Dolphin 9700 Mobile Base Device (Model 9700-MB)
Overview
This charging and communication cradle is designed specifically for in-premise and in-transit data
collection applications. It features a flexible mounting bracket, a cigarette lighter adapter, and a power
cable to adapt it to your environment. The 9700-MB model is designed for use with Dolphin 9700 models
using battery pack model 200003231 (Li-poly 7.4 V, 12.0 watt hour) or 9700-BTEC (Li-ion 7.2 V, 14.4 watt
hour) manufactured for Honeywell International Inc.
The serial connector supports RS232 communication and power out to peripheral devices, such as
handheld scanners.
As the hub of your Dolphin mobile data collection system, the base performs three important functions:
charging, communications, and storage.
Charging
The base completes a full charge of the main battery pack in 4 hours. The base also provides power to
the intelligent battery charging system in all terminals that senses when a full charge has been achieved
and switches to a trickle charge to maintain the full charge.
Communications
The base transmits data to other devices at speeds of up to 115K baud via its RS232 serial port.
Convenient Storage
Intelligent battery charging makes the base a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your Dolphin
terminal.
