Step 3. Charge the Main and Backup Batteries

The power supply for the Dolphin mobile computer consists of two types of battery power: the main battery pack installed on the
back panel and the backup battery that resides inside the terminal.

The main battery powers the terminal. The internal backup battery charges off the main battery and maintains the application
data stored in RAM and system clock for up to 30 minutes when the terminal’s main battery pack is completely discharged or
removed.

Before Initial Use

The terminals are shipped with both batteries discharged of all power. Charge the main battery pack
for a minimum of four hours before initial use.

Time to Charge

Four hours for the main battery pack, eight hours for the internal backup battery the first time.

Use only Dolphin 9500 Series peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of peripherals, cables, or power
adapters not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products will void the warranty and may damage the terminal.

Charging with Dolphin Peripherals

When the battery is installed in the terminal, you can insert the terminal into any one of the following peripherals to charge the
main battery pack:
