Dolphin ® eBase Communication Cradle for the Dolphin ® 9700 Mobile Computer User’s Guide.
.
1 Introduction The Ethernet Base (eBase) enables a single Dolphin 9700 computer to communicate with a host device over an Ethernet network. We recommend use of Hone ywell peripherals, pow er cables , and power adapters. Use of an y non-Honeywell peripherals, cables , or power adapters ma y cause damage not cov ered by the warr anty .
2 Software Requirements Before you connect the Dolphin terminal to the eBase, make sure you have the most current software installed. To check the terminal’s system information, tap Start > Power Tools > SysInfo . • The Kernel version must be 20.
3 Hard ware Over view Front P anel Terminal Well Place the terminal in this well to communicate with a host device, power the terminal, and charge the installed battery pack. The eBase completely charges the main battery in a Dolphin terminal in 4 hours.
4 AUX Battery LED The AUX Battery LED indica tes the status of the battery charging in the auxiliary battery well; see Back Panel on page 6. COMM LED The COMM LED indicates the status of data transfer between the Dolphin terminal and the eBase. This color means… Orange The auxiliar y battery is charging.
5 When the Dolphin terminal is docked: This color and status means… Red Solid No connection is established betw een the eBase and terminal. Orange Solid RASMan is attempting to establishing a connection between the eBase and the terminal. Green Solid RASMan has established a connection between the ebase and the terminal.
6 Back P anel Auxiliary Battery Well The eBase enables you to charge an additional Li-ion battery pack independently of the terminal well in 4 hours. This feature ensures that you can always have a fully charged battery for your terminal.
7 USB Port This USB Port is full-speed and 2.0 compliant. Using a USB cable, you can connect the eBase to a USB compliant device to facilit ate USB communication to and from the terminal.
8 Bottom P anel For details on how to mount the eBase, see Mounting on page 25. Reset Button Compliance Label Serial Number Label.
9 Po w e r The terminal requires 9.5 Volts DC input for communications and battery charging; the power adapter on the power cable converts the voltage from the power source to 9.5 volts DC. Only the Honeywell 9.5 VDC, 4A power supply provided with the ebase converts the voltage appropriately.
10 Charging the Main Battery in the Te r m i n a l We recommend use of Hone yw ell Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Hone ywell batt ery may result in damage not cov ered by the warranty . The eBase provides power to the Dolphin terminal and allows the charging of the terminal’s main battery.
