Disconnect
l
Disconnect the cable from the Thor VM1.
l
Open the status bar icon in the lower right hand corner of the status bar. Then tap the Disconnect button.
When the Thor VM1 loses connection, e.g. enters Suspend Mode, etc., the connection to ActiveSync will be lost. When the
Thor VM1 resumes, the ActiveSync session will automatically re-connect.
Thor VM1 with a Disabled Touchscreen
An Thor VM1 touchscreen can be disabled (using the Options control panel Misc tab). In these cases, it may be easier to
configure the Thor VM1 using ActiveSync and LXEConnect rather than using the Thor VM1 keypad only.
Reset and Loss of Host Re-connection
ActiveSync assigns a partnership between a client and a host computer. A partnership is defined by two objects – a unique
computer name and a random number generated when the partnership is first created. An ActiveSync partnership between a
unique client can be established to two hosts.
When the mobile device is reset (return to default settings), the random number is deleted – and the partnership with the last
one of the two hosts is also deleted. The host retains the random numbers and unique names of all devices having a
partnership with it. Two clients cannot have a partnership with the same host if they have the same name. (
Control Panel >
System > Device Name )
If the reset mobile device tries to reestablish the partnership with the same host PC, a new random number is generated for the
mobile device and ActiveSync will insist the unique name of the mobile device be changed. If the mobile device is associated
with a second host, changing the name will destroy that partnership as well. This can cause some confusion when re-
establishing partnerships with hosts.
