Charging the Main Battery
The base provides power to the Dolphin terminal and allows the charg-
ing of the terminal’s main battery. The intelligent battery charging sys-
tem incorporated into all Dolphin terminals prevents overcharging, which
means that Dolphin terminals may be stored in the base indefinitely
without damage to the terminals, battery packs, or the base. The base
completes a full charge of the main battery pack installed in the terminal
seated in the terminal well in 4 hours for the standard battery or 6 hours
for the extended battery.
For more information about Honeywell battery packs and how to check
battery power levels in your terminal, refer to Checking Battery Power
(page 3-12) and Batteries (page 3-11).
To Power a Terminal and Charge its Main Battery
1. Install the battery pack in the terminal; see Install the Main Battery
Pack on page 2-1.
2. Verify the base has power. If the Power/Dock LED is not
illuminated, see Connecting Power to the HomeBase on page 11-4.
3. Slide the terminal into the terminal well. The Power/Dock LED
changes to green. The charging begins immediately if required by
the Dolphin terminal.
Ensure all components are dry prior to mating terminals/batteries with peripheral devices. Mating wet
components may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
Charging a Spare Battery in the Auxiliary Battery Well
The auxiliary battery well located on the back of the base charges a spare battery independently of the
terminal well. The Aux Battery LED on the front panel indicates the status of the battery in this well.
Charge time is 4 hours for the standard battery pack or 6 hours for the extended battery pack; see
Auxiliary Battery Well on page 11-3.
1. Insert the battery at an angle.
Note: Align the battery contacts with the contacts inside
the auxiliary battery well.
2. Snap the battery into place with a hinging motion.
The Aux Battery LED lights orange.
3. Use the AUX Battery LED to monitor the charging
progress. The LED lights green when the auxiliary
battery has completed charging and is ready for
use.
Note: If the AUX Battery LED flashes red, the internal
temperature of the battery is too hot or there is a
battery error. Charge the auxiliary battery in a
cooler environment or replace the battery with a new Honeywell Li-ion battery.
