Power Supply
Vehicle power input for the VX7 is 12V to 80V DC nominal and is accepted without the need to perform any manual operation
within the VX7.
If 12V to 60V DC power is not available – for example, in an office environment – an optional external Universal Input Power
Supply can be used to convert AC wall power to an appropriate DC level.
Power input is fused for protection and the fuse is externally accessible.
Uninterruptible Power Supply
A DC uninterruptible power supply (UPS) battery is available to maintain power to the VX7 for a minimum of 15 minutes when
vehicle power is not available (such as when a vehicle battery is being swapped).
Backup Battery
The VX7 has a permanent 190mAh Lithium battery installed to maintain time, date and CMOS setup information. The lithium
battery is not user serviceable and should last five years with normal use before it requires replacement.
Note: The backup battery should only be changed by authorized service personnel.
Audio Interface
Speakers are located on the front on either side of the logo. An audio jack is available for headset operation. When a headset is
plugged into the audio jack on the bottom of the VX7, the main speakers are disabled.
Card Slots
All card slots are located behind the User Access Panel.
Depending on the configuration ordered for the VX7, the following card slots may be present.
PCMCIA Slots
Microsoft Windows CE Plug and Play operating system controls the PCMCIA cards. These cards are hot swappable per the
PCMCIA specifications.
CompactFlash (CF) Slot
If present, the CF ATA slot is not hot swappable. The VX7 must be powered down to insert or remove an ATA card. When the
CF slot is present, the operating system is stored on the CFATA card and the VX7 cannot operate without the ATA card.
Secure Digital (SD) Slot
If a CF ATAcard slot is present, the SD slot accepts an SD memory card. In this case, the SD card is hot swappable.
If a CFATAcard slot is not present, the SD slot is not hot swappable. The operating system is stored on the SD card in this
case and the VX7 cannot operate without this card.
