Honeywell Thor VM1 Laptop User Manual


 
Adapter Cables
This section assumes the VX6/VX7 or Thor VX8/VX9 power cable is
properly connected to vehicle power. Refer to the appropriate Vehi-
cle Mounting Reference Guide for details.
Note: For high voltage forklifts (over 60V), refer to the “DC/DC
Power Supply Installation Instructions,” available at
www.honeywellaidc.com.
VX6/VX7 Adapter Cable
This adapter cable is available to attach the Thor VM1 to a vehi-
cle previously equipped with a VX6/VX7 DC power cable.
When this adapter cable is used, there is no provision for an
ignition switch input. Therefore the vehicle ignition monitoring
function is not available when using this cable.
1. The Thor VM1 must not be mounted in the Quick Mount
Smart Dock. The power switch on the dock must be turned
Off. The power cable must be UNPLUGGED from the
dock.
2. Connect the cable to the Thor VM1 power cable by aligning
the connector pins to the power connector; push down on
the watertight connector and twist it to fasten securely.
3. The cable is rated for a maximum temperature of 221°F
(105°C). The cable should be protected from surfaces that
exceed this temperature, from physical damage from mov-
ing parts, and from chemicals or oil that cause the insula-
tion to deteriorate. Route the cable so that it does not
interfere with safe operation and maintenance of the vehi-
cle.
CAUTION - Because the Thor supports 10-60 VDC
power input, verify input voltages before using this
adapter cable with an existing VX6 or VX7 power con-
nection installation.
