The Select a Citrix Server or Published Application screen
will appear and If your Windows CE device is not on the
same network as the Citrix server you want to connect to
(for example, if you are on the other side of a router, across
the Internet, or using RAS to connect to a remote network
containing Citrix servers), the server and published
application list will not contain that server. In this case, click
“Server Location” and go to Step 5. Otherwise, scroll
through the list and select the Citrix server or published
application or type the name of the Citrix server or
published application in the edit field. Click “Next” to
continue, and go to Step 6.

In the Server Location screen, the ICA Windows CE Client
uses the information entered in the Server Location dialog
to help locate available Citrix servers and published
applications. The default value entered in the Address field
is Auto-Locate. To use Auto-Locate, your Windows CE
device and the Citrix server you want to connect to must be
on the same local network. If you are on another network
(for example, if you are on the other side of a router, across
the Internet, or connected by RAS) you must enter the IP
address or DNS name of a Citrix server on the network that
contains the Citrix server you want to connect to. Click

Scroll through the list and select the name of the Citrix
server or published application you want to connect to.
Click “Next” to continue.

The Specify an Application screen will appears and in the
Command Line field, enter the path and name of an
application to run on the server once the logon to the Citrix
server is successful. Leave this field blank to run a Windows
NT desktop on the Citrix server. Working Directory lets you
associate a directory with the application specified in the
Command Line field. Enter the drive and path of the
working directory in the Working Directory field. For
example, if the application Notepad.exe is in the C:\WTSRV
directory on the Citrix server, type C:\WTSRV\Notepad.exe
in the Command Line field. If you use Notepad to work on
documents in the C:\My Documents directory, type C:\My
Documents in the Working Directory field. When you log
on to the Citrix server, Notepad begins. In Notepad, if you
click the File menu, the directory C:\My Documents is
displayed. Click “Next” to continue.

9.
In the Compression, Cache, and Sound screen, click
Compress Data Stream to reduce the amount of data
transferred between the ICA Windows CE Client and the
Citrix server hosting the session. (If your connection is
bandwidth-limited, enabling compression may increase
performance. If your client device is on a high-speed LAN,
you may not need compression.) The Cache feature is not
supported in this release. Click “Enable Sound” to enable
sound support. Remote applications will be able to play
sounds on your client. From the pull-down list, select a
sound presentation quality level. High provides the
greatest audio quality but should only be used when
bandwidth consumption is not a concern. Medium results
in less bandwidth consumption than when using High.
Compression of sound data provides greater bandwidth
efficiency but reduces sound quality somewhat. This value
is recommended for most LAN-based connections. Low
offers the most efficient use of bandwidth but also
decreases sound quality severely. This value is

most modem connections. Click “Next” to continue.
10. By default, the Citrix server or published application name
appears in the edit field. You can accept this name or enter
another. The name you choose will be the name of the

Troubleshooting Your Terminal
The following table lists some possible situations that may arise
during the use of your terminal and provides easy answers and
solutions. If you still encounter problems which you cannot
resolve, please call any authorized dealer or distributor for
assistance.
Problem
Solution
When the terminal is turned on,
nothing happens.
Check the power cord. It should be
plugged into an AC outlet and should
be properly connected to the AC
power connector on the terminal’s
back panel.
If the terminal needs a SmartCard to
power-on, make sure that the
SmartCard is inserted properly. See
“Turning On Your System” on page 13
for more detail.
When the terminal is turned on,
the Terminal Connection Manager
or the Setup Wizard appears, but
the mouse is not working.
Make sure that the mouse is plugged
properly into the PS/2 mouse port on
the terminal’s back panel. See
“Connecting the Mouse” on page 8 for
more detail.
During the terminal’s Power-On
Self-Test (POST), a message is
displayed: “Keyboard not
detected”.
Make sure that the keyboard is
properly connected to the terminal’s
PS/2 keyboard port on the terminal’s
back panel. See “Connecting the
Keyboard” on page 7 for more detail.
