Communicating with the Dolphin Terminal

To communicate with the Dolphin and any other devices connected to the Compact

HomeBase:

1.

Insert the Dolphin into the terminal well of the HomeBase. If the Dolphin is in

sleep mode, it will awaken into active state.

2.

The CHARGING MAINBATT LED on the HomeBase will turn on. If the

Dolphin does not turn on , or the LED does not light up, make sure that it is

properly seated in the terminal well and that the power supply is properly

connected to the HomeBase and plugged into a functioning AC outlet.

3.

Start your application on the Dolphin terminal or the host computer. Data can

then begin transmitting between the terminal and the devices connected to the

Dolphin HomeBase.

When data transfer begins, the COMM LED on the Dolphin HomeBase will blink red

and green. If the HomeBase will not communicate with the Dolphin, check the port

connections to ensure that the HomeBase is correctly configured. See Chapter 10,

Troubleshooting, for more information.
