Settings
After-run time
and
Timeout
to terminate programs
on shutdown
If you do not want the computer to shut down immediately
after switching it off using the ignition or power key, but rather
it should remain on for a time, then enter an after-run time (in
seconds) here.
Shutdown times
The length of time until shutdown consists of two counters:
1. After-run time
The after-run time begins with the switching off of the ignition.
The shutdown counter is displayed on the monitor (according
to the settings). In this countdown the after-run time is
counted downwards. If the after-run time has elapsed, a
message for the shutdown will be displayed in the Shutdown
dialog.
During this time, the computer can be returned to normal
operating status with the ignition.
2. Timeout to terminate programs
Next, all applications are informed that Windows will
shutdown.
After this, the timeout begins counting down – but a counter
is no longer displayed in the Shutdown dialog.
When the timeout elapses, there will be a 'hard' switch-off of
all applications that were still running. Then the system
shutdown is started.
Switch-off time In order to allow enough time for the system shutdown after
the program timeout, set the switch-off time to at least 20 s
plus the program timeout. Settings lower than this value will
cause a warning to appear when data is being saved.
Block input if ignition
is off
If the ignition of the connected vehicle is off, all input to the
computer may be blocked.
