Downloading and installing terminal server.

The software to load terminal server is located on an internal web site. Open Internet Explorer and type

http://10.1.20.59/ts/install.exe

in the address bar. You will get a FILE DOWNLOAD dialog box (see below) that will ask you what to do with the file.

It might look slightly different, depending on the version of Internet Explorer that you are using. Click on the OPEN button. If you don't see an OPEN button, click on the RUN button.

If you see a SECURITY dialog box and/or WINZIP dialog box, click on the YES button to continue.

Once the installation is complete, Click on the START button and select Programs | Terminal Service Client | Client Connection Manager. Then right-click on the CMH TERMINAL icon. This brings up a pop-up menu (see below). Select PROPERTIES from the popup menu.

This will open up the PROPERTIES dialog box. Select the CONNECTION OPTIONS tab and click on the FULL SCREEN option button. This will ensure that terminal server will use your full screen rather than just part of your screen.

Click on the OK button to close this dialog box.

For a second time, right click on the CMH terminal icon to bring up the popup menu. Select CREATE SHORTCUT ON THE DESKTOP from the popup menu. If you do not see an option for "Create Shortcut on the Desktop", you can select "Send To" and then "Desktop (create shortcut)".

Can I load terminal server on my laptop? Your laptop needs to be connected to the network using a high speed internet connection or it needs to be attached directly to the hospital network. Follow the same steps described above. This will allow you to use SPSS on your laptop as long as you have a direct network connection or a connection via high speed internet access.
