When Auto-off is enabled, the Suspend timer must be set to Never on the Schemes tab of the Power control
panel. If the Suspend timer is enabled, the Auto-off feature CANNOT shut down the Thor VM1.
When the Auto-off feature is enabled, a warning message appears in the lower right corner of the screen when the
Thor VM1 is 30 seconds away from shutdown and counts the time until shutdown so the user can take action such
as reconnecting truck power or altering the Auto-off parameters to prevent shutdown.
To prevent data loss, the user should save any work in process when this message occurs. Depending on
the system configuration and the condition triggering the shutdown, the user may not be able to prevent the
shutdown.

• If the shutdown when truck power lost option is selected, the timeout period begins when the UPS battery

• If both shutdown when idle and shutdown if truck power is lost are selected, separate timers track the inactivity
period and the period of time since truck power was removed. If the conditions noted above are met for either
timeout period the respective timeout period is reset.
