For more information, see Battery Power on page 3-11.
Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide -Second Draft PreliminaryRev (a) 3 - 11Battery PowerThe Dolphin 7600 features intelligent battery technology with two types of battery power: • The main battery pack on the back panel (see Installed Battery on page 3-4)• The backup battery located inside the terminalBoth batteries work together to prevent data loss when the terminal is used over long periods of time. Both batteries must be charged to full capacity before using the Dolphin 7600 for the first time! Initial charge time for the main battery pack is four hours. Initial charge time for the internal backup battery is eight hours.Main Battery PackUse only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Hand Held Products. The use of any battery pack not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products in a Dolphin terminal will void your warranty and may result in damage to the Dolphin terminal or battery.There are two Li-ion battery packs available for the Dolphin 7600:Standard Li-ion 3.7V/2200mAh/8.1WhOptional Li-ion 3.7V/3240mAh/12.0Wh The Li-ion battery packs are the primary power source for the Dolphin terminal as well as 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).Changing the Main Battery PackBefore installing a battery pack, press and hold the Blue + Backlight keys to put the terminal in Suspend Mode (see page 3-14) so that operations are suspended before removing the main power source. Always put the terminal in suspend mode prior to changing the battery.Charging OptionsWhen the battery is installed in the terminal, you can insert the terminal into any one of the following peripherals:•Dolphin HomeBase (see page 9-1)•Dolphin Charge/Comm Cable (see page 13-1)•Dolphin Power Cable (see page 13-1)To fully charge the Li-ion battery before installing it in the terminal, use the •Dolphin QuadCharger (see page 10-1)Charging TimeThe Li-ion battery pack requires four hours to charge to full capacity.Internal Backup BatteryLocated inside the terminal, the backup battery is a 3.6V nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery. The internal backup battery prevents the terminal from being reset when you remove the main battery pack. The backup battery retains RAM data and allows the real-time clock to remain operational for up to 30 minutes. If the terminal is left without the main battery pack for more than 30 minutes, the internal backup battery discharges and needs to be recharged to function according to specifications. Note: Even if the internal backup battery fails, data and programs stored in Flash memory are not totally lost. However, the terminal automatically cold boots when you install a fully charged battery pack and you need to reset the real-time clock.ChargingThe internal backup battery is powered by the main battery pack and must be fully charged before using the terminal for the first time. It takes approximately eight hours to fully charge the internal backup battery the first time. After that, if the internal backup battery is ever fully discharged, it takes 10 hours to recharge.!
3 - 12 Rev (a) Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide-Second Draft PreliminaryGuidelines Follow these guidelines to maximize the life of the Dolphin’s internal backup battery:• Keep a charged Li-ion battery pack in the Dolphin terminal. • Keep the Dolphin terminal connected to a power source when the terminal is not in use. Managing Battery PowerData and files saved on the Dolphin terminal may be stored in RAM memory; therefore, maintain a continuous power supply to the terminal to help prevent data loss. When you remove a battery pack, insert another charged battery pack in the Dolphin. If the main battery pack is low, insert the terminal into a charging peripheral to power the terminal and begin recharging the battery.Note: If the main battery is low and the terminal is in suspend mode, pressing the SCAN button does not wake the Dolphin terminal; you must replace the discharged battery with a fully charged battery.Default Low and Critical Battery PointsThe command bar at the bottom of the each screen displays battery warning icons when the main battery reaches low and critical battery points. The Dolphin terminal ships with default low and critical battery points already programmed in the registry:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power]Note: Battery power warnings do not appear when the terminal is running on external power.Setting Critical and Low Battery PointsDevelopers can re-reset the default battery points in the RegEdit Power Tool. 1.

Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide -Second Draft Preliminary Rev (a) 8 - 18WLAN Manager–802.11b/gOverviewThe Dolphin 7600 has an optional 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) radio that uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology. The radio is interoperable with other 802.11b Wi-Fi-compliant products including Access Points (APs), PCs via PC card adapters and other wireless portable devices.Speeds???If, # 802.11b - 11 Mbps, 2.4 GHz# 802.11g - 54 Mbps, 2.4 GHz How do we describe the speed of transmission on a b/g radio?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11#802.11g802.11bRelease Date Op. Frequency Data Rate (Typ) Data Rate (Max) Range (Indoor)1999 2.4 GHz 6.5 Mbit/s 11 Mbit/s 30 Metres802.11gRelease Date Op. Frequency Data Rate (Typ) Data Rate (Max) Range (Indoor)2003 June 2.4 GHz 25 Mbit/s 54 Mbit/s 30~ mIn June 2003, a third modulation standard was ratified: 802.11g. This flavour works in the 2.4 GHz band (like 802.11b) but operates at a maximum raw data rate of 54 Mbit/s, or about 24.7 Mbit/s net throughput like 802.11a. 802.11g hardware will work with 802.11b hardware. Details of making b and g work well together occupied much of the lingering technical pro-cess. In older networks, however, the presence of an 802.11b participant significantly reduces the speed of an 802.11g net-work. The modulation scheme used in 802.11g is orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) for the data rates of 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54 Mbit/s, and reverts to (like the 802.11b standard) CCK for 5.5 and 11 Mbit/s and DBPSK/DQPSK+DSSS for 1 and 2 Mbit/s. Even though 802.11g operates in the same frequency band as 802.11b, it can achieve higher data rates because of its similarities to 802.11a. The maximum range of 802.11g devices is slightly greater than that of 802.11b devices, but the range in which a client can achieve full (54 Mbit/s) data rate speed is much shorter than that of 802.11b.

Battery ChargingThe HomeBase completes a full charge of the main battery pack in less than four hours. In addition to charging, the HomeBase powers the intelligent battery charging system in the terminal that protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging. The terminal senses when a battery pack is fully charged and automatically switches to a trickle charge that maintains the battery at full capacity. As a result, Dolphin terminals may be stored in the HomeBase indefinitely without damage to the terminals, battery packs, or peripherals. CommunicationWith USB port, the data transmission rate goes up to 12 Mbps. HomeBases cannot be physically connected to each other–sometimes referred to as “daisy-chaining”–but can be networked together via serial or USB hubs.Convenient Storage The battery charging system makes the HomeBase a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your Dolphin terminal.CapacityThe HomeBase holds one Dolphin 7600 terminal and charges its battery pack. Power SupplyThe power cable that ships with each unit (see Charge the Batteries on page 2-2) also powers the Dolphin HomeBase.Use only the peripherals, power cables, and power adapters from Hand Held Products. Use of peripherals, cables, or power adapters not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products will void the warranty and may damage the terminal.Use only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Hand Held Products.

Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide -Second Draft Preliminary Rev (a) 10 - 110Dolphin QuadChargerOverviewThe Dolphin QuadCharger is a four-slot charging station that charges both 2200mAh or 3240mAh Li-ion battery packs in less than four hours. Battery ChargingEach 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. The charger also resets and calibrates battery pack data to accurately show battery status on the Dolphin display.Use only the peripherals, power cables, and power adapters from Hand Held Products. Use of peripherals, cables, or power adapters not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products will void the warranty and may damage the terminal. Use only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Hand Held Products. The use of any battery pack not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products in a Dolphin terminal will void your warranty and may result in damage to the Dolphin terminal or batFront Panel Charging SlotsThe QuadCharger contains four charging slots. Each slot holds one battery. When a battery is placed in a slot, it immediately begins charging. Status LEDsA status LED is located above each of the four battery slots. The color of the LED indicates the charge status of the batteries in its slot. Status LED color DescriptionGreen (solid) The battery has completed its charge cycle and is ready for use.Orange (solid) The battery is charging.Red (flashing) The QuadCharger encountered an error during the most recent charge cycle.!!Charging SlotsStatus LEDs

To remove a battery pack, push the locking tab down and pull the battery out from the charging slot with a hinging motion.Charging Batteries in the QuadChargerFor best results, battery packs should be at room temperature before recharging them; temperature has a marked effect on charging. The recommended temperature range is 50° to 95° F (10° to 35° C). 1. Supply the QuadCharger with power and turn the power switch on.2. Insert batteries into the appropriate slots. The Status LED for each slot turns orange to indicate that the battery has begun a charge cycle.3. When the Status LED turns green, the battery in the slot has completed charging.Recommendations for Storing BatteriesTo 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, do not keep batteries stored in a charger that is connected to a power source. Mounting the QuadChargerThe Dolphin QuadCharger should be on a dry, stable surface. To easily adapt the QuadCharger to your environment, it can be mounted on a flat, horizontal surface such as a desktop or workbench, or a flat, vertical surface such as a wall using a DIN rail on the bottom panel.
