Wwan; Gps; Power; Vehicle Dc Power Supply - Honeywell Thor VM2 User Manual

The user cannot select PIN authentication or encryption on connections from the Thor VM2. However, the Thor VM2 sup-
ports authentication requests from pairing devices. If a pairing device requests authentication or encryption, the Thor VM2
displays a prompt for the PIN or passcode. Maximum encryption is 128 bit. Encryption is based on the length of the user's
passcode.
Bluetooth simultaneously supports one printer as a slave Bluetooth device and one scanner, either as a slave or as a mas-
ter Bluetooth device.
• The LED on the Bluetooth scanner illuminates during a scanning operation.
• Bar code data captured by the Bluetooth scanner is manipulated by the settings in the Thor VM2 Data Collection control
panel applet.
• Multiple beeps may be heard during a bar code scan using a mobile Bluetooth scanner. The mobile Bluetooth scanner
may beep as the bar code data is accepted/rejected and the Thor VM2 may beep during final bar code data manipulation.

WWAN

WWAN (Wireless Wide Area Networking) is available on the Thor VM2. A slot is provided for a SIM card.

GPS

GPS (Global Positioning System) is available on the Thor VM2.

Power

Vehicle DC Power Supply

Vehicle power input for the Thor VM2 dock is 10V to 60V DC and is accepted without the need to perform any manual oper-
ation within the Thor VM2 dock, see
conditioned power output for the Thor VM2. By using a specified DC/DC power supply, input voltage of 50-150V DC can be
accepted, see 60-144 VDC Vehicles (50-150 VDC Power Supply, Screws on Top of Lid)
Vehicles (50-150 VDC Power Supply, Screws on Top of Lid)
Power input is fused for protection and the fuse is externally accessible, see

External AC Power Supply

If DC power is not available – for example, in an office environment – an optional external Universal Input Power Supply can
be used to convert AC wall power to an appropriate DC level. AC to DC power input for the Thor VM2 is delivered to the
dock via an optional external power supply and adapter cable. See

Uninterruptible Power Supply

The Thor VM2 contains an internal UPS battery.
The UPS battery is automatically charged when the Thor VM2 is placed in a powered dock, provided the safe charging tem-
perature conditions below are met.
When external power is removed, the UPS automatically powers the Thor VM2 with no user intervention. When running on
UPS power, the power management timeouts may be different than when vehicle power is applied.
The UPS allows the Thor VM2 to continue operation when not mounted in a dock or when the vehicle battery is being
swapped. When fully charged the UPS battery is designed to power the Thor VM2 for a minimum of 30 minutes at tempera-
tures of -20ºC (-4ºF) or greater.
If operating on UPS power and the UPS battery becomes critically low, the Thor VM2 performs a controlled shutdown.
If there is no external power available, there must be 10% or greater power in the UPS battery or the Thor VM2 does not
power on.
The UPS status LED and the Battery Control Panel can be used to monitor the state of the UPS battery.
Safety requirements restrict the temperature at which the Li-Ion UPS battery can be charged. Charging is disabled if
the ambient temperature is outside of the 0ºC to 35ºC safe charging range. In order to maintain UPS charge the Thor
VM2 should have power applied while the unit is within the safe charging range for at least an hour each day.
