-==== Monitor Required ==== 
-WPF is the GUI library that the **Zoo Admin Application** utilizes. 
- 
-A WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) application can run on a machine without a physical monitor, but it might not be visible or functional in the same way as when a monitor is connected. WPF applications primarily rely on a visual display, and without a monitor, it can't render their UI elements. 
- 
-If WPF can’t initialize the display & all the display details so it fails. 
-“Headless” computer setup with the Lan Zoo may display a blank dialog. 
- 
-{{ :zoo:blank_zoo.png?400 |}} 
- 
-**Workaround:**  
-Add a monitor. 
-or 
-Remote on the headless Zoo server with MS RDP ([[https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/remote/understanding-remote-desktop-protocol|Remote Desktop Protocol]]) from another workstation.  
-It appears that RDP provides what WPF needs & can display the dialog.
