•The Kernel version must be 26.01 or later in terminals running Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 Classic.

•In terminals running Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 Professional, the kernel version must be 25.01 or later.

Applications on the Dolphin Terminal

Applications running on the Dolphin terminal when it is connected to the eBase should be designed specifically for a partially connected network. For more details, please refer to the Best Practices for Partially Connected Networks document available at www.honeywellaidc.com.

Establishing Ethernet Communication

Connecting the Dolphin Terminal to the eBase

By default, the Dolphin terminal is configured to obtain IP addresses automatically via DHCP server. This means that in most cases you would simply plug-and-play the unit.

1.Verify the base has power. If the Power/Dock LED is not illuminated, see Connecting Power to the eBase on page 13-5.

2.Plug the CAT-5 Ethernet cable into the RJ45 connector on the back of the eBase.

3.Plug the Ethernet cable into the network.

4.Insert the Dolphin into the terminal well. The DOCK LED for the well changes from red to green and the connection icon on the Dolphin’s title bar changes from x to .

Note: Instead of using the default for DHCP assigned IP addresses, the Dolphin terminal can use a statically assigned IP address. See standard Microsoft Windows Mobile documentation for how to assign a static IP address to a network adapter. In this case, set a static IP address for the adapter named "SMC95001 USB2.0 FAST Ethernet Drive".

Displaying the eBase and Terminal IP Address

Once the Dolphin terminal has been successfully connected to the eBase, the terminal uses the eBase IP address. This IP address can be used by any application on the Dolphin terminal.

1.Tap > Power Tools > Network Utilities > IPConfig.

2.Change the Adapter to SMC95001.

3.On the Input tab, tap the Display full configuration button.

4.The Dolphin terminal retrieves and displays the IP configuration for the entire terminal and eBase. Locate the IpAddress field in the IP configuration list.

Establishing USB Communication

Dolphin terminal’s support USB communication out of the box. The eBase also supports USB communications using the USB port located on the back panel of the eBase. The eBase acts as a USB device by interfacing the USB signals of the Dolphin terminal to the USB of the host workstation. Using a standard USB cable, the ebase’s USB interface allows the Dolphin terminal to communicate with a host worksta- tion.
