There's a Startup option for "go to the Configuration screen" or "run current application".
What constitutes the "current application" remains a question for me. In my opinion, the "Current Application" should be the last application that was run on the terminal.
I know that in some older versions of RSView ME, the "Current Application" had to not only be Run, but also had to be Shut Down from within RSView ME in order to be considered the "Current Application". Running it once then powering down the terminal didn't set it as the "Current Application".
In your case, though, it's probably just the Startup option.
