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 an AC wall outlet to
an appropriate DC level. AC to DC power input for the computer is delivered to the
dock via an optional external power supply and adapter cable. See

When external power is removed, the UPS automatically powers the computer
with no user intervention. When running on UPS power, the power management
time outs may be different than when vehicle power is applied.
The UPS allows the computer 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 computer for a minimum of 30 minutes at
temperatures of 20ºC (68ºF) or greater.
If operating on UPS power and the UPS battery becomes critically low, the
computer performs a controlled shutdown.
If there is no external power available, there must be 10% or greater power in the
UPS battery or the computer does not power On.

battery can be charged. Charging is disabled if the temperature is
outside of the 0° to 35°C safe charging range. In order to maintain
UPS charge, the Thor VM1A should have power applied while the unit
is within the safe charging range for at least an hour each day.
The UPS battery is not charged when the internal temperature is below 0°C
(32°F). This corresponds to an ambient (room) temperature of approximately
-10°C (-14°F).
The UPS battery is not charged when the internal temperature is above 45°C
(113°F). This corresponds to an ambient (room) temperature of approximately
35°C (95°F).
