RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This mobile phone meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio waves. This phone is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use
only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is
0.364 W/kg Max. and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.568 W/kg Max. (Body-
worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they
all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone
is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid
after searching on FCC ID: HD57800LW.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for
use with an accessory that contains no metal and positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do
not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone is switched on.

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 terminal is 0.3V/m according to
Subpart B of Part 1 of the FCC rules. Therefore, the RF from the Dolphin terminal has no effect on
medical devices that meet the IEC specification.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
The Dolphin 7800 has been tested for hearing aid compatibility. This device has an M3 and T3 rating.
For additional HAC information, including the HAC rating for this product, please refer to
www.honeywellaidc.com.
When some wireless devices are used near some hearing devices such as hearing aids and implants,
users may detect a buzzing or humming noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to
this interference noise. Wireless devices may also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The ratings for compatibility of digital wireless devices with hearing aids are described in the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard:
M-Rating: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference
with hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the superior/higher of the two ratings.
T-Rating: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with hearing
devices' telecoil than unrated phones. T4 is the superior/higher of the two ratings.
The more immune the hearing aid device is, the less likely one is to experience interference noise from
the wireless phone. Hearing aid devices may also be rated. Adding the ratings of the hearing aid and
the phone would determine probable usability:
• Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers the best use.
• Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use this
device successfully. Trying out this device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
This device has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies
that it utilizes. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have
not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone
thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear
any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on
hearing aid compatibility.
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.

Step 3. Charge the Main and Backup Batteries
The power supply for Dolphin terminals consists of two types of battery power: the main battery pack
that is accessible from the back panel, and the backup battery that resides inside the terminal. The main
battery powers the terminal. The internal backup battery charges off the main battery and maintains the
application data stored in RAM memory for up to 5 minutes when the terminal’s main battery pack is
completely discharged or removed.
Dolphin 7800 terminals are designed for use with the following 7800 charging devices and cables:
7800-HB, 7800-EHB, 7800-NB, 7800-CB, 7800-DEX, 7800-MC, 7800-MB, 7800-USB, and 7800-USBH.
See Chapters 12-17 for additional information on the individual device requirements.
Before Initial Use
Terminals are shipped with both batteries discharged of all power. The initial charging time for the main
battery pack is 4 hours for the standard battery pack or 6 hours for the extended battery pack. Connect
the terminal to one of the 7800 series charging peripherals to charge; see Peripherals for the 7800 on
page 3-3.
Note: Honeywell recommends charging the Dolphin terminal for at least 24 hours prior to initial use to ensure the
internal backup battery is fully charged.
We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of any non-Honeywell
peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Charging Using the Communication Cable
Ensure all components are dry prior to mating terminals/batteries with peripheral devices. Mating wet
components may cause damage not covered by the warranty.

File Provisioning on the 7800
\IPSM\Honeywell
The IPSM folder is the only partition on the 7800 that persists across a kernel upgrade (*.UPG file exten-
sion). During a kernel upgrade, files are automatically copied from the \IPSM\Honeywell\Autoin-
stall 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 ker-
nel 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 the root file
system is reformatted so all data in the folder is deleted and replaced by any files in the \IPSM\Honey-
well\AutoInstall 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 perform-
ing an upgrade.
\Honeywell\AutoInstall
If you run a CAB file from within the \Honeywell\AutoInstall (user store) folder, after the program
has been installed, the CAB file will be deleted from the User Store. 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) in both the \IPSM\Honeywell\Autoinstall folder and the
\Honeywell\Autoinstall.
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
Customer Support on page 18-1. or go to www.honeywellaidc.com.
To prevent data loss, back up all user data to an SD card or external memory device before perform-

I/O Power Out
The I/O connector also provides power out (to peripheral devices) +5V at 500mA. This means that,
with the proper cable, the terminal can power another device. By default, power out is disabled, but the
5V output may be enabled, see Five Volt Control on page 7-12.
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 pro-
tector 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 pro-
tector 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 edge of the touch panel. Make sure that the
screen protector is flush with edges 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.
Healthcare Housing
Some configurations of the 7800 terminal are available with an external plastic housing that is designed
to resist the effects of harsh chemicals in a healthcare environment. The plastic is crystalline in nature,
which helps prevent chemicals from seeping through the housing.
Important! The following cleaning solutions have been tested to assure safe cleaning of your terminal’s
disinfectant-ready housing. They are the only solutions approved for use with these
terminals. Damage caused by the use of cleaners other than those listed below may not be
covered by the warranty.
• Sani-Cloth® Plus wipes
• Gentle dish soap and water
DRAFT COPY 11/11/11

Batteries
There are two types of battery power: the main battery pack installed in the back panel and the backup
battery located inside the terminal. They are designed to work together to prevent data loss when the
terminal is in use over long periods.
Both batteries must be completely charged before using a Dolphin terminal for the first time!
Main Battery Pack
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
Dolphin 7800 model terminals are designed for use with standard battery pack model 7800-BTSC (Li-ion
3.7 V, 8.9 watt hour) and extended battery pack models 7800-BTXC and 7800-BTXCW (Li-ion 3.7 V,
14.8 watt hour) mhanufactured for Honeywell International Inc.
Charging Options
When the main battery pack is installed in the terminal, use one of the following peripherals:
• Dolphin 7800 HomeBase Device (Model 7800-HB) (see page 12-1)
• Dolphin 7800 eBase Device (Model 7800-EHB) (see page 13-1)

When the main battery pack is not installed in the terminal:
• Place the battery pack in the Dolphin 7800 QuadCharger Device (Model 7800-QC) (see page 17-1)
• Place the battery pack in the Auxiliary Battery Well of the Dolphin 7800 HomeBase Device (Model
7800-HB) (see page 12-1) or Dolphin 7800 eBase Device (Model 7800-EHB) (see page 13-1).
For information on how to remove the main battery pack from the terminal, see Replacing the Main
Battery Pack on page 2-4.
Charging Time
The standard battery pack requires 4 hours to charge completely before initial and the extended battery
pack requires 6 hours to charge completely before initial use.
Honeywell recommends charging the Dolphin terminal for at least 24 hours prior to initial use to ensure
the internal backup battery is fully charged.
Battery Error Notification
If your terminal displays the following indicators, replace the main battery pack with a Honeywell Li-ion
7800 standard or extended battery pack. For information on how to remove the main battery pack from
the terminal, see Replacing the Main Battery Pack on page 2-4.

Storing Batteries
To maintain top performance from batteries, avoid storing batteries outside of the following temperature
ranges:
• 14°F to 113°F (-10°C to +45°C) for short term storage of less than one month
• 32°F to 86°F (-0°C to +30°C) for long term storage
Do not store batteries 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:
• Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred.
• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose
to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.
• Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion or other hazard.
• We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may pose a
personal hazard to the user.
• Only use the battery for the system for which it is specified. Do not use a battery in any other manner
outside its intended use in Dolphin terminals and peripherals.
• Only use the battery with a charging system that has been qualified with the system per standard IEEE-
Std-1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage,
or other hazard.
• Replace the battery only with another battery that has been qualified with the system per this standard,
IEEE-Std-1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or
other hazard.
• Replace defective batteries immediately; using a defective battery could damage the Dolphin terminal.
• Never throw a used battery in the trash. Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.
• Do not short-circuit a battery or throw it into a fire; it can explode and cause severe personal injury. Do
not allow metallic conductive objects to contact battery terminals.
• If you observe that the Honeywell battery supplied is physically damaged, please send it to Honeywell
International Inc. or an authorized service center for inspection, see Product Service and Repair on
page 18-1.
• Avoid dropping the terminal or battery. If the terminal or battery is dropped, especially on a hard
surface, and the user suspects damage, send it to a Honeywell International Inc. or an authorized
service center for inspection.
• If you are not sure the battery or charger is working properly, send it to Honeywell International Inc. or
an authorized service center for inspection, see Product Service and Repair on page 18-1.
• Excessive discharge can degrade battery performance. Recharge the battery when your terminal
indicates low battery power.
• Although your battery can be recharged many times, the battery life is limited. Replace it after the
battery is unable to hold an adequate charge.
DRAFT COPY 11/11/11
3 - 14
Internal Backup Battery
Located inside the terminal is a 3.6 Volt nickel metal hydride (NiMH) backup battery. The backup battery
prevents the terminal from being reset if you need to replace the main battery pack. It retains RAM data
during the battery pack exchange. A fully charged backup battery provides 5 minutes of data backup
time.
Note: A fully charged backup battery preserves RTC content for approximately 168 hours when the terminal is in
suspend mode and the main battery is not installed or completely depleted of charge.
If at any time the backup battery becomes fully discharged of power (e.g., the terminal is left without the
main battery pack for more than 5 minutes), the terminal resets when power is supplied. All files are
retained, but you may need to restart any running applications. In addition, a fully discharged backup
battery requires a minimum of 24 hours of charging time to reach a full charge.
Note: Data and programs stored in Flash memory are not lost even if the internal backup battery fails.
Charging
The internal backup battery is powered by the main battery pack. Therefore, charging the internal battery
requires a charged main battery pack be installed in the terminal and the terminal be connected to a
charging device.
The internal backup battery must be fully charged before using the terminal for the first time. Honeywell
recommends charging the Dolphin terminal for at least 24 hours prior to initial use to ensure the internal
backup battery is fully charged. After that, if the internal backup battery becomes fully discharged of
power, it requires a minimum of 24 hours of charging time to function normally.
Guidelines for Use
Follow these guidelines to maximize the life of the internal backup battery:
• Keep a charged battery pack in the terminal; the backup battery prematurely discharges if there is not
at least a partially charged battery in the terminal.
• Keep the terminal connected to power when the terminal is not in use.
Managing Battery Power
Letting the backup battery become fully discharged causes the terminal to lose all data in RAM. Honey-
well recommends, you keep a charged battery pack in the terminal at all times to help prevent data loss.
The internal battery discharges prematurely if there is not at least a partially charged battery in the termi-
nal. When you remove a battery pack, insert another charged battery pack in the terminal immediately.
Default Critical and Low Battery Points
When the terminal is running on battery power (as opposed to external power), warnings are displayed
when the battery reaches critical and low battery points. The warning points are determined by the fol-
lowing registry entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Power]
There are two DWORD values in this registry entry: MedState and LowState.
The default values for these entries are as follows:
DRAFT COPY 11/11/11
3 - 15
MedState=25%
This sets the Low Battery point to 25%. When the battery hits the percentage charge specified
here, the user is notified.
LowState=10%
This sets the Critical Battery point to 10%. When the battery hits the percentage charge
specified here, the user is notified.
Note: Warnings do not appear when the terminal is on external power.
Setting Critical and Low Battery Points
Developers can reset the battery parameters in the registry from 0 (no warning) to 99 (would nearly
always warn). You can review and set these battery points in the RegEdit Power Tool.
1. Tap > Power Tools > RegEdit.
2. Drill down to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > ControlPanel > Power.
3. Tap the Value Name to change the Value Data.

Decoding
The terminal supports two types of image decoding for use in various bar code reading and imaging
applications: full-area imaging and Advanced Linear Decoding (ALD).
Full-Area Imaging
Full-area imaging provides omni-directional reading of linear and non-linear 1D and 2D bar codes, OCR,
signature capture, and picture taking. When reading all bar code types using full-area imaging, a positive
read can be obtained from many positions; see Aiming Beam Options on page 4-5. To achieve the best
read, the aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar code.
ALD
ALD provides fast reading of linear and stacked linear bar codes. To achieve a positive read when read-
ing linear 1D and PDF417 bar codes, the aiming beam 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
The aiming beam should be oriented in line with the bar code to achieve optimal decoding. A range
of 4-10 inches (10-25 cm) from the bar code is recommended.
1. Tap > Demos > Scan Demo .
2. Point the Dolphin terminal at the bar code.
3. Press and hold the SCAN key. The aiming beam or pattern appears and the general notification
LED illuminates red.
4. Center the aiming beam over the bar code; see Aiming Beam Options on page 4-5.
Note: For optimum performance, avoid reflections by scanning the bar code at a slight angle.
5. When the bar code is successfully decoded, the general notification LED flashes green and the
terminal beeps.
6. The bar code information is entered into the application in use.
DRAFT COPY 11/11/11
4 - 5
Aiming Beam Options
The aiming beams are smaller when the terminal is held closer to the code and larger when it is farther
from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit
whereas symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.
N5603 Red High-Vis Aiming Pattern
If your Dolphin terminal is configured with a N5603 imager, high-vis aimers frame the bar code for more
intuitive aiming. See Laser Safety on page 1-1.

Capturing Images
The image-capture process is an intuitive, split-second operation for experienced users. By following the
basic guidelines, new users can easily develop their own technique and, with practice, quickly learn to
adapt it 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.
Scan Key
On all 7800 terminals, the SCAN key captures images.
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 JPG.
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 soft-
ware application used to take images. The average size of the image file is approximately 4–8K. How-
ever, 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. To preview the image, press and hold the SCAN key. The general notification LED illuminates red.
4. Adjust the terminal’s position until the object appears on the touch screen the way you want it to
appear in the image.
5. Hold the terminal still and release the SCAN key. The LED flashes green, the screen briefly flashes,
and then the captured image appears on the screen.
6. Tap file Save or Save As.
Note: Unless otherwise specified by the application in use, the image is saved to the \My
Device\My
Documents folder.

Enabling the Aimer
You can enable the aiming pattern for imaging in the Imaging Demo. For details about the aimer, see
Aiming Beam Options on page 4-5.
1. Tap > Demos > Imaging Demo > Setup menu > Aimer.
2. The aiming pattern is now enabled for imaging.
Uploading Images
Image files can be uploaded to a host workstation using Microsoft ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device
Center and a Dolphin communication peripheral. For additional information see Connecting and
Synchronizing the Terminal and Workstation on page 8-6.

cation type on the host workstation (Windows-based PC) and the Dolphin terminal. Dolphin terminals
ship with ActiveSync already installed. Therefore, if ActiveSync or WMDC is already installed on the host
workstation, you just need to connect the Dolphin terminal to the host workstation (via Dolphin periph-
eral) to initiate communication.
If ActiveSync (4.5 or higher) or WMDC is not installed on the host workstation, you can download and
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=147001 the most current version of the software from the
Microsoft Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=147001).
Note: ActiveSync on your Dolphin terminal works with WMDC on host workstations running Windows Vista or
Windows 7 and with ActiveSync on host workstations running Windows XP. For detailed information on
ActiveSync and WMDC visit the Microsoft Windows Phone Web site.
When communicating via ActiveSync or WMDC, your terminal is designed to be connected to the host
workstation with a communication peripheral sold/manufactured by Honeywell, such as the charge/
communication cable. Use of any peripheral not sold/manufactured by Honeywell may cause damage not
covered by the warranty.
Capabilities
• Back up and restore your device data.
• Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and workstation.
• Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For example, you can
synchronize continually while connected to your workstation or only when you choose the synchronize
command.
DRAFT COPY 11/11/11

• Select which information types are synchronized, controling how much data is synchronized. For
example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronized.
Communication Types
The 7800 terminal supports Hi-Speed USB communication (USB 2.0) via ActiveSync through the I/O
Connector (see page 3-10) on the bottom panel of the terminal. The maximum data transfer rate is 480
Mbps. A USB cable and a Honeywell hardware peripheral (e.g., HomeBase) allow the terminal to com-
municate with a workstation or to networked through a USB hub. The Dolphin terminal defaults to USB
communication out of the box.
Hardware Requirements for Setup
• Dolphin communication peripheral (e.g., HomeBase, eBase, USB Communication/Charge Cable) and
power supply.
• A USB cable if one is not supplied with your Dolphin communication peripheral.
Software Requirements for Communication
• ActiveSync (v4.5 or higher) or Windows Mobile Device Center installed and configured on the host
workstation (PC), see Setting Up the Host Workstation on page 8-7.

Working
with GPS
Overview
The Dolphin 7800 terminal contains an integrated GPS module that allows location tracking of workers
and vehicles, providing better utilization of field assets. Optional mapping and navigation software pro-
vides turn-by-turn driving directions and location information.
Assisted GPS Support
The operating system software does not inhibit nor explicitly support assisted GPS modes, which usually
requires installing a vendor-specific client on the terminal that communicates with the GPS module. This
client would then provide the almanac and/or ephemeris data for warm or hot start modes of operation,
allowing a lower time to first fix (TTFS). The Client must be configured on the terminal, active, and pro-
vide the data to the GPS module through the standard COM port.
Powering the GPS Module
The GPS module powers on automatically when accessed by a software application and powers off
automatically when that software application closes. You cannot manually power on and off the GPS
module.
Communication Ports
There are two ways to access the GPS module: through the actual COM port (COM7) or the GPS Inter-
mediate Driver. The method you use depends on the software application you are using. If the software
application requires the actual COM Port, set the operating system to use COM7. If the software applica-
tion requires the GPS Intermediate Driver, set the operating system to use the GPS Intermediate Driver.
Selecting the Port
1. Tap > Settings > System > External GPS.
2. In the GPS program port: drop-down list, select COM7 or GPD1
(the GPS Intermediate Driver) as required by the application.
Note: The GPS program port and hardware port cannot be the same value.
3. Tap OK to save.
COM7
COM Port 7 can be set to the following baud rates:
• 4800
• 9600 (Default baud rate. Recommended for optimal performance.)
• 19200
• 38400
Other baud rates are not possible. The baud rate selected on COM7 is the actual baud rate with which
the GPS communicates.

DRAFT COPY 11/11/11
GPS Intermediate Driver
When the first user of GPD1 opens the port, the GPS Intermediate Driver opens the COM7 port. The
GPS Intermediate Driver allows multiple applications to open GPD1, and the GPS data is broadcast to
all open ports.
When the GPSID driver is in use, the COM7 port is allocated to GPSID as READ|WRITE (COM7 is still
available for access mode of 0).

HomeBase Device (Model
7800-HB)
Overview
The Dolphin 7800 HomeBase (Model 7800-HB) is a charging and communication cradle that supports
USB Hi-Speed 2.0v communication, which enables the terminal to interface with the majority of PC-
based enterprise systems. The HomeBase also contains an auxiliary battery well that charges a spare
Honeywell standard or extended battery pack.
The 7800-HB charger is designed for use with battery standard pack models 7800-BTSC or 7800-
BTSCW (Li-ion 3.7 V, 8.9 watt hour) and extended battery pack 7800-BTXC or 7800-BTXCW ( Li-ion 3.7
V, 14.8 watt hour) manufactured for Honeywell International Inc., and with Dolphin 7800 model terminals.
Warning! The HomeBase is not designed for use in hazardous locations.
We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of any non-Honeywell
peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Unpacking the HomeBase
Open the shipping box and inspect the package to see that the following standard items are included:
• One Dolphin HomeBase, model 7800-HB
• One power supply (see Power on page 12-4)

tative. Keep the original packaging in case you need to return the HomeBase for service or to store the
HomeBase while not in use.
Optional Equipment
A standard USB (Type A to B) cable is required when using the HomeBase for communication between
the terminal and a host device.
Charging Overview
The base provides power to the intelligent battery charging system in all Dolphin terminals that senses
when a full charge has been achieved and switches to a trickle charge to maintain the full charge. The
base completes a full charge of the main battery pack installed in the terminal seated in the terminal well
in 4 hours for the standard battery or 6 hours for the extended battery. The base completes a full charge
of the battery pack in the Auxiliary Battery Well (see page 12-2) in 4 hours for the standard battery or 6
hours for the extended battery.
Note: Before attempting to use, charge, or replace the battery in the terminal, you should read the Guidelines for
Battery Pack Use and Disposal on page 3-13.
Communications
Reliable data communications at speeds of up to 480 Mbps can be transmitted by the base through the
Hi-Speed USB port.
Note: These bases cannot be physically connected to each other - sometimes referred to as “daisy-chained”.
DRAFT COPY 11/11/11

Convenient Storage
The intelligent battery charging system makes this base a safe and convenient storage receptacle for
your Dolphin terminal.
Capacity
The base holds one terminal and features an auxiliary battery well behind the terminal well that can
charge a battery pack independently of the terminal well. This means that one base can charge two bat-
tery packs: the one installed in the terminal and a spare.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.

Charging the Main Battery
The base provides power to the Dolphin terminal and allows the charg-
ing of the terminal’s main battery. The intelligent battery charging sys-
tem incorporated into all Dolphin terminals prevents overcharging, which
means that Dolphin terminals may be stored in the base indefinitely
without damage to the terminals, battery packs, or the base. The base
completes a full charge of the main battery pack installed in the terminal
seated in the terminal well in 4 hours for the standard battery or 6 hours
for the extended battery.

Connecting the Dolphin Terminal to the Net Base
By default, the Dolphin terminal is configured to obtain IP addresses automatically using a DHCP server.
This means that in most cases, you would simply plug-and-play the unit.
1. Verify the base has power. If the Power/Dock LEDs are not illuminated, see Connecting Power to
the Net Base on page 16-4.
2. Plug the CAT-5 Ethernet cable into one of the RJ45 connectors on the back of the Net Base.
3. Plug the Ethernet cable into the network.
4. Insert the Dolphin into one of the terminal wells. The DOCK LED for the well changes from red to
green and the connection icon on the Dolphin’s title bar changes from
x
to .
5. By default, the DHCP server assigns a unique IP address to each of the Dolphin terminals docked in
the Net Base. This IP address can be used by any application on the Dolphin terminal.
Note: Instead of using the default for DHCP assigned IP addresses, the Dolphin terminal can use a statically
assigned IP address. See standard Microsoft Windows Mobile documentation for how to assign a static IP
address to a network adapter. In this case, set a static IP address for the adapter named "SMC95001 USB2.0
FAST Ethernet
Drive".
Displaying the Net Base Terminal Well and Dolphin IP Address
Once the Dolphin terminal establishes communication, it uses the unique IP address assigned to the ter-
minal well it is docked in on the Net Base. If four Dolphin terminals are successfully connected, then four
different IP addresses are assigned to the adapter associated with the Dolphin terminal.
1. Tap > Power Tools > Network Utilities > IPConfig.
2. Change the Adapter to SMC95001.
3. On the Input tab, tap the Display full configuration button.
4. The Dolphin terminal retrieves and displays the IP configuration for the entire Dolphin terminal and
the Net Base terminal well where the Dolphin is docked.
5. Locate the IpAddress field in the IP configuration list.
Mounting the Net Base
Set the Net Base on a dry, stable surface, such as a desktop or workbench near an electrical outlet. Be
sure to provide enough workspace with good lighting for the user to view and operate the Dolphin termi-
nal while it is in the Net Base. When choosing a location, bear in mind that the mounting location must
allow users easy access to the terminal wells, the Ethernet ports, and the power jack.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems with your QuadCharger device, refer to chart below for possible solutions.
If problems persist, please contact Honeywell Technical Support.
Problem Issue
The Status LED does not come on when I
insert a battery pack.
Check the power connections; make sure the Power cable is
inserted into the Power supply connector 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 flashes red without a
battery in the charging slot.
If a battery is in failuare mode (flashing red LED), and that
battery is removed from the charging slot, the slot does not
reset and will continue to flash red. To reset the slot and stop
the flashing red LED, insert a known good battery into the slot
or recycle the power to the QuadCharger.
