Software !!better!! | Windows Thin Client

1. Executive Summary Windows Thin Client Software transforms standard x86 hardware (or legacy PCs) into dedicated endpoints connecting to a centralized Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) or Remote Desktop Services (RDS) environment. Unlike thick clients that run applications locally, thin client software strips the OS to a minimal shell—often Windows 10/11 IoT Enterprise or a locked-down Windows Pro—blocking local application installation, data persistence, and user customization. The result is a stateless, secure, and centrally manageable endpoint. 2. Core Architecture A Windows-based thin client runs a locked-down Windows OS with three essential layers:

	SMART Controls- Micro	SMART Controls- Compact	SMART Controls- Elite
Target Customer/Market	Smallest boilers, under 25 sootblowers, package boilers, industrial boilers, budget/price-sensitive	mid-size biomass/waste to energy/smaller utility boilers, 40 and under sootblowers, mid-priced, limited expandability, replace old Copes Vulcan controls	full size utility or recovery boilers, any number of sootblowers, more features & capabilities, fully expandable
3 Key Benefits to Customers	1) Quick Delivery Time (6-8 weeks) industry leading 2) Low cost 3) User flexibility and maintainability	1) Control multiple boilers/headers at a time 2) full featured sootblower control system (internal note- without SMART Clean^™ expansion)	1) More effectively troubleshoot mechanical sootblower issues (catch before failure- avoid outage/plugging), predictive maintenance 2) Any open protocol interface 3) Able to upgrade
3 Key Features	1) 10.4″ touch screen operator interface standard 2) 5 user configurable sequences 3) Single Header Controls included as standard	1) Multiple touch screen sizes available 10.4″-15″ 2) Multiple header/unit control (control multiple boilers at a time) 3) Available DCS interface	1) Expandability to SMART Clean^™ 2) Unlimited quantity of sootblower controls/headers 3) Advanced Reporting/Monitoring capabilities 4) Any open protocol interface
Common Features	PLC based control, open architecture, standard Clyde Industries software which includes: both manual and sequential control and all standard interlock and protection protocols, same base hardware design concepts across all platforms
Additional Add-ons	installation, commissioning, support
