Dolphin 99EX HomeBase Device (Model 99EX-HB)
Overview
As the hub of your Dolphin system, the Dolphin 99EX HomeBase (99EX-HB) charging and communica-
tion cradle supports both RS232 and USB communications, which make it able to interface with the
majority of PC-based enterprise systems.
The 99EX-HB charger is designed for use with battery pack models 99EX-BTSC (standard Li-poly 3.7 V,
11.3 watt hour) and 99EX-BTEC (extended Li-ion 3.7 V, 18.5 watt hour) manufactured for Honeywell
International Inc. and with all Dolphin 99EX model terminals.
Note: Dolphin 99EX models intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres are only approved to use battery
pack model 99EX-BTEC (PN 99EX-BTEC-2) or 99EX-BTSC (PN 99EX-BTSC-2). See Equipment Intended
for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres, starting on page 2-1 for additional information.
Warning! The HomeBase is not designed for use in hazardous locations.
We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of any non-Honeywell
peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Unpacking the HomeBase
Open the shipping box and inspect the package to see that the following standard items are included:
• One Dolphin HomeBase, model 99EX-HB
• One UL Listed power supply rated a 12VDC, 3A (see Power on page 12-5)
• One power cord
These items are needed to operate the HomeBase. If any items are missing or anything appears to be
damaged, contact your Customer Account Representative. Keep the original packaging in case you
need to return the HomeBase for service or to store the HomeBase while not in use.
Optional Equipment
A standard RS232 or a standard USB cable is required when using the HomeBase for communication
between the terminal and a host device.
Charge Time
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. The base completes a full
charge of the battery pack in the Auxiliary Battery Well (see page 12-3) in 4 hours for the standard bat-
tery or 6 hours for the extended battery.
Charging Process
The base also provides power to the intelligent battery charging system in all Dolphin terminals that
senses when a full charge has been achieved and switches to a trickle charge to maintain the full
charge.
Before you attempt to use, charge, or change the battery in the terminal carefully read all the information under
Equipment Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres, starting on page 2-1 and the Guidelines
for Battery Pack Use and Disposal on page 3-13.
