Note: The Dolphin 9500 is the only terminal in the Dolphin 9500 Series that can be configured with an integrated Siemens®
GSM/GPRS tri-band radio module for WWAN communications.
Overview
Enabling the GSM/GPRS Radio
The radio driver for GSM is installed and enabled by default after each hard reset. Before using the radio, make sure that the
GSM radio is enabled. For details, see Using the Radio Manager on page 4-15.
Tri-Band Antenna
Dolphin terminals configured with a GSM/GPRS radio feature a tri-band antenna that supports 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz
frequencies for worldwide mobile applications.
Requirements
Using GMS/GPRS on a Dolphin terminal requires a:
• Network subscription to a GSM/GPRS network (you need to know what service providers are in your geographic area), and
• SIM card that has been activated by the network service provider installed on the terminal.
Capabilities
Dolphin terminals with integrated GSM/GPRS radios are optimized for the following two-way voice and data communications:
• GSM voice data ("dial-up")
• SMS (Short Message Service) text messages
• GPRS Class 10 - data transmissions average 40-60 Kbps (wireless network carrier dependent)
GSM Short for Global System for Mobile communications, GSM is an open, non-proprietary wireless WAN system
that is constantly evolving and growing. One of its great strengths is international roaming capability, which
provides standardized dialing in more than 170 countries.
GPRS Short for General Packet Radio Service, GPRS is a non-voice value added service that allows packet-
switched data to be instantly sent and received across mobile telephone networks.

SIM Card Installation
Short for Subscriber Information Module, a SIM card stores the subscriber's personal information, GSM/GPRS radio settings,
security keys, contacts, etc. SIM cards are installed in compatible mobile devices, enabling you to switch devices without losing
personal and setup information.
SIM Card Requirements
Before installing the SIM card:
• The SIM card must be activated by the service provider.
• The terminal must be powered down.
Note: If no SIM card is installed, you can still make emergency phone calls such as 9-1-1, for example.
To Install a SIM Card
On the Dolphin 9500 terminal, access to the SIM card is located under the battery well, which enables easy access to the SIM
card while securing it under an installed battery.
1. Turn off your terminal and lay it face-down on a flat surface.
2. Remove the battery pack; see To Remove the Main Battery Pack on page 2-7.
3. Unscrew the faceplate of the SIM card door. You must use a Torx T6 wrench. You can purchase this wrench from Hand
Held Products, part number 100001700.
4. Insert your SIM card. Make sure the interface on the card is connected to the SIM Card interface in the slot; the beveled
corner is in the upper right corner.

Inbox
Use Inbox to send and receive e-mail messages in either of these ways:
• Synchronize e-mail messages with Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook on your desktop computer.
• Send and receive e-mail messages by connecting directly to an e-mail server through an ISP or a network.
Synchronizing E-mail Messages
E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. You need to enable Inbox synchronization
in ActiveSync. For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop computer.
During synchronization:
• Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on your desktop computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox
on the terminal. By default, you will receive messages from the past three days only, the first 100 lines of each message, and
file attachments of less than 100 KB in size.
Dolphin® 9500 Series User’s Guide-Pre-
liminary Rev (d)
7/10/06

• E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on your desktop computer to be transferred.
• E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on the terminal are transferred to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those
programs.
Note: You can also synchronize e-mail messages with your desktop computer from a remote location. For more information,
see Chapter 7.
Connecting Directly to an E-mail Server
In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop computer, you can send and receive e-mail messages by
connecting to an e-mail server. When you connect the terminal to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the Inbox
folder, messages in the Outbox folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are removed from
the Inbox folder.
Messages received directly from an e-mail server are linked to your e-mail server rather than your desktop computer. When you
delete a message on the terminal, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you connect the terminal to the e-mail
server according to the settings selected in ActiveSync.
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and respond to messages while connected to the e-mail server.
Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on the terminal. When working offline, after you’ve downloaded
new message headers or partial messages, you can disconnect from the e-mail server and then decide which messages to
download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox downloads the complete messages you’ve marked for retrieval and
sends the messages you’ve composed.
Receiving Messages
When you connect to your e-mail server or synchronize with your desktop computer, by default, you’ll receive messages from
the last five days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size. The original
messages remain on the e-mail server or your desktop computer.
You can mark the messages that you want to retrieve in full during your next synchronization or e-mail server connection. In the
message list, tap and hold the message you want to retrieve. On the pop-up menu, tap Mark for Download. The icons in the
Inbox message list give you visual indications of message status.
You specify your downloading preferences when you set up the service or select your synchronization options. You can change
them at any time:
• Change options for Inbox synchronization using ActiveSync options. For more information, see ActiveSync Help.
• Change options for direct e-mail server connections in Inbox on the terminal. Tap Tools and then tap Options. On the Service
tab, tap the service you want to change. Tap and hold the service and select Delete to remove a service.
Using the Message List
Messages you receive are displayed in the message list. By default, the most recently received messages are displayed first in
the list and unread messages are displayed in bold type.

All e-mail addresses entered in the e-mail fields in Contacts appear in the Address Book.
3. Compose your message. To enter preset or frequently used messages, tap My Text and select a message.
4. Tap Send when you’ve finished the message.
If you are working offline, the message is moved to the Outbox folder and will be sent the next time you connect.
5. If you are sending an SMS message and want to know if it was received, tap Edit, Options, and select Request SMS text
message delivery notification before sending the message.
Managing E-mail Messages and Folders
Messages are displayed in one of five folders for each service you have created: Inbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, Outbox, and Sent
Items.
The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the device. The behavior of the Deleted and Sent Items
folders depends on the selected options. To select these options, tap Tools > Options > Message tab.
To move a message to another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message, tap Move to on the pop-up menu, and
select the desired folder.
To create additional folders, tap Tools > Manage Folders.
Folder Behavior with a Direct Connection to an E-mail Server
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4.
ActiveSync
If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook on your desktop computer are automatically synchronized
with the terminal. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create
and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the server.
For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family for
synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the
messages while away from your desktop computer.
SMS
If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.

liminary Rev (d)
7/10/06

POP3
If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the terminal
and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the
terminal Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means
that you will no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the terminal.
IMAP4
If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages
are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from the terminal or desktop computer. This
synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when
connected.
Pocket Internet Explorer
Use Microsoft Pocket Internet Explorer to view Web or WAP pages in either of these ways:
• During synchronization with your desktop computer, download your favorite links and mobile favorites that are stored in the
Mobile Favorites subfolder in Internet Explorer on the desktop computer.

The Mobile Favorites Folder
Purpose
The Mobile Favorites folder was created on your desktop computer when you installed ActiveSync. It enables you to create
Favorite Links on your desktop computer that you can transfer to your Dolphin terminal. Those Favorite Links are then available
for selection when browsing the internet on your terminal.
Process
First, you create your Favorite Links in the Mobile Favorites folder on your desktop computer. Then, the next time you sync your
desktop computer with your terminal, those Mobile Favorites are transferred to the Mobile Favorites folder on to your terminal.
Only items stored in the Mobile Favorites subfolder in the Favorites folder in Internet Explorer on your desktop computer are
synchronized with the Mobile Favorites folder on your terminal.
Note: Unless you mark a Favorite Link as a mobile favorite, only the link downloads to your terminal, and you will need to connect
to your ISP or network to view the content. For more information on synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop
computer.
Creating and Synchronizing Mobile Favorites
If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later on your desktop computer, you can download Mobile Favorites to the
terminal. Synchronizing mobile favorites downloads Web content to your device so that you can view pages while you are
disconnected from your ISP and desktop computer.
Use the Internet Explorer plug-in installed with ActiveSync to create mobile favorites
1. On your desktop computer, open Internet Explorer, click Tools > Create Mobile Favorite.
2. To change the link name, enter a new name in the Name box.
3. Optionally, in Update, select a desired update schedule.

Mobile favorites take up storage memory on the terminal. To minimize the amount of memory used:
• In the settings for the Favorites information type in ActiveSync options, turn off pictures and sounds, or stop specific
mobile favorites from being downloaded to the terminal. For more information, see ActiveSync Help.
• Limit the number of downloaded linked pages. In Internet Explorer on the desktop computer, right-click the mobile
favorite you want to change and then Properties. On the Download tab, specify 0 or 1 for the number of linked pages
you want to download.

Dolphin HomeBase
Overview
As the hub of your Dolphin system, the Dolphin HomeBase charging and communication cradle supports both RS-232 and USB
communications, which make it able to interface with the majority of PC-based enterprise systems. When a terminal is seated in
the HomeBase, its main battery pack charges in less than four hours.
Power
The HomeBase completes a full charge of the main battery pack in less than four hours. The HomeBase also 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.
Communications
Reliable data communications at speeds of up to 115k baud can be transmitted by the HomeBase through the RS-232 serial
port. Using the full-speed USB port, the data transmission rate goes up to 12 Mbps.
HomeBases cannot be physically connected to each other - sometimes referred to as “daisy-chained” - but can be networked
together via a serial or USB hub.
Convenient Storage
Intelligent battery charging makes the Dolphin HomeBase a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your Dolphin terminal.
Capacity
The Dolphin HomeBase holds one terminal and features an auxiliary battery well behind the terminal well that can charges a
battery pack independently of the terminal well. This means that one HomeBase can charge two battery packs: the one installed
in the terminal and a spare.
Use only Dolphin 9500 Series peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. 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 the Dolphin 9500 Series terminals will void your warranty and may result in damage to the Dolphin terminal or
battery.

Dolphin ChargeBase
Overview
The Dolphin ChargeBase is a four-slot charging cradle that can power four Dolphin terminals, and charge their main batteries in
less than four hours.
Charging
The Dolphin ChargeBase completes a full charge of the main battery pack in less than four hours. The ChargeBase also 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.
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.
Convenient Storage
Intelligent battery charging makes the Dolphin ChargeBase a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your Dolphin terminal.
Capacity
The ChargeBase can hold up to four Dolphin terminals. Each charging slot charges each terminal independently of the other
slots.
Use only Dolphin 9500 Series peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. 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 Dolphin 9500 Series terminals will void your warranty and may result in damage to the Dolphin terminal or
battery.

Using the Battery Analyzer
Purpose
Using the Charge/Analyze slot helps you monitor the charge capacity of Li-ion batteries over time.
Location
The battery analyzer is located in the fourth slot - named the Charge/Analyze slot - of the ChargeBase. Only a battery
placed in this slot can be run through an Analyze cycle. This slot contains Battery Capacity LEDs along the right side.
Analyze Cycle
The Analyze cycle is initiated when a battery is placed in the Charge/Analyze slot and the ANALYZE button is
pressed. In an Analyze cycle, batteries are completely discharged, then recharged to capacity. The length of time it
takes for a battery to complete the Analyze cycle varies depending on the initial state of the battery’s charge. Minimum
time is 8 hours, maximum time is 12 hours.
Battery Capacity LEDs
The Battery Capacity LEDs are located along the right side of the Charge/Analyze slot. Each LED equates to 10%
battery capacity. These LEDs display the capacity of the battery at the end of the Analyze cycle. Battery capacity is
displayed as a percentage of measured capacity/rated capacity.
Status LED
The Charge/Analyze slot also contains a standard status LED in the upper, left corner of the slot. When this slot is
used for regular charging, this LED operates in the usual manner; see Status LEDs on page 15-2.
When this slot is being used to analyze a battery, the Status LED functions as follows:
To Analyze a Battery
1. Insert the battery into the Charge/Analyze slot (the fourth).
2. Press the ANALYZE button. The Status LED flashes orange to indicate that the analyzing cycle has begun.
The Dolphin QuadCharger is accumulating battery pack information during the entire Analyze cycle. Do NOT remove the battery
until the cycle has been completed.
3. Upon completion of the Analyze cycle, the Status LED lights solid green, and the Battery Capacity Indicator LEDs display
the battery’s capacity.
You can verify a battery’s capacity by installing the battery in a terminal and checking the power; see Power on page 5-10.
Status LED color Indicates that the battery in the slot…
Solid Green Has completed the Analyze cycle.
Flashing Orange Is being analyzed.
