Device differences
- Pearl Nexus: Pearl Nexus does not have a built-in touch screen or display. Pearl Nexus is a headless device, and it is configured and operated using the web-based Admin panel. You can also connect a monitor, keyboard, and mouse — or a touch screen monitor — directly to Pearl Nexus to use the local console feature, and a display connected to the Pearl Nexus HDMI output can show the Device Info screen. Where instructions refer to tapping, you can tap or click depending on the device you are using.
