17 INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING A THIN CLIENT
(EPATEC MODEL).
The Thin Client is recommended for configurations where the VGA cable cannot be used
to connect the central unit with a second monitor (e.g. the passive screen LCD-15SVGA)
due to too much distance. The central unit and the Thin Client will communicate via Ethernet
(local network or point to point) and the Thin Client will be in charge of sending the VGA signal
to the passive screen. Both monitors show the same video signal. A mouse connected to
the Thin Client may also be used with to interact with the CNC.
The central unit and the Thin Client communicate through a remote desktop software, in this
case VNC, where the CNC is the server and the Think Client is the client.
The passive screen permits having a second work station consisting of the screen itself and
an operator panel OP-PANEL-H/E. Connect the operator panel to the CAN bus of the system
and the softkeys of the screen to the operator panel.
The softkeys of the passive screen will only operative if they are connected to the horizontal or vertical
keyboard.
