Main Battery Pack

!

Caution:We recommend use of Honeywell

Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result

in damage not covered by the warranty.

 

There are two Li-ion battery packs available for the 6100:

Standard Capacity: Li-ion 3.7V/2200mAh/8.1Wh

Extended Capacity: Li-ion 3.7V/3300mAh/12.2Wh

The Li-Ion battery pack is the primary power source for the Dolphin terminal as well as the internal backup battery.

Changing the Main Battery Pack

Before installing a battery pack, press the Power button on the 28-key Dolphin 6100 to put the terminal into Suspend Mode (see page 3-16)so that operations are suspended before removing the main power source. The Dolphin 6100 is shipped with the battery separate from the unit. You will need to loosen the hand strap, remove the battery door, insert the battery, and replace the battery door. Refer to the instructions included in Installing the Main Battery section (page 2-1).

Note: The battery door must be installed prior to booting the unit.

Charging Options

When the battery is installed in the terminal, you can use any of the peripherals listed below to charge the battery.

•Dolphin HomeBase/eBase Device (see page 10-1)

•Dolphin Comm/Charge Cable; Managing Main Battery Power (see page 3-14). You may charge the device using the USB connection if you do not have a wall adapter. There are two options that allow

either 100mA or 500mA of current over the USB connection. Access the option by selecting > Settings > System > Power > USB Charging (see see Charging Terminal with USB Cable on page 8-1).

To fully charge the Li-Ion battery before installing it in the terminal, use the

•Dolphin QuadCharger Device (see page 11-1)or insert the battery in the spare battery charging well in the back of either the Dolphin HomeBase or Dolphin eBase.

Charging Time

The standard capacity 2200mAh Li-ion battery pack requires four hours to charge to full capacity, while the extended capacity 3300mAh pack requires six hours. It takes less time if the battery has some charge.
