Dolphin 99EX eBase Device (Model 99EX-EHB)

Overview

The Ethernet Base (eBase) enables a single Dolphin 99EX computer to communicate with a host device over an Ethernet network.

The 99EX-EHB charger is designed for use with battery pack models 99EX-BTSC (standard Li-poly 3.7 V, 11.3 watt hour) and 99EX-BTEC (extended Li-ion 3.7 V, 18.5 watt hour) manufactured for Honeywell International Inc. and with all Dolphin 99EX model terminals.

Note: Dolphin 99EX models intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres are only approved to use battery pack model 99EX-BTEC (PN 99EX-BTEC-2) or 99EX-BTSC (PN 99EX-BTSC-2). See Equipment Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres, starting on page 2-1for additional information.

Warning! The eBase is not designed for use in hazardous locations.

We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of any non-Honeywell peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.

Unpacking the eBase

Open the shipping box and inspect the package to see that the following standard items are included:

•One Dolphin eBase Ethernet cradle, model 99EX-EHB•One power supply (see Power on page 13-5)

•One power cord

You will also need to provide a standard CAT-5 Ethernet network cable. These items are needed to set up and operate the eBase. If any items are missing or anything appears to be damaged, contact your Customer Account Representative.

Keep the original packaging in case you need to return the eBase for service or to store the eBase while not in use.

Charge Time

The base completes a full charge of the main battery pack installed in the terminal seated in the terminal well in 4 hours for the standard 3.7V battery or 6 hours for the extended 3.7V battery. The base completes a full charge of the battery pack in the Auxiliary Battery Well (see page 13-2)in 4 hours for the standard 3.7V battery or 6 hours for the extended 3.7V battery.

!Before you attempt to use, charge, or change the battery in the terminal carefully read all the information under Equipment Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres, starting on page 2-1and the Guidelines for Battery Pack Use and Disposal on page 3-13.

Convenient Storage

The intelligent battery charging system makes this base a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your Dolphin terminal.

Capacity

The base holds one terminal and features an auxiliary battery well behind the terminal well that can charge a battery pack independently of the terminal well. This means that one base can charge two battery packs: the one installed in the terminal and a spare.
