Using the Mobile Charger
The Mobile Charger connects the terminal to a vehicle power source. This cable powers the terminal and
charges the main battery pack.
Terminal Connector
The terminal connector connects the communication cable to
the I/O connector (see I/O Connector on page 3-9) on the
terminal.
The pins in this connector work only with the I/O connector on
the terminal.
Jackscrews
The jackscrews secure the terminal connector to the I/O
connector on the terminal.
Once the terminal connector is plugged into the I/O connector
on the bottom panel of the terminal, turn both jackscrews to the
right to secure the connection.
Vehicle Power Adapter
The vehicle power adapter plugs into a standard vehicle power
source and converts voltage to the 9.5 volts DC required by the
terminal.
Using the Mobile Charger Inside a Vehicle
Using the Mobile Charger in combination with the Mobile Mount powers and secures the terminal inside
a vehicle.
1. Insert the terminal into the Mobile Mount.
2. Install the Mobile Mount inside the vehicle.
3. Plug the Terminal Connector (see page 12-3) of the Mobile Charger into the I/O connector on the
bottom panel of the terminal.
4. Tighten the Jackscrews (see page 12-3).
5. Plug the Vehicle Power Adapter (see page 12-3) into the vehicle power outlet.
Note: Dolphin terminals contain an intelligent battery charging system that monitors the charging of the battery pack
to protect the battery from damage by overcharging if left connected to a charging peripheral indefinitely.
