Hotkey (Activation hotkey)
The default Hotkey (Activation key) is Ctrl+Spc. The key sequence switches the focus
between one application and another. Data entry affects the application running in the
foreground only. Note that the system administrator may have assigned a different key
sequence to use when switching applications.
Note: You must use an external keyboard with the 12-key version of the Thor VM2 to use the
Hotkey. If an external keyboard is not attached, use the Switchpad to switch between
applications.
Application Configuration
Settings > Control Panel > Administration
The default Administrator Hotkey sequence is Shift+Ctrl+A.
Administrator mode allows access to all features on the device. When the hotkey is
pressed to switch into Administrator mode, a password prompt is displayed (if a pass-
word has been configured). A password must be entered within 30 seconds (and within
three tries) or the password prompt is removed and the device remains in end-user
mode with the focus returned to the locked application. Without entry of a valid pass-
word, the switch into Administrator mode will not occur.
The password prompt is displayed if a password has been configured. When the valid
password is entered, the Administration Control panel is displayed. When a valid pass-
word is not entered within 30 seconds, the user is returned to the System Control Panel.
If a password has not been configured, the Administrator Control panel is displayed.
Application
Use the Application tab options to select the applications to launch when the device
boots up in End-user Mode.
