This week the same S10 has “trap faulted” twice. Both times the errors have been different and unlike the trap in my first post these told the user to press the power button.
What should I do if anything to prevent further traps? Should I instruct the user to simply hit the power button every time they happen?
Btw still using WTOS 6.5.0.30.
Thanks
Hi aLiE,
Not quite the answering I was hoping for, but it’ll do for now 😉
Btw you using WTOS7 on any S10s?
The problem seems to have been fixed by removing TCX Rich Sound.
Anyone experience this?
Awesome ConfGen! Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I’m getting more comfortable with the device and liking it a lot compared to an HP thin client I’ve previously tested.
Some more questions inline with your answers.

3. xpress.rom is only available through Wyse support and not really needed as the BIOS does not change often.
Regarding the BIOS:
– Every time the device boots and connects to the FTP server I can see that it tries to download xpress.rom and fails. Is this normal?
– Should the BIOS settings such as: password, time, date be configured before deploying a new S10?
– There is a video memory setting which can be configured from 4-16MB (default 9MB). How do I know what to set this to?

8. Until WTOS 6.x is was copied. Starting with WTOS7 only a small bootfile is stored locally and rest is loaded at boottime. Therefore for WTOS7 on S-class a persistent connection is needed. Not with WTOS 6.x or lower.
So, when using WTOS7 the RCA_boot is stored on the device and on startup it loads RCA_wnos from the FTP server? If the connection to the server is lost will the S10 still function until the next reboot or will it crash?
Thanks for your continued support!
I solved this! The default behaviour is to prompt the user to accept or reject the vnc connection. I wasn’t seeing this prompt as I didn’t have a monitor attached whilst I was testing.
When I configured my ftp server with a wnos.ini and added the vncprompt=no I was able to connect.
@tarasov Thank you for explaining! Spasiba 😉
Thank you all for your replies!
@ConfGen: I’m just experimenting at the moment. Try to get acquainted with the S10 and TCX. I connected a user’s Palm PDA and could see that it was recognised on the S10 in the Event log, but did not pass to the Windows XP machine. I haven’t tried with TCX yet.
@ConfGen & tarasov: So only USB and Audio work with the S10? Is this because the hardware isn’t capable?UPDATE: I contacted my reseller of the maintenance contract as Wyse are not getting back to me.
My reseller has confirmed that there is something wrong with the Wyse portal and have reported it to Wyse.
I have contacted Wyse because something is not right! I have tried to download this firmware on two different computers and I get the same result.
Can’t be wrong on my end. Must be something with my account at Wyse or something.
ConfGen,
Thanks for your reply. I’ll get the S10 and then do some testing. Are ThinOS upgrades, maintenance contracts and TCX licenses available to purchase direct from Wyse or must I find a reseller?
