This standard requires devices to operate properly in an EM Field with a strength of 3V/m over a frequency range of 26 to 1000MHz. The maximum allowable field strength emitted by the Dolphin is 0.3V/m according to Subpart B of Part 1 of the FCC rules. Therefore, the Dolphin RF has no effect on medical devices that meet the IEC specification. MicrowavesThe radio in the Dolphin RF terminal operates on the same frequency band as a microwave oven. Therefore, if you use a microwave within range of the Dolphin RF terminal you may notice performance degradation in your wireless network. However, both your microwave and your wireless network will continue to function. The Dolphin Batch terminal does not contain a radio, and therefore, is not affected by microwave ovens.

Note: To manually check battery power, also tap Start > Settings > Control Panel > double-tap Power . Storage GuidelinesTo maintain optimal battery performance, follow these storage guidelines:• Avoid storing batteries outside the specified range of -4 to 122° F (-20 to 50°C) or in extremely high humidity.• For prolonged storage, do not keep batteries stored in a charger that is connected to a power source. Guidelines for Battery Use and DisposalThe following are general guidelines for the safe use and disposal of batteries:• Use only the battery supplied, recommended, or approved by Hand Held Products. • Replace defective batteries immediately; using a defective battery could damage the Dolphin terminal.• Never throw a used battery in the trash. It contains heavy metals and should be recycled according to local guidelines. • Don’t short-circuit a battery or throw it into a fire. It can explode and cause severe personal injury.• Excessive discharge damages a battery. Recharge the battery when your terminal indicates low battery power.• Although your battery can be recharged many times, it will eventually be depleted. Replace it after the battery is unable to hold an adequate charge.• If you are not sure the battery or charger is working properly, please send it to Hand Held Products or an authorized Hand Held Products service center for inspection.
Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B1/17/20073 - 13Internal Backup BatteryLocated inside the terminal, the backup battery is a 2.4V nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery.The internal backup battery prevents the terminal from being reset when you remove the main battery pack. This 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 (IPSM) or an optional SD card are not 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 charges off the main battery pack and requires eight hours charge time to backup RAM data for 30 minutes. You can begin using the Dolphin terminal after charging the main battery for four hours; however, the internal backup battery will continue to charge off the main battery. To ensure that the internal backup battery functions properly, maintain a consistent power supply for the first eight hours of terminal operation. This power supply can be external power (using a charging peripheral) or an installed, charged battery pack or a combination of both.Guidelines 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.

By following basic guidelines, however, new users can easily develop their own technique and, with practice, quickly learn to adapt to different application environments.Image PreviewWhen 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 and has a slightly degraded appearance compared to the captured image. This is normal; the captured image has a higher resolution.File FormatsThe Dolphin terminal is capable of saving images in a number of industry-standard file formats such as *.bmp, *.jpg and *.png. The default file format for images is a grayscale *.jpg. File SizeDigital 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 the image. The average size of the image file is approximately 4–8K. However, the size of the image depends on image content, the more complex the content, the larger the file size. Taking an Image1.

Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B1/17/20076 - 3ActiveSync CommunicationTo synchronize, ActiveSync 4.1 or higher must be installed and configured for the appropriate communication type on the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal. Dolphin terminals ship with ActiveSync already installed. Therefore, if ActiveSync is already installed on the host workstation, you just need to connect the Dolphin terminal to the host workstation (via Dolphin peripheral) to initiate communication.If ActiveSync 4.1 or higher is not installed on the host workstation, install it from the Microsoft Companion CD that came with the Dolphin terminal. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive of the host workstation and click the yellow arrow, then Start Here, and follow the directions on your screen.Note: You can also download the most current version of ActiveSync from www.microsoft.com and install.When communicating via ActiveSync, your terminal must be connected to the host workstation with a communication peripheral sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products, such as the Dolphin HomeBase or Dolphin Charge/Communication cable. Use of any peripheral not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products may damage your terminal and will void the warranty.Communication TypesThe Dolphin 7600 supports the following types of communication via ActiveSync through its I/O Connector (see page 3-8) on the bottom panel:USB The USB cable and hardware peripherals allow the Dolphin terminal to communicate with a workstation or to networked through a USB hub. The Dolphin terminal supports full-speed USB communication (USB 1.1); maximum data transfer rate is 12 Mbps. The Dolphin terminal defaults to USB communication out of the box.RS-232 The RS-232 cable allows the Dolphin terminal to communicate with a workstation, modem, or any RS-232 device. Maximum data transfer rate is 115 Kbps.Hardware Requirements for Setup• Dolphin HomeBase or Dolphin communication cable • Dolphin power cable from Hand Held Products• USB Cable (for USB communication)• Serial Cable (for RS-232 communication)• ActiveSync v4.1 or higher installed on the host workstation• Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT (4.0 SP6 or higher) or Windows XP computer. Software Requirements for CommunicationTo sync successfully, ActiveSync must be configured for same communication type on both the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal. ActiveSync must be setup on your workstation before you initiate synchronization from the terminal for the first time.Setting Up the Host WorkstationVerify that ActiveSync is configured to use the appropriate communication type by clicking File > Connection Settings.Note: You can have both USB and RS-232 selected in the software without affecting processing. However, your hardware setup should use only RS-232 or USB, not both.!For USB communication, check Allow USB connections.For RS-232 communication, connect to COM1.

Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B 7 - 17Managing the 802.11b/g RadioOverviewThe 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/g Wi-Fi-compliant products including access points (APs), PCs via PC card adapters and other wireless portable devices.Server-Assigned IP AddressesPlease note that all server-assigned IP addresses use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).Activating the 802.11b/g RadioTo activate the 802.11b/g radio, single-tap the WLAN Manager icon . (The “X” appears over the icon when the radio is deactivated.) Select Activate on the popup menu. The WLAN Manager loads. When the WLAN Manager is finished loading, the X is removed from the WLAN Manager icon and the yellow bars indicate that the radio is transmitting .Activating the radio automatically disables the wireless zero-config (WZC) feature of Windows CE! Deactivating the 802.11b/g RadioWhen you deactivate the 802.11b/g radio, it no longer transmits an RF signal. To deactivate the radio, tap Deactivate on the WLAN Manager menu.Note: The WLAN Manager also displays operating statistics for the 802.11b/g radio; see Checking Radio Status on page 7-20.!
7 - 2 Rev B Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s GuideConfiguring the 802.11b/g RadioThe Dolphin 7600 contains the Cisco AEGIS Client® (the Client), a comprehensive IEEE 802.1X tool to set up the on-board 802.11b/g radio. The Client is a standards-based implementation of IEEE 802.1X and can be configured to work with almost any network equipment–wired or wireless–that supports the 802.1X authentication standard. The Client is interoperable with 802.1X-capable wireless APs and authentication servers including Microsoft's IAS and Cisco's ACS.The Client uses public key authentication and encryption between Wireless APs (WAP) and roaming stations to exchange dynamic Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys. In addition, network managers can control 802.1X user profiles from a centralized RADIUS server or, in the case of TTLS, from a RADIUS Diameter or other AAA servers. The Client supports both wireless (802.11b/g) and ethernet interfaces. Supported Protocols AuthenticationThe Client supports the following authentication methods according to the 802.1X protocols: •MD5 • EAP TLS• EAP TTLS• Cisco LEAP and PEAP• Microsoft PEAP EncryptionThe Client supports the following encryptions methods:• WEP (64-bit and 128-bit)•TKIPThe Client can also configure 802.11b/g with no authentication and no encryption; see Associating With Open APs on page 7-16.Required Network Configuration InformationBecause the Client accesses a network that is protected by the IEEE 802.1X protocol, you must configure EAP data communication to match your network server parameters. If the EAP configuration doesn’t match your network configuration, you can’t access the network. Therefore, make sure you have the correct network server parameters on hand when you configure the client.Opening the ClientSingle-tap the icon in the command bar.The Client opens in Start Mode, which means that the 802.1X radio starts transmitting a signal. For more information about the main window, see Main Window on page 7-3.

7 - 8 Rev B Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s GuideProtocol TabThe Protocol tab configures parameters that apply to all the networks the selected port connects to.Field DescriptionProtocol Settings These are the timer intervals and retry settings defined in the 802.1X standard. They determine how long the supplicant state machine will wait in a given state. These parameters shouldn’t be modified without an understanding of the supplicant state machine. For more information about the supplicant state machine, obtain its 802.1X protocol specification. The parameters are:•Authentication Timeout—The period of time the Client remains in the authenticating or acquired state without receiving a response from the AP or switch. •Held Timeout—The period of time the Client remains in the held state after failing authentication. •Start Timeout—The period of time the Client remains in the connecting state before restarting when there is no response. •Number of Start Attempts—The number of times the Client restarts before giving up. At that point, the Client then defaults to the authenticated state, but there will be no network connectivity because the protocol exchange was never completed.Display EAP notificationsSpecifies that the EAPOL notification message will be displayed to the user. An authenticator may use such notification to inform you, for example, about a near password expiration. However, some authenticators send chatty and annoying notifications that may, for the convenience of the user, be suppressed. Note that all notifications are written to the event log even if they are not displayed.Renew IP address Initiates a DHCP request to obtain a dynamic IP address after a successful authentication, but only if the client detects that the connected network (the SSID) has changed. The result is that renewal should not occur upon re-authentication, but does occur at boot or when connecting to a different network. If you have a slow authenticator, you may wish to enable this option when configuring the service because a slow authenticator may prevent you from getting a DHCP-assigned IP address upon boot-up. This option is ignored if the given adapter has a static IP address.
Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B 7 - 9Configuring a Network ProfileYou can configure a network based on an AP in range, create a new network, or modify the default (see page 7-7) network.

The identity value can be up to 63 ASCII characters and is case-sensitive. For tunneled authentication protocols such as TTLS and PEAP, this identity (called the Phase 1 identity) is sent outside the protection of the encrypted tunnel. Therefore, this field should not contain a true identity, but the identity “anonymous” and any desired realm (e.g. anonymous@myrealm.com) instead. For TTLS and PEAP, true user credentials (Phase 2 identity) are entered in the Tunneled authentication section.When used with PEAP and the .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2, this field must contain the identity used in both Phase I and Phase II. The Phase II identity field is ignored.Password This is the password used for MD5-Challenge or LEAP authentication. It may contain up to 63 ASCII characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced security.
Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B 7 - 13Authentication typeThis is the authentication method to be used:• MD5-Challenge•TLS•LEAP• TTLS• PEAP Your network administrator should let you know the protocols supported by the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server sits on the network and acts as a central credential repository for Access Servers that receive the radio signals and ultimately block or allow users to attach to the network. Use certificate Specifies the certificate passed to the server for verification during authentication. To appear in this list, certificates must be installed and recognized by both the operating system and the Client; see Certificates on page 7-17.A certificate is required for TLS, optional for TTLS and PEAP, and unused by MD5 and LEAP. Therefore, this option becomes active only when TLS, TTLS, or PEAP is selected as the Authentication type.To select a client certificate, tap Change and select the certificate from the list that appears. The Issued to column should match the Identity field and the user ID on the authentication server used by the authenticator. Your certificate must be valid with respect to the authentication server. This generally means that the authentication server must accept the issuer of your certificate as a Certificate Authority. When obtaining a client certificate, do not enable strong private key protection. If you enable strong private key protection for a certificate, you will need to enter an access password for the certificate each time this certificate is used. Tunneled authentication area Tunneled authentication parameters are used by only by TLS, TTLS and PEAP protocols, in Phase 2 of authentication, and after the secure tunnel has been established. Note: TLS uses a certificate instead of a username and password for tunneled authentication. Therefore, if you select TLS, the Use certificate box selects automatically (tap Change to select the certificate) and the Tunneled authentication area remains inactive.Identity The user identity used in Phase 2 authentication. The identity specified may contain up to 63 ASCII characters, is case-sensitive and takes the form of a Network Access Identifier, consisting of <name of the user>@<user’s home realm>. The user’s home realm is optional and indicates the domain to which the tunneled transaction is to be routed.Because Microsoft .NET Enterprise Server Version 5.2 does not use this parameter for PEAP, This field will have no effect for PEAP at this time. Phase 1 identity is used instead.Password The password used for the tunneled authentication protocol specified. It may contain up to 63 ASCII characters and is case-sensitive. Asterisks appear instead of characters for enhanced security.Protocol This parameter specifies the authentication protocol operating within the secure tunnel.

Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B 7 - 15Server TabThe Server tab controls how the Client authenticates the server that handles the 802.1X protocol on the network side. This applies only to the TLS, TTLS, and PEAP authentication methods and is used to tell the Client what server credentials to accept from the authentication server to verify the server. The Client uses this information to verify that the Client is communicating with a trusted server. Field DescriptionDo not validate server certificate chainIf this option is selected, the server certificate received during the TLS/TTLS/PEAP message exchange is not validated.Certificate issuer must be This is the certificate authority used during TLS/TTLS/PEAP message exchange. Any Trusted CA is the default selection and means that any certificate authority can be used during authentication.Both trusted intermediate certificate authorities and root authorities whose certificates exist in the system store are available for selection in the drop-down list. Allow intermediate certificatesThis option enables unspecified certificates to be in the server certificate chain between the server certificate and the certificate authority selected in the Certificate issuer must be drop-down list. This option also allows the server certificate received during negotiation to be issued directly by the certificate authority or by one of its intermediate certificate authorities. If not selected, the selected Certificate issuer must have directly issued the server certificate.Server name must be This is either the server name or the domain the server belongs to, depending on which option is selected below the text field.During authentication, this name will be compared to the server certificate’s Subject: CN field.Must match exactly When selected, the server name entered must match the server name found on the certificate exactly.Must contain domain nameWhen selected, the server name field identifies a domain and the certificate must have a server name belonging to this domain or to one of its sub-domains (e.g., zeelans.com, where the server is blueberry.zeelans.com).

Dolphin® 7600 Series User’s Guide Rev B 7 - 17Certificates During configuration, you may have specified one or two certificates to use during the authentication process. Certificate Requirements The specified identity should match the Issued to field in the certificate and should be registered on the authentication server that is used by the authenticator (i.e., a RADIUS server). In addition, your certificate must be valid on the authentication server. This requirement depends on the authentication server and generally means that the authentication server must know the issuer of your certificate as a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). If the selected certificate does require a password or pass phrase to decode the private key, enter the password or pass phrase in the Certificate Pass Phrase field in the Meetinghouse Certificate Installer. This value will be encrypted when the configuration is saved. However, on some systems, there may not be a certificate. Note: Client or CA certificates can be imported from *.cer (same as *.der), *.p7b, or *.pfx files.Installing Certificates with the Meetinghouse Certificate InstallerCertAdd is a separate utility that allows certificates to be selected and installed on the device for the Client. This method ensures that the certificate is recognized by the Client.1. Download the certificate file to the device; see Installing a Root Certificate on page 7-17. 2. Tap to Start > Programs > Meetinghouse Certificate Installer.3. Navigate to the certificate location. Tap and hold on a certificate in the list. 4. Tap OK on the popup message and the certificate is loaded into the correct certificate store.5. Tap the Server Tab (see page 7-15) and verify that the certificate appears in the Certificate issuer must be drop-down list. 6. To verify that the operating system recognizes this certificate, see Installing a Root Certificate on page 7-17.Installing a Root CertificateThis method ensures that the certificate is recognized by the operating system. Sometimes, if a certificate is not functioning properly, it can mean that the operating system doesn’t recognize it even if the Client does. Follow these steps to verify that the operating system recognizes the certificate. 1. Save the certificate to the device. If no error appears when you save the certificate, it was most likely saved to the device. Note: To make sure that the certificate persists through cold boots, install the certificate to the \IPSM folder.2. To verify that the certificate is recognized by the operating system, tap Start > Settings > Control Panel > Certificates . 3. This list displays all the certificates recognized by the operating system. If your certificate appears in this list, the operating system recognizes it. 4.
