The bracket contains the turnscrew and two slots. Ball joints are inserted into each slot and secured with the
turnscrew.
Turnscrew
The turnscrew is located on the top of the bracket. Rotate the turnscrew to secure or loosen the ball joint slots.
Mounting Bracket
The mounting bracket is what you attach to the mounting surface. It is comprised of a ball joint and flat disk. The
disk contains drill holes you use to secure the Mobile Base to the mounting surface.
Powering the Dolphin Mobile Base
Note: Hand Held Products recommends that you leave the Mobile Base connected to its power source at all times.
The Mobile Base is powered via the power connector on the bottom panel; see Bottom Panel on page 13-3 . Both the power and
serial connectors are straight out, not at an angle. The Mobile Base must be powered by a 12 to 48 volt DC source.
