Ignition Control/Ignition Off
Select either the Ignition Control/Ignition On or the Ignition Control/Ignition Off power
scheme/plan when ignition control of the Thor VM2 power on process is desired.
The Thor VM2 automatically switches between the Ignition Control/Ignition On or the
Ignition Control/Ignition Off power schemes/plans depending on the state of the vehi-
cle ignition input. Default timeouts are shorter in this scheme to conserve the vehicle
battery charge.
The following default timeouts are used in the Ignition Control/Ignition Off power
scheme/plan.
Windows Embedded Standard 7, Windows 7 Professional
Setting
Dim the display
Turn of the display
Put the computer to sleep
Hibernate after
Windows Embedded Standard 2009
Setting
Turn off monitor
Turn of hard disks
System standby/sleep
System hibernate
Note: By default Sleep is disabled and Hibernate is enabled. Because the Thor VM2 with
Windows Embedded Standard 7 or Windows 7 Professional cannot transition from Sleep
to Hibernate due to a limitation of the operating system, Sleep is disabled. Power savings
are significantly greater using Hibernate.
Note: When the Thor VM2 has a Windows 7 operating system and a 32 GB SSD drive the files
necessary for hibernate may result in low disk space if installed applications or data are
using large amounts of hard drive space.
The ignition input wire must be connected. If the user selects this power scheme/plan
but the ignition is On, the Ignition Control/Ignition On scheme/plan is used instead.
Ignition Control/Ignition Off Behavior
When either Ignition Control power scheme/plan is selected and external power is pres-
ent the Thor VM2 behaves as described below. If external power is not present, refer to
the
Thor VM2 with with Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows Embedded Standard User Guide
UPS section for Thor VM2 behavior.
