Powering the Dolphin Terminal

When seated in the HomeBase, the Dolphin terminal receives the power it needs to

charge the battery and to run its internal circuitry.

The Dolphin terminal can be stored indefinitely in the HomeBase without damage to

the terminal or the HomeBase. Keep the HomeBase plugged in so that the Dolphin

terminal’s battery pack stays fully charged.

Charging A Dolphin Terminal

The HomeBase 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 HomeBase without damage to the terminal, the battery pack, or the

HomeBase.

To charge a Dolphin terminal, follow these steps:

1.

Insert a battery pack into the Dolphin terminal.

2.

Place the terminal, laser engine window up and the LCD visible, in the Dolphin

Terminal Well of the Dolphin HomeBase.

3.

Let it glide down into the well until it stops.
