    Classroom Equipment

    Thin Clients

    Starting Up Thin Clients

    • Turn on thin clients using the power button
    • Login using the machine name (label on monitor and PC) exactly as you see it.
    • Check to make sure the printer is set to your classroom printer (Start-->Printers and Faxes).  Default printer has a black checkmark.

    Shutting Down Thin Clients

    • Shutdown all thin clients nightly (Start--Logoff (of the servers)-->Start-->Shutdown (of the thin client)) 

    • Turn off Monitor (Small button at right or right most button on bottom side.)

     

    Student PCs

    Are now configured to behave more like thin clients.  Additionally, they also will run a scanner.

    Starting Up Student PCs

    • Turn on thin clients using the power button
    • Login using the machine name (label on monitor and PC) exactly as you see it.
    • Click the "Login" button and login using the machine name
    • Click on "Scanner" if you need to start the Accelerated Math Scanner and login appropriately.
    • Check to make sure the printer is set to your classroom printer (Start-->Printers and Faxes).  Default printer has a black checkmark.

    Shutting Down Student PCs

    • Shutdown all student PCs nightly (Start--Logoff (of the servers)-->Shutdown (of the pc)) 

    • Turn off Monitor (Small button at right or right most button on bottom side.)

     

    Teacher PCs

    Are configured more closely to the lab computers.  The major difference is mapping another network T:\ for teacher only files under teachers' login.  For this reason, students should not use a teacher's login on the computer.  Instead, they should use "remote desktop" or logout and login under the student ID.
