Powering the HomeBase Device

The terminal requires 9.5 volts DC input for communication and battery charging; the power adapter on the power cable converts the voltage from the power source to 9.5 volts DC. Only power adapter cables from Honeywell convert the voltage appropriately.

Plug this connector into the DC Power Jack on the back panel.

Power Adapter

1.Plug the power cable into the power adapter.

2.Plug the power cable into the power source.

3.Plug the connector cable into the DC power jack on the back panel. The HomeBase device is now powered.

When a terminal is properly seated in the terminal well, the HomeBase device powers the terminal, charges the terminal’s main battery pack, and launches ActiveSync communication (see ActiveSync Communication on page 9-8).

Honeywell recommends that you leave the HomeBase device connected to its power source at all times, so that it is always ready to use.
