Power

Vehicle DC Power Supply

Vehicle power input for the Thor VM1 dock is 10V to 60V DC and is accepted without the need to perform any manual
operation within the Thor VM1 dock. The dock provides a conditioned power output for the Thor VM1. By using a specified DC-
to-DC adapter, input voltage of 72-144V DC nominal can be accepted.
If 10 to 60V DC power is not available – for example, in an office environment – an optional external Universal Input Power
Supply can be used to convert AC wall power to an appropriate DC level.
Power input is fused for protection and the fuse is externally accessible.

External AC Power Supply

AC to DC power input for the Thor VM1 is delivered to the Quick Mount Smart Dock via an optional external power supply and
adapter cable. One end of the adapter cable attaches to the dock and the other end is a barrel connector for the output cable
from the adapter.
In North America, this unit is intended for use with a UL Listed ITE power supply with output rated 12 – 48 VDC,
minimum 15 W. Outside North America, this unit is intended for use with an IEC certified ITE power supply with
output rated 12 – 48 VDC, minimum 15 W.
The external power supply may be connected to either a 120V, 60Hz supply or, outside North America, to a 230V, 50Hz
supply, using the appropriate detachable cordset. In all cases, connect the external AC supply to a properly grounded source of
supply provided with maximum 15 Amp overcurrent protection (10 Amp for 230V circuits).
Please refer to the wiring instructions, including appropriate cautions and warnings, in the Thor VM1 User Guide.

Uninterruptible Power Supply

The Thor VM1 contains an internal UPS battery.
The UPS battery is automatically charged when the Thor VM1 is placed in a powered dock. A fully discharged UPS battery
recharges in under 4 hours when the Thor VM1 is in a powered dock.
When external power is removed, the UPS automatically powers the Thor VM1 with no user intervention. When running on
UPS power, the power management timeouts may be different than when vehicle power is applied.
The UPS allows the Thor VM1 to continue operation when not mounted in a dock or when the vehicle battery is being swapped.
The UPS battery is designed to power the Thor VM1 for a minimum of 30 minutes at temperatures of -20ºC (-4ºF) or greater.
For the extended temperature version of the Thor VM1, the UPS provides a minimum of 10 minutes of operation below -20ºC (-
4ºF), up to -30ºC (-22ºF).
If operating on UPS power and the UPS battery become critically low, the Thor VM1 performs a controlled shutdown.
If there is no external power available, there must be 10% or greater power in the UPS battery or the Thor VM1 does not power
on.
