A stylus replacement kit is available. 2-12 Rev. (a) Set Power Scheme Timers Start > Settings > Control Panel > Power > Schemes Change the parameter values and tap OK to save the changes. User Idle An amount of time has passed, set by the User Idle timer, and the device shuts down a minimum number of services e.g., backlights. The System Idle timer and the Suspend timer have not expired yet. System Idle An amount of time has passed, set by the System Idle timer, and the device shuts down a few more services e.g., display. The System Idle timer has expired and the Suspend timer has not expired yet. Suspend Suspend mode is entered when (1) the unit is inactive for a predetermined period of time, (2) the user taps the Power key, or (3) Start > Suspend is chosen. Inactivity means that internal devices that reset the power state are not active and the Suspend Timer has expired. Shutdown An amount of time has passed, set by the Shutdown timer, and the Thor VM2C performs an orderly shutdown. UPS Power Scheme This power scheme is automatically selected any time the Thor VM2C is operating from UPS power. This scheme overrides any user selected power configuration mode. Switch state to User Idle Default is After 30 seconds Switch state to System Idle Default is After 1 minute Switch state to Suspend Default is After 10 minutes Shutdown Default is After 20 minutes AC/DC Power Scheme This power scheme is used when the AC/DC power configuration mode is selected. Switch state to User Idle Default is After 15 minutes Switch state to System Idle Default is After 1 hour Switch state to Suspend Default is After 8 hours Shutdown Default is Never Ignition Control Power Scheme, Ignition On This power scheme is used when the Ignition Control power configuration mode is selected and the vehicle ignition is On. Switch state to User Idle Default is After 15 minutes Switch state to System Idle Default is After 1 hour Switch state to Suspend Default is After 8 hours Shutdown Default is Never 2-13 Rev. (a) Ignition Control Power Scheme, Ignition Off This power scheme is used when the Ignition Control power configuration mode is selected and the vehicle ignition is Off. Switch state to User Idle Default is After 1 minute Switch state to System Idle Default is After 5 minutes Switch state to Suspend Default is After 1 hour Shutdown Default is After 8 hours Auto On Power Scheme This power scheme is used when the Auto On power configuration mode is selected. Switch state to User Idle Default is After 1 minute Switch state to System Idle Default is After 1 hour Switch state to Suspend Default is After 8 hours Shutdown Default is Never The timers are cumulative. The System Idle timer begins the countdown after the User Idle timer has expired and the Suspend timer begins the countdown after the System Idle timer has expired. When the User Idle timer is set to “Never”, the power scheme timers never place the Thor VM2C in User Idle, System Idle, Suspend or Shutdown modes (even when the Thor VM2C is idle). Using the UPS Power Scheme Defaults listed above, the cumulative effect results in the following: The backlight turns off after 30 seconds of no activity, The display turns off after 90 seconds of no activity (1 minute + 30 seconds), The Thor VM2C enters Suspend after 11 minutes and 30 seconds of no activity, And the Thor VM2C shuts down after 31 minutes and 30 seconds of no activity. 2-14 Rev. (a) Adjust Speaker Volume The Thor VM2C has two speakers, located on the bottom of the unit. Speaker volume can be adjusted to a comfortable level for the listener by using the keypad or by changing parameters in the Volume & Sounds control panel. Using the Keypad Note: Sounds must be enabled (Settings > Control Panel > Volume & Sounds) before the following key sequences can adjust the volume. The volume is increased or decreased one step each time the volume key sequence is pressed. To adjust speaker volume, locate the Blue key located below the display. Press the Blue key. Adjust the speaker volume : Use the P1 key for volume Up and P2 key for volume Down. Adjust volume until the speaker volume is satisfactory. Press the Blue again key to exit this mode. The Blue modifier also times out after 5 seconds of inactivity. The LED for the Blue key is lit as long as the blue modifier mode is active. Volume control using a keypad key press has volume setting increments that match those supported by the Volume and Sounds control panel. Volume does not “roll-over” from minimum to maximum or from maximum to minimum. Continuously holding down the up or down arrow keys does not cause an automatic repeat of the up (or down) arrow key. Using the Control Panel Start > Settings > Control Panel > Volume & Sounds > Volume Change the volume setting and tap OK to save the change. You can also select / deselect sounds for key clicks and screen taps and whether each is loud or soft. As the volume scrollbar is moved between Loud and Soft, the Thor VM2C emits a tone each time the volume increases or decreases in decibel range. 2-15 Rev. (a) Set Date and Time Zone Tap Start > Settings > Control Panel > Date/Time icon or tap the Date/Time in the taskbar. Set Date, Time, Time Zone, and assign a Daylight Savings location on the Thor VM2C after a warm boot or anytime. There is very little functional change from standard desktop PC Date/Time Properties options. Adjust the settings and tap the OK button or the Apply button to save changes to the registry. Any changes take effect immediately. Double-tapping the time displayed in the Taskbar causes the Date/Time Properties screen to appear. Grab Time Utility The GrabTime utility can be configured to synchronize the time with a local server during each reboot function. Tap the Sync button to synchronize date and time with a networked time server. By default, the Thor VM2C operating system first searches for a time server on the local intranet. If not found, it then searches the Internet for a time server. A connection to the Internet is required for this option. Autolaunch Time-Sync Start > Settings > Control Panel > Options > Communication By default, TimeSync does not automatically run on the Thor VM2C. To enable TimeSync to run automatically on the Thor VM2C using the GrabTime utility, check this checkbox. Synchronize with a Local Time Server By default, GrabTime synchronizes via an Internet connection. To synchronize with a local time server: 1. Use ActiveSync to copy GrabTime.ini from the My Device > Windows folder on the Thor VM2C to the host PC. 2. Edit the copy of GrabTime.ini on the host PC. Add the local time server’s domain name to the beginning of the list of servers. You can optionally delete the remainder of the list. 3. Copy the modified GrabTime.ini file to the My Device > System folder on the Thor VM2C. The System/GrabTime.ini file takes precedence over the Windows/GrabTime.ini file. System/Grabtime.ini also persists after a coldboot; Windows/Grabtime.ini does not persist. 2-16 Rev. (a) Touch Screen Calibrating the Touch Screen If the touch screen is not responding properly to stylus taps, you may need to recalibrate the touch screen. Recalibration involves tapping the center of a target. If you miss the center, keep the stylus on the screen, slide it over the target's center, and then lift the stylus. To recalibrate the screen, select Start > Settings > Control Panel > Stylus > Calibration tab. Follow the instructions on the screen. Tap the OK button when complete, if necessary. Apply the Touch Screen Protective Film The Thor VM2C touch screen protective film is shipped in packs of 10. The protective film is flexible and treated with an antiglare coating on the outer surface. The protective film is slightly larger than the Thor VM2C touch screen, however the notches on the edge of the protective film (indicated by arrows 1 - 4 above) correspond to the display size of the Thor VM2C. The protective film is not adhesive. The corner edges are designed to fit between the Thor VM2C display and the display housing to hold the protective film in place. A protective backing is applied to the rear surface of the protective film. A pull tab (item 5 above) is attached to the protective backing for easy removal of the protective backing from the film. Installation 1. Make sure the touch screen is clean and dry before installation. Please review Cleaning the Display for instructions on suitable cleaning agents. 2-17 Rev. (a) 2. Pull the release tab to separate the protective backing from the rear of the protective film. Avoid touching the rear side of the protective film while removing the liner. 3. Place the rear side of the protective film against the Thor VM2C display, roughly centering the protective film over the display. 4. Slide the protective film until one corner can be slid back between the touch screen and the display housing as the protective film is re-centered on the display. It may be necessary to press the edges of the protective film against the display to ensure the entire edge slides under the display housing. It is easiest to start with one of the bottom corners. 5. Slide the protective film away from the other bottom corner. The film may bulge sligthly away from the User's Guide as it is being slid. Only slide the protective film enough so that the protective film can slide under the display housing on that corner when the protective film is returned to center. 6. Repeat with each of the top corners, sliding the protective film away from the corner just enough that the protective film can slide under the display housing when the protective film is returned to center. 7. It may be necessary to flex the protective film during the install, however use care not to flex the protective film so much that the protective film kinks. 8. Once all corners are secure under the display housing, adjust the protective film, if necessary, so it is centered on the touch screen. Removal 1. To remove the protective film, slide the protective film in one direction until the edge clears. 2. Lift up on the edge of the protective film so it does not slide between the touch screen and display housing when the protective film is slid back to the center. 3.
