Power System

The Power System in VMOD is designed to protect your vehicle and your VMOD. When
you power off your vehicle, the VMOD will remain running for 5 minutes to allow for
synchronization of content over the Wi-Fi network. If the synchronization is detected, it
will continue for up to 2 hours until activity is complete. VMOD keeps track of its total
time used and will shut down when the VMOD has been using the automobile battery for
an extended period of time with the accessory line off.
This system will protect the operating system in VMOD from data corruption caused by
sudden shutdown. If your VMOD is wired in a manner which disconnects all power when
the VMOD is shut down, this interlock will be defeated. If this is the case, you must
manually shut down VMOD from the System Settings Advanced menu or by pushing the
power button and waiting for the unit to shut down.
When the VMOD detects a change in the vehicle power condition, it will display an on-
screen prompt advising you of the situation. A timer will also be displayed. When the
timer counts down to 0:00, VMOD will shut itself down to conserve power. If there is
currently playing media, it will pause automatically when the VMOD receives
notification of a power event. You may still use the remote to resume playback, and if the
power dialog is dismissed by restoring power VMOD will automatically resume playback.
The VMOD acknowledges both a push of the power button or re-connection of the
"Accessory" power connection in the vehicle as resumption of power. If the VMOD has
detected that the system may be in a critically low power condition, you will need to turn
the vehicle's "Accessory" power connection back on in order to cancel the shutdown.
Running VMOD on the vehicle battery for an extended period of time may result in a
drained battery.
