At this time (T7), the LOW_HARD_DELAY is starting to countdown. Once LOW_HARD__DELAY is over, the system power is removed abruptly.    Before  T1  The system stays off. power is fed in, but Ignition is OFF. T1  Ignition is ON and the ON_DELAY is starting to count down. T1 ~ T2  This duration is and it is ranged from 1 to 18000 seconds. T2 Once the ON_DELAY is over, the system will stay On or OFF, depending on the BIOS setting “POWER-ON after Power Fail”.  If “POWER-ON after Power Fail” is set as ON, the system will be powered ON. If “POWER-ON after Power Fail” is set as OF, the system will stay OFF and you could press the power button to turn on system. T2 ~ T3  The system is under normal operation. T3  At this time, the Ignition is OFF, and OFF_EVENT_DELAY is starting to count down. T3 ~ T4  This duration is OFF_EVENT_DELAY and it is ranged from 1 to 18000 seconds. T4 When the OFF_EVENT_DELAY is over, the system will send a power button signal to the OS and the user application should prepare the shutdown process. The HARD_OFF_DELAY is starting to count down. T4 ~ T5  This duration is HARD_OFF_DELAY and it is ranged from 1 to 18000 seconds. T5 When the HARD_OFF_DELAY is count to zero, the system power is removed abruptly to avoid extra and abnormal power drain from battery. This parameter is fixed with a value of 60 seconds.

A1: The minimum value on LOW_DELAY parameter is 1 second. If the voltage remains lower than the LOW_THRESHOLD in the duration of LOW_DELAY, the low-battery event will be raised and immediately send a power button press signal to OS.   During the duration of LOW_DELAY, if the battery voltage is back to be higher than LOW_THRESHOLD, the LOW_DELAY will be reset to predetermined value and stop count down.  Therefore, the LOW_DELAY parameter acts as a filter to prevent incorrect low-battery-event from happening.  4.3.2 Power Management demo program  A. Check the files. Make sure that there are two components include in TREK-520 Power Management Tool. One is “AdvXP_CAN.dll”, another one is “TREK-520 Power Manager.exe”.    B. Start up the program Execute Power Management tool and you will see a message box shows “Connect OK”.    Then Click OK button and you will see the main page as below.

Figure 4.9 power management demo utility   Figure 4.9 Off event delay   Off Event Delay – it means after 5 seconds delay from receiving of ignition OFF signal, EC controller will send a shutdown event to make system start shutdown process   Figure 4.9 Hard Off delay  Hard off Delay – it means after 30 seconds from shutdown event, EC controller will force power cut off at the same time.
 32 www.advantech.com  Figure 4.9 On delay  On Delay – it means after 2 seconds from receiving of ignition ON signal, EC controller will send a power-on event to make system start booting process.   Figure 4.9 Low delay   Low Delay – it means after 30 seconds delay from receiving of Battery Voltage LOW signal, EC controller will send a shutdown event to make system start shutdown process.   Figure 4.9 Low hard delay   Low Hard Delay – it means after 60 seconds from Low Voltage shutdown event, EC controller will force power cut off at the same time    Figure 4.9 Battery voltage Threshold level setting  You could set the LOW battery voltage value by changing level 0 to 65. For example, if you’re using 12V battery, and you set level as 50, it means the LOW battery voltage value is 10.147 + 50 x 0.0146 = 10.877 V.  Checks which source you’re connecting. DC supply or 12V or 24V battery.   Figure 4.9 check 12 or 24 battery  Check the ignition signal and see if it’s ON or OFF.

 34 www.advantech.com  Figure 4.9 Read the value D. Set the value The buttons which indicates by blue squares can SET the value you want to the system.
 35 www.advantech.com Figure 4.9 Set value   Execute “Power management test”, the Battery Voltage Level has 12V and 24V, you may set from 0~65 levels, press “Get” to know the value you set.        Figure 4.10   1. Off Event Delay: You may set how many seconds you want system auto shut down after ignition off.   2. On Delay: You may set how many seconds you want the system to auto power on.   3. Low Delay: When the battery voltage is below certain value you set, it will automatically shut down to prevent the system will consume the battery.     4.3.4 TREK-520 power consumption   OS: Windows Embedded Standard Burn-in test V6.0   Idle Mode  100% Burn-in Test Mode  Off mode (S5) w/o TREK-303H  12V / 1.04A 12V / 1.20A w/ TREK-303H  12V / 1.51A 12V / 1.94A 12V / 1.75mA  *Doesn’t support S1, S3, S4
 36 www.advantech.com  4.4 Dead reckoning  We will need a 3-axis accelerometer that our software can talk to.   We use this to characterize driver behavior such as hard accelerations, braking, and cornering. This also can tell us other significant information that can be used in accident reconstruction, etc… This one of the crucial items that we asked for in our specification and our customers’ expectations are making this a definite must have in our system. We won’t be needing any dead reckoning functionality at this point in time… this is something we may want to include in the future but in order to get cost down we have decided to forgo this at this time.   Please confirm that we will have access to this or another accelerometer.  4.5 G- sensor    We currently, we don’t have documents about G-sensor, but a code example is ready for customer reference. This code example ONLY introduces how to access the G-sensor under Windows XP/XPe, but users must control the G-sensor and develop their SW application by themselves. Therefore, customer can decide how to set the sensitivity value when to trigger G-sensor to send signal to CPU and to back end server through WWAN module. G-sensor is located on the motherboard inside the TREK-520. Please refer the link (http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/ADXL345.pdf) for the G-sensor datasheet.
