Honeywell Thor VM1A

Android Vehicle Mount Mobile Computer


Built with many of the same easy-to-use, easy-to-maintain features of the popular Thor VM1 and CV41 models, the rugged, Android™-based Thor VM1A also offers all the advantages of Honeywell’s Mobility Edge™ platform – including the ability to accelerate provisioning, application certification, and deployment across the enterprise.

The Thor VM1A is upgradable from Android O to Android R, with extended security update support via Honeywell Sentinel to extend product lifecycle and maximize return on investment. The device’s advanced enterprise configuration and software support tools also simplify frequently repeated tasks such as unit setup and distribution of security and software updates.

Built tough for challenging forklift environments, the Thor VM1A includes a powerful Qualcomm® 660 processor, 2x2 MIMO WLAN connectivity, integrated keyboard, and large 8-inch touchscreen readable both indoors and out, keeping critical data accessible right from the forklift driver’s seat. An optional screen defroster is available for use in cold storage and freezer environments.

The Smart Dock feature enables users to quickly shift computers between vehicles, while the ignition control feature offers adjustable power management settings to save startup time and extend vehicle battery life, maximizing efficiencies and uptime.  The field-replaceable front panel allows enterprises to minimize investments in spare parts by substituting low-cost spare front panels for complete spare computers.


Honeywell Android Ecosystem

When considering a Honeywell mobile computer or printer, there are corresponding Honeywell software products that should be considered as they can be extremely beneficial to your warehouse operation.  These products are designed to save employee time and help to manage your Honeywell Android devices. From staging software (one-scan to configure), to mobile device management software, to Push-To-Talk, some or all of them may be a great fit for your organization.

Operational Intelligence (MDM)

Most of our customers purchase a Mobile Device Management software (MDM) when they purchase Honeywell Android Computers. Operational Intelligence is Honeywell’s light version of a MDM software. Among its many features, Operational Intelligence allows remote control of a device, battery analytics, and the ability to push security updates and file updates. Learn more about Honeywell’s Operational Intelligence.

SOTI MobiControl (MDM)

An alternative to Honeywell’s Operational Intelligence is SOTI’s MobiControl, another mobile device management (MDM) software. SOTI has the same capabilities as Honeywell’s Operational Intelligence but it is the leading industry MDM software. In addition, SOTI is also compatible with over 200 manufacturers, including Android, Apple, and Windows. Learn more about SOTI Mobile Device Management.

Push-To-Talk

Honeywell’s in-house application called Smart Talk enables Push-To-Talk communication and more between compatible devices over WiFi and cellular networks. Voice call, text, video call or chat ‒ it’s all on the mobile device with Smart Talk. Learn more about Smart Talk.
