There is a ThinGreen Line between what is labeled “green technology” and that which is “truly green” by

its very nature.

Almost all of the power required to run your computer is dissipated as heat!

1 KW = 1,314 BTU More Watts means more heat which

requires cooling, which in turn requires more power…

resources involved Thin Clients

◦ Maybe never◦ Smaller

Computer disposal is not free and it’s certainly not green!!!

Thin Clients require fewer raw materials, natural resources and energy to create and dispose of.

Thin Clients enter and leave the create and destroy cycle significantly less.

Thin Clients have a much smaller carbon footprint while they are in operation.

Computer uses 95 WATTS Runs 12 hours per day US population ~ 300 Million people 75% of people have a computer

Replace PC’s with ThinManager Ready Thin Clients Add a terminal server for every 25 Thin Clients Annual Savings of 69 Billion kWhrs per year US home uses 8,900 kWhrs per year Save enough power to supply 7,800,000 homes 500 mWatt Coal Fired Plant – 3.5 Billion kWhrs 20 Coal Fired Power Plants!!!!

Can you turn a PC based workstation off?• Real-time trending• Historical data logging• IT pushing updates and backups• Running remote desktop• Booting and application start up

Turn an ACP Enabled thin client off when not in use!

• Sessions are always running on terminal servers• Boot and reconnect in 60 seconds or less

The On/Off Factor

Problem Fear of running diverse applications

(such as HMI and Scheduling/MES) on a single plant floor computer resulting in multiple computers

Solution MultiSession on one ThinManager Ready

thin client Extrapolate across 20 or more clients

with terminal servers for the applications

Why use Two When One Will Do

Problem Critical application requires two identical

HMI stations Solution

Instant Failover and Redundant Ethernet provide redundancy

Install second preconfigured Thin Client – small footprint, minimal space

Fear of Failure
