Using the Touch Panel
Honeywell defines proper use of the terminal touch panel as using a screen protector and proper stylus.
Screen protectors maintain the ongoing integrity (i.e., prevent scratching) of the touch panel, which is
why their use is recommended for applications that require a high to medium level of interface with the
touch panel, such as signature capture for proof of delivery.
Honeywell advocates the use of screen protectors on all Dolphin devices. We recommend implementing
a screen protector replacement program to ensure that screen protectors are replaced periodically when
signs of damage/wear are noticeable. Replacement screen protectors can be purchased directly from
Honeywell. Please contact a Honeywell sales associate for details.
Honeywell also mandates use of a proper stylus, which is one that has a stylus tip radius of no less than
0.8 mm. Use of the Honeywell stylus included with the terminal is recommended at all times.
Honeywell warranty policy covers wear on the touch panel for the first twelve (12) months if a screen pro-
tector is applied and an approved stylus is used for the 12 month duration covered by the warranty.
Installing a Screen Protector
Dolphin terminals ship with a screen protector already installed. You will need to replace the screen pro-
tector at regular intervals.
1. After the current screen protector has been removed from the touch panel, clean the touch panel
thoroughly with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. Make sure there is no debris on the touch
panel.
2. Align the exposed section of the protector with the bottom edge of the touch panel. Make sure that
the screen protector is flush with each side of the touch panel. To reposition, lift up gently and
reapply.
3. Press the screen protector firmly and carefully across the surface of the touch panel as you peel
away the backing.
4. If necessary, smooth out any air pockets or bumps.
Batteries
There are three types of battery power: the main battery pack installed in the back panel, the backup
battery located inside the terminal and the Real Time Clock (RTC) battery located inside the terminal.
They are designed to work together to prevent data loss when the terminal is in use over long periods.
All batteries must be completely charged before using a Dolphin terminal for the first time!
Note: The RTC battery will preserve the Real Time Clock 60 days after the main battery and internal backup battery
are fully depleted.
Main Battery Pack
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-poly or Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result
in damage not covered by the warranty.
Dolphin 99EX model terminals intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres are designed for
use only with standard battery pack model 99EX-BTSC (Li-poly 3.7V, 11.3 watt hour) or extended bat-
tery pack model 99EX-BTEC (Li-ion 3.7V, 18.5 watt hour) manufactured for Honeywell International Inc.
