Charging the Main Battery
The Dolphin HomeBase powers the terminal and fully charges its main battery pack in less that four hours. The HomeBase
contains an intelligent battery charging system that protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging; the unit senses
when a battery pack is fully charged and automatically switches to a trickle charge that maintains the battery at full capacity.
Therefore, Dolphin terminals may be stored in the HomeBase without damage to the terminals, battery packs, or peripherals.
To check battery power, use the Power system setting; see Power on page 5-11.
For more information about HHP Li-ion batteries, see Batteries on page 3-10.
To Power a Terminal and Charge its Main Battery
1. Install the battery pack in the terminal; see Install the Main Battery Pack on page 2-6.
1. Connect the HomeBase to the power supply provided by HHP.
2. Slide the terminal into the terminal well until the Dock LED lights green to indicate that the terminal is
properly seated.
3. The battery pack begins charging.
Charging a Spare Battery Using the Auxiliary Battery Well
The auxiliary battery well located on the back of the HomeBase charges a spare battery independently
of the terminal well. The Aux Battery LED on the front panel indicates the status of the battery in this well.
Charge time is less than four hours.
To see this well, see Auxiliary Battery Well on page 10-2.
1. Insert the end of the battery without the locking tab into the bottom of the auxiliary well opening.
2. Snap the battery into place with a hinging motion. The Aux Battery LED lights orange.
3. Use the AUX Battery LED to monitor charging progress.
