received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions. The user may find the following booklet helpful: “Something About Interference.”
This is available at FCC local regional offices. Our company is not responsible for any radio or television
interference caused by unauthorized modifications of this equipment or the substitution or attachment of
connecting cables and equipment other than those specified by our company. The correction is the
responsibility of the user. Use only shielded data cables with this system.
In accordance with FCC 15.21, changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
CAUTION!
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the grantee of this device
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Canadian Compliance
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended to be operated indoors and
away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) installed outdoors
is subject to licensing.

For European Community Users
Honeywell complies with Directive 2002/96/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE
COUNCIL of 27 January 2003 on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Information
This product has required the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. It may contain
hazardous substances that could impact health and the environment, if not properly disposed.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure
on the natural resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back systems for product
disposal. Those systems will reuse or recycle most of the materials of the product you are disposing in a
sound way.

The crossed out wheeled bin symbol informs you that the product should not be disposed of along
with municipal waste and invites you to use the appropriate separate take-back systems for product
disposal.
If you need more information on the collection, reuse, and recycling systems, please contact your local or
regional waste administration.
You may also contact your supplier for more information on the environmental performances of this
product.
Pacemakers, Hearing Aids and Other Electrically Powered Devices
Most manufacturers of medical devices adhere to the IEC 601-1-2 standard. 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.
Microwaves
The 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.

Touch Screen Display
The display is a 65,536-color LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) covered by a touch screen lens. The 2.8” 1/4
VGA (Video Graphic Array) is TFT (Thin Film Transistor) color, backlit, and the resolution is 240 x 320;
see Display Backlight on page 3-4.
Dolphin terminals 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 highvolume interfacing with the touch screen. For more information, see Using Screen Protectors on
page 3-4.
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, for buttons or icons that are close together, you generally achieve greater accuracy
with the stylus; see Using the Stylus on page 2-5.
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.
Display Backlight
The touch screen display has a backlight that is programmed to turn off after a specified period of time
that the terminal is idle. For details, see Backlight on page 6-8.
Using Screen Protectors
Honeywell defines proper use of the terminal touch panel display 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.
Honeywell continues to advocate the use of screen protectors on all Dolphin terminals. We recommend
implementing a screen protector replacement program to ensure that screen protectors are replaced
periodically when signs of damage/wear are noticeable. For general use, we recommend replacing the
screen protector every thirty (30) days. However, replacement cycles vary according to the average level
of touch panel use in your application.
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
0.8mm. Use of the Honeywell stylus included with the terminal is recommended at all times.
Honeywell warranty policy covers wear on the touch panel display for the first 12 months provided that a
screen protector is applied and an approved stylus is used for the 12 month duration covered by the
warranty.
Removing the Screen Protector
Dolphin terminals ship with a touch screen protector already installed. To replace the screen protector,
you must remove the one already installed.

Battery Power
Dolphin terminals feature intelligent battery technology with two types of battery power:
•
•
The main battery pack on the back panel (see Main Battery Pack on page 3-21)
The backup battery located inside the terminal (see Internal Backup Battery on page 3-24)
Both 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 terminal for the first time!
Main Battery Pack
Use only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Honeywell. Use of any battery not sold/manufactured by
Honeywell may result in damage not covered by the warranty.
The Li-ion battery pack is 3.7V/3240mAh/12.0Wh and
the primary power source for both the Dolphin terminal
and the internal backup battery.
Changing the Main Battery Pack
Before installing a battery pack, press the Blue +
Backlight keys to put the terminal in Suspend Mode
(see page 3-26) so that operations are suspended
before removing the main power source. Always put the
terminal in suspend mode prior to changing the battery.
Charging Options
When the battery is installed in the terminal, you can insert the terminal into any one of the following
peripherals:
•
•
•
Power Cable (see page 2-1)
Dolphin HomeBase Device (see page 9-1)
Charge/Comm Cable (see page 3-17)
To fully charge the Li-ion battery before installing in the terminal, use the
•
Dolphin QuadCharger Device (see page 10-1)
Charging Time
The Li-ion battery pack requires four hours to charge to full capacity.
Battery Pack Storage Guidelines
To 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 Pack Use and Disposal
The following are general guidelines for the safe use and disposal of batteries:
• Use only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Honeywell. Use of any battery not sold/manufactured by
Honeywell may pose a personal hazard to the user.

• 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 use a battery in any other manner outside its intended use in Dolphin terminals and peripherals.
• 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.
• If you observe that the battery is physically damaged in some way, please send it to Honeywell or an
authorized Honeywell service center for inspection.
• 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 Honeywell or an
authorized Honeywell service center for inspection.
Managing Main Battery Power
Data 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 Critical and Low Battery Points
Dolphin terminals are programmed to display warnings when the battery reaches critical and low battery
points. The following registry entry sets both warning points:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power]
There are two DWORD values in this registry entry: LowBatt and CriticalBatt. The default values for these
entries are as follows:
LowBatt=19 (25%)
This sets the Low Battery point to 25% (19 hex=25 decimal). When the battery hits the
percentage charge specified here, the user is notified by this icon in the Navigation bar .
If the main battery is low and the terminal is in suspend mode, pressing the SCAN or Power
button won’t wake the Dolphin terminal; you must replace the discharged battery with a battery
charged over 25% mark before you can resume terminal operation.
CriticalBatt=a (10%)
This sets the Critical Battery point to 10% (a hex= 0 decimal). When the battery hits the
percentage charge specified here, the user is notified by this icon in the Navigation bar .
Note:
Warnings do not appear when the terminal is on external power.
Setting Critical and Low Battery Points
Developers can re-reset the default battery points in the RegEdit Power Tool.

Internal Backup Battery
Located 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.
Charging
The 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.

Toggling Between Alpha and Numeric Modes
The 29-key keyboard defaults to numeric mode, which means that the keyboard boots up to numeric
mode after each hard reset.
Numeric mode is when you type numbers with the number keys. Alpha mode is when you type letters or
characters with the number keys. The keyboard switches between alpha and numeric modes easily.
The command bar displays an icon that indicates the status of the keyboard so that you can see which
mode you’re in when toggling; see Alpha/Numeric Indicator on page 4-3.
Switching to Alpha Mode
To switch modes, tap the Blue modifier key
as follows:
• Single-tap to switch only the next character pressed to alpha mode.
The keyboard automatically switches back to numeric mode for the next key pressed.
• Double-tap to switch to alpha mode permanently.
Double-tap again to switch back to numeric mode permanently.
Alpha Indicators
Each number key has a blue section with white characters inside it that indicate which letter or symbol is
typed when you press that key in alpha mode.
Please note that when typing in alpha mode, you must use the same multi-press method you would use
when typing letters on a phone keypad. Each key press types the next letter in the sequence as displayed
by the alpha indicator.
Note: You can still use regular Blue key combinations in alpha mode by pressing and holding the Blue modifier key
with the next key in the combination. For combinations, see 29-Key Blue Key Combinations (Alpha Mode) on
page 4-7.
Shift Functionality
In Alpha Mode
When you switch the keyboard to alpha mode, letters type in lowercase by default.
To capitalize letters, tap the SFT key
as follows:
• Single-tap to capitalize only to the next letter pressed.
• Double-tap to turn CAPS LOCK on and off.
In Numeric Mode
Numeric mode is the default keyboard mode. When the keyboard is in numeric mode, tap the SFT key

Activating the Engine
When a scanning application is open, press the SCAN key
to activate the image engine. You can
also press one of the side buttons (see page 3-12), which are programmed to activate the image engine
in a scanning application by default.
Using Demos
Demos are software utilities loaded on all Dolphin terminals that demonstrate the advanced features of
the terminal. There are two Demos feature the image engine: Image Demo and Scan Demo.
To access these demos, tap Start > Demos,
• Select Scan Demo to verify decoding, or
• Select Image Demo to verify imaging.
For more information about Demos, refer to the Dolphin Demos User’s Guide, which is available for
download from www.honeywell.com/aidc.
LEDs
The LEDs in the center of both keyboards (for location, see LEDs on page 4-1) light when using the image
engine.
Scan LED
The LED on the right lights red when you press the scan trigger in scanning applications.
Decode LED
The LED on the left lights green when a scanned bar code is successfully decoded.
Decoding
The Dolphin terminal supports two types of image decoding: full-area imaging and Advanced Linear
Decoding (ALD).
Full-area Imaging
Full-area imaging means that the Dolphin terminal support omni-directional aiming, which
means that a positive read can be obtained from many positions. For details, see OmniDirectional Scanning Positions on page 5-4.
ALD
ALD provides fast reading of linear (1D) and stacked linear bar codes (PDF417). For the best
read, the aiming pattern should be centered horizontally across the bar code. When ALD is
enabled, the reader does not read matrix or postal codes.
To Decode a Bar Code
1.
Tap Start > Demos > Scan Demo.
2.
Position the Dolphin terminal over one of the sample bar codes on page 5-4.
A range of 4–10 inches (10–25 cm) from the bar code is recommended.
3.
Project the aiming brackets by pressing and holding the SCAN key. The Scan LED lights red.
4.
Center the aimer crosshair over the bar code. The aiming beam should be oriented in line with the
bar code to achieve optimal decoding; Omni-Directional Scanning Positions, page 5-4
Dolphin® 7600 Mobile Computer
User’s Guide–Preliminary
Rev (b): Preliminary
9/29/2008

5.
When the bar code is successfully decoded, the decode LED lights green and the terminal beeps.
Sample Bar Codes
You can use the following bar codes to verify decoding:
Sample 128
Sample PDF417
Code 128
PDF417 Test Message
Omni-Directional Scanning Positions
The high-vis aiming pattern frames the bar code to provide you with the best scanning performance.
Note: To achieve the best read, the aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar code.
The aiming pattern is smaller when the terminal is held closer to the code and larger when the terminal is
held farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to
the unit whereas larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.

Capturing Images
The image-capture process is an intuitive, split-second operation for experienced users. 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 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 and has a slightly degraded
appearance compared to the captured image. This is normal; the captured image has a higher
resolution.
File Formats
The 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 Size
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 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 Image
1.
Tap Start > Demos > Image Demo.
2.
Point the 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 as necessary. Use the preview on the screen as a guide.
5.
Hold the terminal still and release the SCAN key.
The touch screen flashes, and the captured image appears on the screen.
6.
By default, the image is saved to the My Device folder.
To save the image to another location, tap File > Save As.
High-Vis Aiming Pattern
If your terminal is configured with the 5300SR imager, you can enable the aiming pattern for imaging in
the Image Demo application.
1.
Tap Start > Demos > Imaging Demo > Options menu > Aimer.
2.
The aiming pattern is now enabled for imaging.
Uploading Images
Image files can be transmitted to a host workstation via
• Microsoft ActiveSync and a Dolphin communication peripheral
• Wireless radio: 802.11b/g and/or Bluetooth

If a Windows Mobile 6.0-based device is equipped with a GPS module, External GPS is a Microsoft tool
that determines which port an external GPS software application can use.
The Dolphin 7600 terminal is not equipped with a GPS module.
Memory
The Memory system setting displays capacity and usage statistics for both RAM (volatile) and IPSM/
Storage Card (non-volatile) memory. Access this setting whenever you receive system messages about
memory.
You cannot change the terminal’s memory allocation in the Memory system setting. To change the
memory allocation, you need to use the SetRAM Power Tool (Start > Power Tools > SetRAM). For more
details, please refer to the Honeywell Power Tools User’s Guide, which is available for download from
www.honeywell.com/aidc.
There are three tabs: Main, Storage Card, and Running Programs.
Main Tab
This tab displays the usage statistics of the on-board,
volatile RAM memory.
Columns:
Storage=RAM memory used for storing programs and program
data.
Program=RAM memory used to run programs.
Rows:
Total= Displays the current MB of memory allocated for use.
In use=Displays the total MB of that allocated memory in use.
Free=Displays the total MB of memory available.

This tab displays the current capacity and usage statistics
of the selected memory type; IPSM or Storage Card.
Storage Card Tab
Select the memory type from the drop-down list. IPSM is
selected by default.
Total storage card memory=The total MB of memory capacity
of IPSM or Storage Card.
In use=The MB currently being used.
Free=The MB that is still available for use.
IPSM—Short for Internal Persistent Storage Manager, this is the on-board Flash
memory that is non-volatile. Because this memory is non-volatile, data or programs
stored in IPSM are not affected when power is removed. Autoinstall programs, for
example, are stored in IPSM so that they are always installed at cold-boot startup.
Storage Card—You can install one memory card in Dolphin terminals (see Access
Door on page 3-12). If a storage card is installed in the terminal, you can select it in
the drop-down list and see capacity and usage statistics for the card.
Running
Programs Tab
Displays the software programs currently using Storage
memory.
Check this tab when you are receiving out of memory errors or
when the mobile computer is running slowly.
You can
• Select a program in the list and tap Stop to stop it from
running (and therefore from using memory), or
• Tap Stop All to automatically stop all running programs.
Anytime you stop a running program, it frees up RAM memory. Be advised that, when
you stop a program here, any unsaved data in that program is lost. To free up memory
without risking data loss, return to the running program, save your data, and close the
application.

Dolphin HomeBase Device
Overview
The Dolphin HomeBase device is a charging and communication cradle that supports full-speed USB 1.1
communication with a workstation. You can also purchase a serial RS-232 HomeBase device.
Battery Charging
The HomeBase device completes a full charge of the main battery pack in less than four hours.
In addition to charging, the HomeBase device 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, terminals may be stored in the HomeBase device indefinitely without damage to the terminals,

Battery Charging
Inserting and Removing Battery Packs
To insert a battery pack, place the end of the battery without the locking tab into the bottom of
the charging pocket and snap the battery into place with a hinging motion.
To remove a battery pack, push the locking tab down and pull the battery away from the
charging slot with a hinging motion.
Charging Process
The QuadCharger device charges Li-ion battery packs in four hours. 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 QuadCharger device charges Li-ion battery packs in four hours when 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 QuadCharger device.
When the battery temperature exceeds 40°C, the QuadCharger device may exceed the
stated four-hour charge time. The QuadCharger device 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.
To Charge Batteries
1.
Supply the QuadCharger device 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 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 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.

Mounting the QuadCharger Device
The QuadCharger device should be mounted on a dry, stable surface such as a desktop or workbench,
or a flat, vertical surface such as a wall.
Mounting Location
When choosing a location for the QuadCharger device:
• Keep in mind that the mounting location must allow users easy access to power switch and power
connector.
• Do NOT place the QuadCharger device in an enclosed space because restricted air flow can cause the
temperature to elevate, which can effect charging. For more information, see Battery Charging on page
10-3.
Mounting Process
To mount the QuadCharger device, slide the DIN Rail into the slot on the bottom panel. Then, using the
appropriate nuts and bolts, secure the DIN rail to the desk or wall.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems with the QuadCharger device, refer to chart below for possible solutions. If
problems persist, please contact Technical Assistance (see page 13-2).
Problem
Issue
The Status LED does not come on
when I insert a battery pack into a
slot.
Check the power connections on the QuadCharger device; make
sure the POWER switch is ON and the battery pack is properly
seated.
The Status LED lights red during
charging.
Try to charge the battery in one of the other charging slots. If the
red Status LED comes on again, then the problem is associated
with the battery pack. If the red status stays with the charging slot,
the problem is associated with the charging circuitry.
The Status LED lights red and stays
on without a battery in the charging
slot.
An error occurred during the self-diagnostic test for that particular
charging pocket. Call Honeywell Product Service and Repair (see
page 13-1) to request an RMA.

purchased at the time of shipment. This warranty does not cover any Honeywell product which is (i)
improperly installed or used; (ii) damaged by accident or negligence, including failure to follow the proper
maintenance, service, and cleaning schedule; or (iii) damaged as a result of (A) modification or alteration
by the purchaser or other party, (B) excessive voltage or current supplied to or drawn from the interface
connections, (C) static electricity or electro-static discharge, (D) operation under conditions beyond the
specified operating parameters, or (E) repair or service of the product by anyone other than Honeywell or
its authorized representatives.
This warranty shall extend from the time of shipment for the duration published by Honeywell for the
product at the time of purchase ("Warranty Period"). Any defective product must be returned (at
purchaser’s expense) during the Warranty Period to Honeywell’s factory or authorized service center for
inspection. No product will be accepted by Honeywell without a Return Materials Authorization, which
may be obtained by contacting Honeywell. In the event that the product is returned to Honeywell or its
authorized service center within the Warranty Period and Honeywell determines to its satisfaction that the
product is defective due to defects in materials or workmanship, Honeywell, at its sole option, will either
repair or replace the product without charge, except for return shipping to Honeywell.
EXCEPT AS MAY BE OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE FOREGOING
WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER COVENANTS OR WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
HONEYWELL’S RESPONSIBILITY AND PURCHASER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS
WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT WITH
NEW OR REFURBISHED PARTS. IN NO EVENT SHALL HONEYWELL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND, IN NO EVENT, SHALL ANY LIABILITY OF
HONEYWELL ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PRODUCT SOLD HEREUNDER (WHETHER
SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM A CLAIM BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE ACTUAL AMOUNT PAID TO HONEYWELL FOR THE PRODUCT. THESE
LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT EVEN WHEN
HONEYWELL MAY HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH INJURIES, LOSSES, OR
DAMAGES. SOME STATES, PROVINCES, OR COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATIONS OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR
EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
All provisions of this Limited Warranty are separate and severable, which means that if any provision is
held invalid and unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the validity of enforceability of the
other provisions hereof.
Use of any peripherals not manufactured/sold by Honeywell may result in damage not covered by this
warranty. This includes but is not limited to: cables, power supplies, power adapters, cradles, and docking
stations.
