Batteries
There are two types of battery power: the main battery pack installed in the back panel and the backup
battery located inside the terminal. They are designed to work together to prevent data loss when the
terminal is in use over long periods.
Both batteries must be completely charged before using a Dolphin terminal for the first time!
Main Battery Pack
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
The 7.4V, 12.0 watt hour Li-ion battery pack is the primary power source for the terminal. The Li-ion
battery is designed to operate in a temperature range of -10
° to 50°C (14° to 122°F).
Charging Options
When the Li-ion battery is installed in the terminal, use one of the following peripherals:
• Dolphin 9700 HomeBase Device (see page 12-1)
• Dolphin 9700 Mobile Base Device (see page 13-1)
• Dolphin 9700 ChargeBase Device (see page 14-1)
• Dolphin 9700 Mobile Charger
When the Li-ion battery is not installed in the terminal:
• Place the battery pack in the Dolphin 9700 QuadCharger device (see page 15-4)
• Place the battery pack in the
Auxiliary Battery Well of the Dolphin 9700 HomeBase device (see page
12-5).
Charging Time
The Li-ion battery pack requires 4 hours to charge completely before initial use.
Storing Batteries
To maintain optimal battery performance, follow these storage guidelines:
• Avoid storing batteries outside the specified range of -4° to 104° F (-20° to 40°C) or in extremely high
humidity.
• For prolonged storage, do not keep batteries stored in a charger that is connected to a power source.
Guidelines for Battery Pack Use and Disposal
The following are general guidelines for the safe use and disposal of batteries:
• We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may pose a
personal hazard to the user.
• Replace defective batteries immediately; using a defective battery could damage the Dolphin terminal.
• Never throw a used battery in the trash. A battery contains heavy metals and should be recycled
according to local guidelines.
• Do not use a battery in any other manner outside its intended use in Dolphin terminals and peripherals.
• Do not short-circuit a battery or throw it into a fire; it can explode and cause severe personal injury.
• Excessive discharge damages a battery. Recharge the battery when your terminal indicates low battery
power.
