Powering the Dolphin Terminal
When seated in a Mobile Base that is connected to the appropriate power source, the Dolphin terminal receives the power to
charge its main battery and run its internal circuitry. Keep the Mobile Base plugged into the power source so that the Dolphin
terminal battery pack stays fully charged.
For more information about powering the Mobile Base, see Powering the Dolphin Mobile Base on page 11-6.
Charging the Dolphin Terminal
The Mobile Base supplies charging power to the Dolphin terminal so that the terminal can monitor the charging of its battery pack.
This charging method protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging. Therefore, the Dolphin terminal may be stored
indefinitely in the Mobile Base without damage to the terminal, the battery pack, or the Mobile Base.
To charge a Dolphin terminal, complete these steps:
1. Insert a battery pack into the Dolphin terminal.
2. Slide the terminal, imager window up and the LCD visible, into the terminal well of the Mobile Base until it stops.
3. When the Dolphin terminal is properly seated, the DOCK LED on the Mobile Base illuminates solid green. The terminal
begins charging automatically.
