CANbus / Audio Connector

The CANbus/Audio connector is a D-15 male connector located on the back of the Quick

Mount Smart Dock.

The connector supports a headset adapter cable or a CANbus cable. The Thor VM2 does not support connecting audio and CANbus simultaneously.

See CANbus / Audio Connector (page 10-6)for connector pinout detail.

A headset cable attaches to the CANbus / Audio connector and provides a quick connect connection for a headset. See Connect Headset Cable (page 4-55)for more information.

The CANbus Y cable has a 9 pin F SAE J1939 (Deutsch) and 9 pin M SAE J1939 (Deutsch) connector. See Connect CANbus Cable (page 4-56)for more information.

The CANbus interface is a virtual COM9 port. This port can be accessed using standard

Windows API calls.

Power Supply Connector

Power is supplied to the Thor VM2 through the power connector. Additionally this assembly provides a connection point for the vehicle’s chassis ground to be connected internally to the conductive chassis of the computer.

The Thor VM2 internal power supply can accept DC input voltages in the range of 10 to 60 Volts DC.

See Power Supply Connector (page 10-4)for connector pinout detail. See Connect Power (page 4- 33) for more information on connecting power to the Thor VM2.
