Charging the Main Battery
The mobile base provides power to the Dolphin and allows charging of the main batteries in the terminal.
The main battery charges in 4 hours for the standard battery or 6 hours for the extended battery. The
intelligent battery charging system incorporated into all Dolphin terminals prevents overcharging, which
means that terminal may be seated in the base indefinitely without damage to the terminal, battery pack,
or the base.
For more information about Honeywell battery packs and how to check battery power levels in your ter-
minal, refer to Checking Battery Power (page 3-12) and Batteries (page 3-11).
To Power a Terminal and Charge its Main Battery
Ensure all components are dry prior to mating terminals/batteries with peripheral devices. Mating wet compo-
nents 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 dam-
age not covered by the warranty.
1. Install the main battery pack in the terminal; see Install the Main Battery Pack on page 2-1.
2. Plug the power adapter into the vehicle power outlet (e.g., cigarette lighter outlet).
3. Lift the base locking latch up.
4. Slide the Dolphin into the terminal well and lower the locking latch. Charging begins immediately if
required by the Dolphin terminal.
