Thor VM1 with Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 2009 User Guide 3
GETTING STARTED
Overview
The Thor VM1 Vehicle Mount Computer (VMC) is a rugged, vehicle mounted computer
running a Microsoft® Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 operating system and capa-
ble of wireless data communications from a fork-lift truck or any properly configured
vehicle. Wireless communications are supported over a 802.11 WLAN network and,
optionally, over a WWAN network. The Bluetooth® module supports Bluetooth printers
and scanners.
The Thor VM1 is designed for use with a vehicle dock. Two models of docks are sup-
ported, a Standard Dock and an Enhanced Dock. The dock installs in the vehicle and
connects to vehicle power. The dock provides conditioned input power for the Thor VM1.
Peripheral connections are on the dock. The Thor VM1 is designed to easily be removed
from the dock with a latch on the lower rear of the Thor VM1 housing. Since the dock
remains attached to the vehicle, the Thor VM1 computer can easily be moved from one
vehicle equipped with a dock to another vehicle equipped with a dock.
The Thor VM1 contains a UPS battery which, when fully charged, can power the Thor
VM1 for a minimum of 30 minutes. This can be when the Thor VM1 is not attached to a
dock or when the Thor VM1 is attached to a dock but the vehicle power is interrupted,
such as when the vehicle battery is being changed.
Contact Technical Assistance for information on the latest upgrades for your Thor VM1.
Caution: Before shipping the Thor VM1, be sure to Disconnect UPS Battery
