Standby/Sleep Mode; Hibernate Mode; Off Mode - Honeywell Thor VM2 User Manual

When in Full On mode, the status LED is solid green.
If the Thor VM2 is Full On, a press of the power button can be configured to put the unit in Standby. See the
(page 5-32) tab of the Power control panel or
operating system installed.

Standby/Sleep Mode

This mode is called Standby in Windows Embedded Standard 2009. This mode is called Sleep in Windows Embedded
Standard 7 and Windows 7 Professional.
When the standby/sleep timer expires without a primary event occurring, the Thor VM2 transitions to Standby/Sleep
mode. Pressing the Power button exits Standby/Sleep mode and transitions the Thor VM2 to Full On.
When in Standby/Sleep mode, the status LED:
• blinks green very slowly if external power is attached.
• is off if external power is not attached.
By default, power is turned off to the USB port when the Thor VM2 is in Standby/Sleep mode.
The Thor VM2 can be configured to provide power to the USB port in Standby/Sleep using the
control panel.
Note: Because the Thor VM2 with Windows Embedded Standard 7 or Windows 7 Professional cannot transition from
Sleep to Hibernate due to an operating system limitation, Sleep is disabled by default in the predefined power
plans. Power savings are significantly greater using Hibernate.
