How to configure DTU via Citrix

Citrix uses its own connection application known as the Citrix Workspace (formerly Citrix Receiver). The Citrix Virtual Desktop Assistant (VDA) must be installed on each host system.

Citrix is configured in two different ways:

1. XenDesktop - With a XenDesktop configuration, the user has exclusive access to the host machine. This is basically the same as a Remote Desktop Connection (RDC).

2. XenApp - With a XenApp configuration, the application is allowed to be run on the host OS by the user while the underlying hardware is shared by multiple users.

USB redirection - Requirements

In order to fully configure the DTU through Citrix, a user will require the following:

• A Citrix server/environment, either Citrix XenApp or XenDesktop.
• A Citrix client, either Citrix Workspace or Citrix Receiver.
• A Windows server for sharing the session.
• A VM with Windows 10 or 11.
• The latest supported Wacom Tablet driver - this is dependent on tablet hardware and the VM's OS.

USB redirection - Server Setup

1. On the Citrix server, open the Citrix Studio application. Under Console Root in the left-hand column, expand Citrix Studio and then select Policies. Under Actions on the right-hand side of Citrix Studio, click on the Create Policy link.

2. In the Create Policy window, click on the ‘All Settings’ drop down and select USB Devices to show the four available USB redirection options.

3. Locate the ‘Client USB device redirection’ option and click the Select link to the right of it. Within the Client USB device redirection window, select the ‘Allowed’ radio button and then click the OK button at the bottom to confirm this selection and return to the Create Policy window.

4. Locate the ‘Client USB device redirection rules’ option and click on the Select link to the right of it. Within the Client USB device redirection rules window, click on the Add button and enter the redirection values for the tablet to be used.

5. Locate the ‘Client USB device optimization rules’ option and click on the Select link to the right of it. Within the Client USB device optimization rules window, click on the Add button and enter the optimization values for the tablet to be used.

NB: See the Tablet Values section below for the appropriate redirection/optimization values of the tablet to be used. Some tablets require more than one value; use the Add button to create as many input fields as necessary for your device. When all the device values have been added, click the OK button at the bottom to confirm these entries and return to the Create Policy window.

6. Click the Next button at the bottom of the Create Policy window and then select the ‘All objects in the site’ radio button. Select Next again to proceed to the Summary page. The policy must then be named, enabled with the check box and optionally be given a description. Finally, click on the Finish button at the bottom of the Create Policy window to finalize the new policy and return to the Citrix Studio window.

7. The Citrix Policies should now contain the newly created policy. Select that new policy and confirm under the policy’s Overview tab that the details within match the information entered in 6., and that the priority matches the number it's assigned within the policies list.

8. Click on the Settings tab of the selected policy and confirm that each of the three selected options are present in this list. All selections should include their name, a brief description of the types of devices affected, and the values that were entered. They resemble the following:

Client USB device optimization rules

• User setting – ICA\USB Devices
• Mode=00000002 VID=056A PID=035A class=03 #DTH-1152-Pen
• Mode=00000002 VID=056A PID=0368 class=03 #DTH-1152-Touch

Client USB device redirection

• User setting – ICA\USB Devices
• Allowed (Default: Prohibited)

Client USB device redirection rules

• User setting – ICA\USB Devices
• Allow: VID=056A PID=035A #DTH-1152-Pen
• Allow: VID=056A PID=0368 #DTH-1152-Touch

USB redirection - Client Setup

1. Login to the client machine using an administrative account.
2. Open the Run... dialog, type ‘regedit’ and open the Registry Editor.
3. In the Registry Editor window, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Citrix\ICA Client\GenericUSB.
4. In the GenericUSB key, double-click on the DeviceRules Multi-String Value to edit it.
5. Inside the DeviceRules Edit Multi-String window, within the Value data field will be multiple entries. Locate the Allow section of the existing entries and add new values for the tablet to be used.

NB: See the Tablet Values section below for the appropriate Client Registry DeviceRules values of the tablet to be used.

7. Click the OK button to confirm the added values and return to the Registry Editor window.
8. Close the Registry Editor window and reboot the client machine.

USB redirection - VM Setup

1. Install the latest Wacom Tablet Driver for the OS used by the Virtual Machine. The latest drivers can be found on our website.
