Firmware Versions
The Software tab lists the firmware versions installed. The BIOS, EC and Screen MCU firmware versions are
shown on this tab.
Language
The Software tab displays the localized language version of the OS image. The language is identified as English
only or + an additional language.
The languages are ordered separately and built-in to the OS image. The Thor VM1 may be pre-loaded with an
English only OS. Contact
guage. The built-in languages are added to registry entries and are available immediately upon startup.
Versions
The Versions tab displays the versions of many of the software programs installed. Not all installed software is
included in this list and the list varies depending on the applications loaded on the Thor VM1. The Image line displays
the revision of the system software installed. Refer to the last three digits to determine the revision level.
Versions Tab and the Registry
The Versions tab displays program version details from the registry.
Customized information can be displayed by modifying the Registry using the Registry Editor. Use caution when
editing the Registry and make a backup copy of the registry before changes are made.
The registry settings for the Version tab are under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ LXE \ Version in the reg-
istry.
To add a user application to the Version panel, create a new string value under the HKLM\Software\LXE\Version
key. The string name should be the Application name to appear in the Version window. The data for the value
should be the version number to appear in the Version window.
Version strings can be equal to or less than 254 characters. Because the strings are displayed in a text box, any
number can be accommodated, up to the 64K byte text box limitation.
