File Provisioning on the Dolphin 6110
\IPSM\Honeywell
The IPSM folder is the only partition on the terminal that persists across a kernel upgrade (*.UPG file
extension). During a kernel upgrade, files are automatically copied from the \IPSM\Honeywell folder
and then installed in the \Honeywell (root file system) folder as part of the upgrade process.
\IPSM\Honeywell\AutoInstall
The files in the IPSM\Honeywell\AutoInstall folder are only installed when a factory reset or
kernel upgrade occurs. Once the files are installed, they persist through hard and soft resets. If a file is
added to the folder and a hard or soft reset is performed, it will have no effect. If a program is manually
removed using the Remove Programs application (see page 7-16), then the program is not automatically
re-installed on a hard or soft reset.
\Honeywell
The Honeywell partition or root file system partition is persistent over a hard reset, soft reset, and the
removal of the battery pack or the removal of AC power. However, during a kernel upgrade or factory
reset, the root file system is reformatted so all data in the folder is deleted and replaced by any files in
the \IPSM\Honeywell folder as part of the upgrade process.
To prevent data loss, back up all user data to an SD card or external memory device before performing an
upgrade or factory reset.
\Honeywell\AutoInstall
If you run a CAB file from within the \Honeywell\AutoInstall folder, after the program has been
installed, the CAB file will be deleted. However, the program remains installed through all successive
hard and soft resets.
If you want the program to be part of the Autoinstall that occurs after a factory reset or software upgrade,
paste the program file(s) into the \IPSM\Honeywell\Autoinstall folder.
Contact a Honeywell technical support representative for information on how to perform a factory reset
or for information on available software upgrades for your Dolphin terminal. For contact information, see
Product Service and Repair on page 13-1.
Note:To prevent data loss, back up all user data to an SD card or external memory device before
performing an upgrade.

Turning Power On/Off
To turn the terminal On, press the Power button .
To turn the terminal Off:
1. Press and hold the Power button for approximately 4 seconds until the options menu displays.
2. Tap Power off.
Suspend Mode
Suspend mode differs from Power off mode. Power off mode is the equivalent to having no battery or
external power source connected to the device. In Suspend mode, the device enters a low power state
to conserve battery power.
Suspend mode automatically turns the system off, which includes turning the screen off to save battery
power when the terminal is inactive for a programmed period of time. The automatic timeout limits are
adjustable from the Advance tab located under Settings > System > Power (see page 7-14). In
addition, Suspend mode also automatically turns off the radio and drivers. The PMIC and main
processor wakeup mode clock remain on allowing the system to detect a wakeup interrupt and to
resume working.
Press and release the Power button to toggle the terminal in or out of Suspend mode.
Note: You should always place the terminal in Suspend mode before removing the battery.
Resetting the Terminal
There are three types of system resets: a Soft Reset, a Hard Reset, or a Factory Reset. The soft and
hard resets preserve all data stored in the file system. Contact a Honeywell technical support represen-
tative for more information on how to perform a Factory Reset. For contact information, see Technical
Assistance on page 13-1.
A Soft Reset (Warm Boot) re-boots the device and preserves any objects created in RAM. You would
perform a soft reset when: the terminal fails to respond, after installing some software applications, or
after making changes to certain system settings, such as network cards.
A Hard Reset (Cold Boot) re-boots the terminal and closes any open applications running in RAM at the
time of the reset.
To perform a Soft Reset or Hard Reset:
1. Press and hold the Power button until the options menu appears.
2. Tap Soft Reset or Hard Reset on the menu.
3. When the reset is complete, the Home screen displays.
Note: To perform a Hard Reset if the screen has stopped responding, press and hold the Power button
for
approximately 8 seconds until the terminal starts to re-boot. When the reset is complete, the Home screen
displays.

touch.
Dolphin 6110s ship with a screen protector already installed over the touch screen lens
to help prevent damage to the touch screen. Do NOT remove this screen protector before
initial use. Honeywell recommends using screen protectors, especially for applications
that require high volume interfacing with the touch screen. You can purchase additional
screen protectors by contacting your Honeywell sales representative.
For touch screen input, use the stylus included with the terminal or your finger. The method
you choose depends on which one is most appropriate for your application. While there is a
great deal of variation in different applications, you generally achieve greater accuracy with the
stylus for buttons or icons that are close together.
Use of objects, such as paper clips, pencils, or ink pens on the touch screen can damage
the input panel and may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Using the Touch Panel
Honeywell defines proper use of the terminal touch panel as using a screen protector and proper stylus.
Screen protectors maintain the ongoing integrity (i.e., prevent scratching) of the touch panel, which is
why their use is recommended for applications that require a high-to-medium level of interface with the
touch panel, such as signature capture for proof of delivery.
Honeywell advocates the use of screen protectors on all Dolphin devices. We recommend implementing

a screen protector replacement program to ensure that screen protectors are replaced periodically when
signs of damage/wear are noticeable. Replacement screen protectors can be purchased directly from
Honeywell. Please contact a Honeywell sales associate for details.
Honeywell also mandates use of a proper stylus, which is one that has a stylus tip radius of no less than
0.8 mm. Use of the Honeywell stylus included with the terminal is recommended at all times.
Honeywell warranty policy covers wear on the touch panel for the first twelve (12) months if a screen
protector is applied and an approved stylus is used for the 12 month duration covered by the warranty.
Installing a Screen Protector
Dolphin terminals ship with a screen protector already installed. You will need to replace the screen
protector at regular intervals.
1. After the current screen protector has been removed from the touch panel, clean the touch panel
thoroughly with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. Make sure there is no debris on the touch
panel.
2. Align the exposed section of the protector with the left edge of the touch panel. Make sure that the
screen protector is flush with each side of the touch panel. To reposition, lift up gently and reapply.
3. Press the screen protector firmly and carefully across the surface of the touch panel as you peel
away the backing.
4. If necessary, smooth out any air pockets or bumps.

•Select Image Demo to verify imaging (not available on device using the N4313-TTL laser engine).
Capturing Images (56XX Engine only)
The image-capture process is an intuitive, split-second operation for experienced users. By following
basic guidelines, new users can easily develop their own technique and, with practice, quickly learn to
adapt to different application environments.
Image Preview
When the imaging process is initiated, the touch screen displays a preview of the object. This
is a live video image of what the imager is currently viewing. The live video image has a slightly
degraded appearance compared to the captured image. This is normal.
File Formats
File formats supported for image storage include Bitmap (BMP), JPEG (JPG) and Portable
Network Graphics (PNG). The default file format for images is a grayscale BMP.
Compression
Digital images have a maximum image size of 640 x 480 pixels and may have up to a 256
grayscale image definition. The image quality and related file size are determined by the data
compression method used by the software application used to take images. The average size
of the image file is approximately 4-8K. However, the size of the image depends on the content
of the image - the more complex the content, the larger the file size.
Taking an Image
The following steps are basic guidelines for taking images:
1. Tap > Demos > Imaging Demo .
2. Point the Dolphin terminal at the object.
3. Press the Scan key to activate the engine. The touch screen displays a preview of the object.
4. Adjust the terminal’s position until the preview on the screen is as you want it to appear in the image.
5. Hold the terminal still and release the Scan key.
The touch screen flashes, and the captured image appears on the screen.
6. To save the image, select File > Save. By default, the image is saved to the My Documents folder in
My Device. To save the image to another location, tap File > Save As.

Adding Programs Using ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center
Generally, software for Windows Embedded Handheld devices must be installed to the host workstation
first, then transferred to the Dolphin terminal.
Note: An active Microsoft ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center connection between a host workstation and
the Dolphin terminal is required to add programs. For additional information, see Connecting and
Synchronizing the Terminal and Workstation on page 8-9.
1. Download the program to the workstation from either the Internet or the install CD. You may see a
singe *.exe or setup.exe file, a *.cab file, or a *.dll file.
Note: There may be several versions of files for different device types and processors. Select the file that
matches the terminal’s processor.
2. Read any installation instructions, Read Me files, or documentation that comes with the program.
Many programs provide special installation instructions.
3. Connect the terminal to the workstation via a Dolphin communication peripheral.
If the File is an Installer (*.exe or *.setup.exe)
An installer program is one that installs on the workstation and the terminal simultaneously; one process
installs to both devices.
1. On the workstation, double-click the *.exe or setup.exe file. The installation wizard begins.
2. Follow the directions on the workstation screen. The installation process includes transferring the
software to the Dolphin terminal.
If the File is Not an Installer
Some programs cannot be installed on PCs because they are designed exclusively for Windows Embed-
ded Handheld devices. In these cases, the appropriate files must be stored on the host workstation and
transferred to the terminal via ActiveSync Explore or Windows Device Mobile File Management.
Note: You know that the program is not an installer because an error message stating that the program is valid but
designed for a different type of computer appears when you try to install the program on the workstation.

Dolphin HomeBase (Model 6100-HB)/eBase
(Model 6100-EHB) Device
Overview
Note: The information in this chapter applies to both the Dolphin HomeBase and Dolphin eBase devices unless
otherwise indicated.
As the hub of your Dolphin 6110 system, the Dolphin HomeBase charging and communication cradle
supports full-speed USB 2.0 and RS-232 communication with a workstation. The Dolphin eBase is
identical to the Dolphin HomeBase except it supports Ethernet communication as well as USB 2.0, and
RS-232.
Communication
The base can communicate via USB or serial RS-232 (or Ethernet for the eBase). Data transmission for
USB is up to 480 Mbps. Data transmission for serial RS-232 is up to 115 Kbps.
These bases cannot be physically connected to each other–sometimes referred to as “daisy-chaining”–
but can be networked together via serial or USB hubs.
Battery Charging
The base completes a full charge of a fully depleted battery pack in an average of 7 1/2 hours. It takes
less time if the battery has some charge.
In addition to charging, the base powers the terminal’s intelligent battery charging system, which protects
the battery from being damaged by overcharging. The terminal senses when a battery pack is fully
charged and automatically turns off the charger. If the battery voltage drops below the charge threshold,
the charger turns on again to maintain the battery at full capacity. As a result, Dolphin terminals may be
stored in the base indefinitely without damage to the terminals, battery packs, or peripherals. For
prolonged storage, see Storage Guidelines on page 3-9. The base can also charge a second battery while
the terminal is positioned in the base. See Charging a Spare Battery on page 10-6.
Power Supply
The power cable that ships with each terminal also powers the base.
We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters compiled with L.P.S. Use
of any non-Honeywell peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
Ensure all components are dry prior to mating terminals/batteries with peripheral devices. Mating wet
components may cause damage not covered by the warranty.

compliant device to facilitate USB communication to and from the terminal. USB
communication occurs through Microsoft ActiveSync (v.4.1 or higher). For more information
about ActiveSync setup, see Connecting and Synchronizing the Terminal and Workstation on
page 8-9.
Serial Port
The serial port supports serial communication between the terminal and another device. Note
that the connector is a DB9 Male connector, requiring a female connector on the serial cable.
The following four signals are supported:
• Transmitted Data
• Received Data
• Request to Send
• Clear to Send
Note: ActiveSync is not supported over the serial port.
Ethernet Port (eBase only)
Using an Ethernet cable, you can connect the eBase to an Ethernet-compliant device to facilitate Ethernet
communication to and from the terminal. This equipment is for indoor use only. The communication
wiring is limited to the inside of a building.

Powering the Dolphin HomeBase Device
The terminal requires 5 volts DC input for communication and battery charging; the power adapter on the
power cable converts the voltage from the power source to 5 volts DC. Only power adapter cables from
Honeywell convert the voltage appropriately.
The same power cable that ships with each terminal can be used to power the base. This cable contains
a plug adapter for each geography (US, UK, EU, etc.).
1. Attach the appropriate plug adapter to the power adapter.
2. Plug the power cable into the power source.
3. Plug the connector into the DC power jack on the back panel. The base is now powered.
When a terminal is properly seated, the base powers the terminal, charges the terminal’s battery pack,
and launches ActiveSync (see Connecting and Synchronizing the Terminal and Workstation on page 8-
9).
Honeywell recommends that you leave the base connected to its power source at all times, so that it is
always ready to use.
eBase Clamp-on Ferrite Core Installation
We recommend that you install the clamp-on ferrite core included with your Dolphin® eBase on your
Ethernet cable.
Installation of the ferrite is required to meet the declared FCC emission levels.

The following illustration shows how to install the ferrite on the cable. It should be placed approximately
1.57 inches (40mm) from the RJ45 plug. The cable should be looped around the core, as shown.
Charging the Battery
The base powers the terminal and fully charges its battery
pack in an average of 7 1/2 hours for a fully depleted battery.
It takes less time if the battery has some charge.
As battery packs charge, the charging circuitry follows the two-
step charging process (CC-CV) that is recommended for Li-Ion
batteries. The process monitors changes in temperature,
current, and voltage.
Inserting a Terminal
1. Install the battery pack in the terminal; see Install the Bat-
tery on page 2-1.
2. Power the base; see Powering the Dolphin HomeBase
Device on page 10-4.

Dolphin QuadCharger Device
Overview
The Dolphin QuadCharger device is a four-slot charging station that charges up to four Dolphin 6110 Li-
Ion battery packs in an average of 7 1/2 hours for a fully depleted battery. It takes less time if the battery
has some charge. For more details about charging, see Battery Charging on page 13-2.
We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters compiled with L.P.S. Use
of any non-Honeywell peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the
warranty.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
Ensure all components are dry prior to mating batteries with peripheral devices. Mating wet components may
cause damage not covered by the warranty.
QuadCharger Device
Charging Slots
The charger contains four charging slots. Each slot holds one battery. When a battery is placed
in a slot, it immediately begins charging and its Status LED lights.
Status LEDs
A status LED is located at the end of each of the four battery slots. The color of the LED
indicates the charge status of the battery in the slot.
Green The battery has completed its charge cycle and is ready for use.
Red The battery is charging.

Power Supply Connector
Use this connector to attach the power supply to the charger. The universal power supply accepts input
voltages between 90–265 volts.
Battery Charging
Charging Process
This charger charges Dolphin 6110 Li-Ion battery packs in an average of 7 1/2 hours for a fully depleted
battery. It takes less time if the battery has some charge. Each charging slot works independently of the
other three. As battery packs charge, the charging circuitry follows the two-step charging process (CC-
CV) that is recommended for Li-Ion batteries. The process monitors changes in temperature, current, and
voltage.
Temperature
The six-hour charge time applies when batteries are charged within the recommended temperature range
of 50° to 95° F (10° to 35°C). Temperature has a significant effect on charging. For best results, battery
packs should be at room temperature before inserting in the charger.
When the battery temperature exceeds 40°C, the charger may exceed the stated six-hour charge
time. The charger stops charging if the battery temperature is greater than 40°C, but will begin
charging again when the battery temperature is less than 40°C.
Charging Batteries
1. Supply the charger with power.
2. Insert batteries into the appropriate slots.
The Status LED for each slot turns red to indicate that the battery is properly seated and has begun
a charge cycle.

3. When the Status LED turns green, the battery in the slot has completed charging.
Recommendations for Storing Batteries
To maintain top performance from batteries, follow these storage guidelines:
• Avoid storing batteries outside of the specified temperature range of -4 to 104°F (-20 to 40°C) or in
extremely high humidity.
• For prolonged storage, it is recommended that the battery be at a 40% - 50% charge level, be removed
from the device, and stored in a controlled temperature environment. Following these
recommendations will maximize battery life.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems with the charger, refer to chart below for possible solutions. If problems persist,
contact Product Service and Repair (see page 13-1).
Problem Issue
The Status LED does not come on
