Dock - Honeywell Thor vm3 User Manual

Dock

The Thor VM3 assembly consists of two parts, the Thor VM3 computer and the dock. The Thor VM3 contains an internal UPS
battery that, once fully charged, powers the Thor VM3 for a minimum of 30 minutes when the unit is not mounted in the dock.
All docks provide:
• A mount for the Thor VM3 computer. The dock attaches to a vehicle via a RAM or U-bracket mount or to a RAM table stand
for use in an office environment.
• Conditioned power for the Thor VM3. The dock accepts 10-60VDC power input directly or 50-150VDC power input with a DC/
DC converter.
• Mobility of the Thor VM3, since the dock remains attached to the vehicle the Thor VM3 computer can easily be moved from
one vehicle equipped with a dock to another.
• Several I/O ports as described in the table below.
• Strain relief provisions for cables.
• Headset connection via an adapter cable. When a headset is not attached, the microphone and speakers on the Thor VM3
are active.
There are three type of docks available for the Thor VM3. Features of the docks are described below:
