Software
Firmware Versions
The Software tab lists the firmware versions installed. The VMT software version and
battery, BIOS, Embedded Controller (EC) and Screen MCU firmware versions are shown
on this tab.
Language
The Software tab displays the localized language version of the OS image. The lan-
guage is identified as English or + an additional language.
The Thor VM3 may be preloaded with an English only OS. Contact
for information on ordering a recovery DVD with an additional language.
Versions
The Versions tab displays the versions of many of the software programs installed. Not
all installed software is included in this list and the list varies depending on the applica-
tions loaded on the Thor VM3. The Image line displays the revision of the system soft-
ware installed. Refer to the last three digits to determine the revision level.
Versions Tab and the Registry
The Versions tab displays program version details from the registry. Customized infor-
mation can be displayed by modifying the Registry using the Registry Editor. Use cau-
tion when editing the Registry and make a backup copy of the registry before changes
are made.
The registry settings for the Version tab are under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \
HSM \ Version in the registry. To add a user application to the Version panel, create a
new string value under the HKLM\Software\HSM\Version key. The string name should
be the Application name to appear in the Version window. The data for the value should
be the version number to appear in the Version window. Version strings can be equal to
or less than 254 characters. Because the strings are displayed in a text box, any number
can be accommodated, up to the 64K byte text box limitation.
