Charging A Dolphin Terminal
The Mobile Base supplies charging power to the Dolphin terminal so that the terminal can monitor the charging of its battery pack.
This charging method protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging. Therefore, the Dolphin terminal may be stored
indefinitely in the Mobile Base without damage to the terminal, the battery pack, or the Mobile Base.
To charge a Dolphin terminal, follow these steps:
1. Insert a battery pack into the Dolphin terminal.
2. Place the terminal, imager window up and the LCD visible, in the Terminal Well of the Mobile Base.
3. Let it glide down into the well until it stops.
4. Once the Dolphin terminal is properly seated, the Dock LED on the Mobile Base will be solid GREEN.
Setting Up For Communications with the Mobile Base
The Mobile Base RS-232 interface allows the Dolphin terminal to communicate to a personal computer, modem, or any standard
RS-232 device using a standard serial cable and communications software.
