Communicating with the Dolphin Terminal

To communicate with the Dolphin and any other devices connected to the Dolphin Charging/Communication cradle:

1. Insert the Dolphin into the terminal well of the IntelliBase/USB HomeBase. If the Dolphin is in sleep mode, it will awaken into

active state.

2. The DOCK LED on the cradle will illuminate. 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 cradle 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 cradle.

When data transfer begins, the COMM LED on the cradle will blink red and green. If the IntelliBase/HomeBase will not
communicate with the Dolphin, check the port connections to ensure that the cradle is correctly configured.
