Battery Power

The intelligent battery technology built into the terminal features two types of battery power:

The main battery pack installed under the battery door on the back panel.

The backup battery located inside the terminal.

Both batteries work together to prevent data loss when the terminal is used over long periods of time.

Main Battery Pack

!Use only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Honeywell. Use of any battery not sold/manufactured by Honeywell may result in damage not covered by the warranty.

The 7.4V, 14.1 watt hour li-ion battery pack is the primary power source for the Dolphin terminal and the internal backup battery. The li-ion battery is designed to operate in a temperature range of -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F).

Installing the Main Battery Pack

Press Blue + Backlight keys to put the terminal in Suspend Mode (see page 3-15)before installing a new battery.

Mechanical Switch

The battery well area contains a mechanical switch located under the battery door. When the battery door is securely fastened, it presses on the mechanical switch allowing the terminal to power on and operate normally.

When the battery door is removed, it no longer presses on the mechanical switch, which automatically suspends terminal operation. The terminal will not resume normal operations again until the battery door is re-fastened.

Mechanical Switch

The mechanical switch works as described only when the terminal is running on battery power. If the terminal is running on AC power (via Dolphin charging peripheral), the mechanical switch will not suspend the terminal when the battery door is open.

If you open the battery door and remove the battery while the terminal is connected to AC power, the terminal will continue operating. However, if you remove AC power while the battery door is open and the battery is removed, the terminal will shut down without suspending and you will lose RAM data. To avoid data loss when removing AC power, always either suspend the terminal or install the battery prior to removing AC power.
