							 What is XPe Client?
 
An Microsoft Windows XP Embedded(XPe) client uses the Microsoft Windows XP Embedded operating
system. When an XPe client is connected to a Citrix ICA server or another server that can provide the 
Microsoft RDP service, data for the keyboard, mouse, audio/video and display are transmitted through 
the network between the client and the server.  
 
  Connectable Servers  
 
A Citrix ICA 
(Independent Computing Architecture) Server 
-A Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 Server where the terminal services and Citrix MetaFrame are 
installed
-
A Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Server where the Citrix MetaFrame is installed  
 
A Microsoft RDP 
(Remote Desktop Protocol) Server   
-A Microsoft Windows 2000 Server where the terminal services are installed
-A Microsoft Windows 2003 Sever
-A Microsoft Windows XP Professional
This manual describes the functions provided by the XPe Client. However, it does not explain 
general functionalities of Windows XP Embedded. For more general information on  Windows XP 
Embedded  , refer to Windows XP Embedded Help  provided by Microsoft. 
 
 
 
 
 Logon
Logon
  When the client starts, you can logon to the server by entering your username and password. The 
default usernames already configured are ‘Administr
ator’ and ‘User’, and their passwords are a space.  
 
Auto Log On
The client can log onto the server using a predefined  account without the user information having to be 
manually entered every time.  
Only an administrator (that is, only when you logged on as an administrator) can specify the username, 
password, and domain for an account for which ‘auto log on’ is activated. At this time, the password 
cannot be left empty.
