General Information

The IGEL Universal Desktop Converter Software (UDC2) allows the migration of existing PC and thin client hardware to a homogeneous IGEL Universal Desktop thin client infrastructure.

Essentially, you have two options for installing the firmware on your devices:

• locally on the device itself
  • via a UDC stick purchased from IGEL Technology
    or
  • via a USB stick that you set up yourself by downloading the UDC2 stick software
• via remote administration

In both cases, you will need

• the IGEL Universal Desktop Converter software
• the IGEL Universal Desktop OS 2 firmware
• the associated licenses.

You will receive the complete package when you purchase the UDC stick from IGEL Technology. The stick contains:

• the IGEL Universal Desktop Converter (UDC2) software
• the IGEL Universal Desktop OS 2 firmware
• a smartcard with the licenses ordered
• this installation manual
• the IGEL Universal Desktop manual (Linux)
• the IGEL Universal Management Suite (Windows) with documentation
  

  In order to use IGEL Universal Desktop OS 2, you will need the appropriate licenses. Licenses for the previous version of the IGEL Universal Desktop OS are no longer valid for the current version. You will need a new smartcard or new licenses issued by IGEL Technology.
