COMM LED

The COMM LED indicates the status of connection and data transfer between the Dolphin terminal and the Net Base. Each terminal well has its own dedicated COMM LED.

When the Dolphin terminal is docked:

Data transfer in progress.

Note: The COMM LED does not necessarily indicate the Net Base and terminal are connected to a valid Ethernet link. For more information, see RJ45 Ethernet Ports on page 16-3.

DC Power Jack

Use the power cable from Honeywell that comes with the Net Base to supply power to this power jack. For more information, see Power on page 16-4.

RJ45 Ethernet Ports

The Net Base contains two RJ45 Ethernet ports. You can connect the Net Base to an Ethernet- compliant device to facilitate Ethernet communication to and from the terminal by plugging a standard CAT-5 Ethernet cable into one of the two Ethernet ports provided. The second RJ45 Ethernet port can be used for connection to an additional device such as a printer, workstation, eBase, or another Net Base.

Note: The Net Base does not use a Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). When both RJ45 Ethernet ports are used, do not connect both Net Base interfaces to the same layer 2 LAN.

Note: Ethernet Port 2 only supports 100Mbps Ethernet connections. Plugging in a 10Mbps connection into Port 2 may cause other ports to stop working. For 10Mbps connections use Ethernet Port 1.
