Communication Options

Dolphin terminals offer several communication options including Microsoft ActiveSync, infrared, and wireless radios.

I/O Connector (Wired Communication)

The mechanical connector on the bottom panel (see I/O Connector on page 3-14)connects the terminal to various Dolphin communication peripherals that connect to a host workstation via USB (1.1 or higher), thus enabling ActiveSync communication.

For more information, see ActiveSync Communication on page 6-3.

Wireless Radios (Wireless Communication)

Dolphin 7600 terminals can be equipped with an 802.11b/g or Bluetooth radio or a combination of these radios.

For more information, see Wireless Radios on page 6-6.

IrDA Port (Wireless Communication)

The IrDA port enables the Dolphin to transmit data via pulses of infrared light to and from other IrDA-compliant devices, such as printers, workstations, and even other Dolphin terminals.

For more information, see Infrared Communication on page 6-8.

Installing Additional Software

Dolphin terminals ship with the operating system, radio drivers, and custom Hand Held Products software loaded onto the device. These are the default programs that install when your terminal first boots up. You can install additional software programs to the terminal provided that the following parameters are met:

the software program was created for a Windows CE device.

The terminal has enough memory to store and run the program.

The program has an *.exe, *.cab, or *.dll extension.

When selecting programs, verify that the program and version of the program are designed for the Windows CE 5.0 and the terminal’s processor. You can verify your processor by tapping Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > General tab. Make a note of the information in the Processor field.

To install additional software, you can use the communication options described in this chapter.
