The Thor VM2 is designed for use with a vehicle Quick Mount Smart Dock. The dock installs in the vehicle and connects to vehicle power. The dock provides conditioned input power for the Thor VM2. Peripheral connections are on the dock. The Thor VM2 is designed to easily be removed from the dock with a latch on the lower rear of the Thor VM2 housing. Since the dock remains attached to the vehicle, the Thor VM2 computer can easily be moved from one vehicle equipped with a dock to another vehicle equipped with a dock.
The Thor VM2 contains a UPS battery which, when fully charged, can power the Thor VM2 for a minimum of 30 minutes. This can be when the Thor VM2 is not attached to a Quick Mount Smart Dock or when the Thor VM2 is attached to a dock but the vehicle power is interrupted, such as when the vehicle battery is being changed.
