Dolphin® 9500 Series User’s Guide-Pre-liminary Rev (d)7/17/061 - 9Dolphin 9500 Terminal GSM (MC-45 and MC-75) R&TTE Compliance StatementNote: Dolphin 9550, Dolphin 9501, and Dolphin 9551 terminals do not support GSM radios.The Hand Held Products Dolphin 9500RF terminals are in conformity with all essential requirements of the R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC). This equipment has been assessed to the following standards as applicable:Pacemakers, Hearing Aids and Other Electrically Powered DevicesMost 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. 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.

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 PackUse only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Hand Held Products. The use of any battery pack not sold/manufactured by Hand Held Products in Dolphin 9500 Series terminals will void your warranty and may result in damage to the Dolphin terminal or battery.The 7.4V, 14.8 watt hour Li-Ion battery pack is the primary power source for the Dolphin. The Li-Ion battery is designed to operate in a temperature range of -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F). For the location of the Li-Ion battery on the terminal, see Battery/Battery Well on page 3-5. Charging OptionsWhen the Li-ion battery is installed in the terminal, use one of the following peripherals:•Dolphin HomeBase (see page 12-1)•Dolphin Mobile Base (see page 13-1)•Dolphin ChargeBase (see page 14-1) or the Dolphin Net Base• Dolphin Mobile Charger - connect the charger to the terminal and vehicle power portNote: Make sure the mechanical connector on the terminal is properly connected to the peripheral and that the peripheral is connected to the appropriate power supply.When the Li-ion battery is not installed in the terminal:• Place the battery pack in the Dolphin QuadCharger - see Charging Batteries in the QuadCharger on page 15-4.• Place the battery pack in the Auxiliary Battery Well of the Dolphin HomeBase (see page 12-5) Charging TimeThe Li-ion battery pack requires four hours to charge completely.Internal Backup BatteryLocated inside the terminal, the backup battery is a 3.6 Volt nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery. The internal backup battery prevents the terminal from being reset if you need to remove and replace the main battery pack. It retains RAM data and allows the real-time clock to remain operational for up to 30 minutes when the main battery pack is removed. If the terminal is left without the main battery pack for more than 30 minutes, the internal backup battery needs to be recharged to function according to its specifications. Note: Data and programs stored in Flash memory are not lost even if the internal backup battery fails. However, you must reset the real-time clock; see Set the Time and Date on page 2-9.ChargingThe internal backup battery is powered by the main battery pack. Therefore, charging the internal backup battery requires that the 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. The initial charge cycle takes approximately eight hours. After that, if the internal backup battery becomes fully discharged of power, it requires a minimum of 10 hours of charging time to function normally.Guidelines for UseFollow these guidelines to maximize the life of the Dolphin’s internal backup battery:• Keep a charged Li-Ion battery pack in the Dolphin terminal. The internal battery prematurely discharges if there is not at least a partially charged battery in the terminal.• Keep the Dolphin terminal connected to power when the terminal is not in use. !

$Dolphin® 9500 Series User’s Guide-Pre-liminary Rev (d)7/10/063 - 11Managing Battery PowerData and files saved on Dolphin terminals may be stored in RAM memory, which does not persist through a hard reset. Therefore, to help prevent data loss, maintain a continuous power supply to the terminal. Letting the backup battery become fully discharged causes the terminal to lose all data in RAM. Therefore, you should keep a charged battery pack in the Dolphin at all times. The internal battery discharges prematurely if there is not at least a partially charged battery in the terminal. When you remove a battery pack, insert another charged battery pack in the Dolphin. Status NotificationsWhen the main battery pack becomes low, the Low Battery Charge icon appears in the Navigation bar. When the battery is critically low, the Critical icon appears. There is also a Low Battery icon that appears when the backup battery is low. If there is no indicator, the battery is adequately charged. For details about these icons, see Status Icons on page 4-20.If the main battery is low and the terminal is in suspend mode, pressing the SCAN or Power button does not wake the Dolphin terminal; you must replace the discharged battery with a fully charged battery.Default Critical and Low Battery PointsDolphin terminals are programmed to display warnings when the battery reaches critical and low battery points. There are two DWORD value registry entries [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power] that allow these warning points to be customized:“CriticalBatt”=a (10%) This sets the Critical Battery point to 10 percent (a hex= 0 decimal). The critical battery setting is the point at which the customer is warned that the battery charge is very low. This warning is posted every 3 minutes until the situation is corrected.“LowBatt”=19 (25%) This sets the Low Battery point to 25 percent (19 hex=25 decimal). The low battery setting is the point at which the user is notified that the battery is low. The user is notified only once for a low battery.Setting Critical and Low Battery PointsDevelopers can reset these parameters in the registry from 0 (no warning) to 99 (would nearly always warn). Warnings do not appear when the terminal is on external power.You can review and set these battery points in the RegEdit Power Tool. 1. Tap Start > Power Tools > RegEdit. 2. Drill-down to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > System > CurrentControlSet > Control > Power.3. Tap the Value Name to change the Value Data. You can reset the Value Data from 0 (no warning) to 99 (would nearly always warn). 4. Tap OK to save changes.For more information about the RegEdit Power Tool, refer to the Dolphin Power Tools User’s Guide available for download at www.handheld.com.$

The Battery tab opens displaying the charge status of both the installed Li-ion battery pack and the NiMH backup battery inside the terminal. Power system settings contains three tabs: Battery, Wireless, and Advanced. For more information, see Power on page 5-10.Storing BatteriesTo maintain optimal battery performance, follow these storage guidelines:• Avoid storing batteries outside the specified range of -4 to 104° F (-20 to 40°C) or in extremely high humidity.• For prolonged storage, do not keep batteries stored in a charger that is connected to a power source. 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.MaintenanceWhen needed, clean the image engine window and the LCD display with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. The terminal can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

4 - 4 Rev (d)7/10/06 Dolphin® 9500 Series User’s Guide-Pre-liminaryUsing the Image EngineThe Dolphin terminal houses a compact image engine that instantly reads popular 1D and 2D bar codes and supports omni-directional aiming and decoding for greater flexibility in real-world settings. The image engine can also capture digital images, such as signatures and pictures of damaged inventory. For more information about the Dolphin 9500 and Dolphin 9550, see Image Engine Options and Specifications on page 2-5.For more information about the Dolphin 9501 and Dolphin 9551, see Laser Engine Specifications on page 11-1.DecodingThe 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 Dolphin 9500/9550 Scanning Position 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 reading linear 1D and PDF417 bar codes, the green 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 Code1. Point the Dolphin terminal directly at the bar code. The imager faces straight out the top panel. 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. 2. Project the aiming beam or pattern by pressing and holding the SCAN key. On the Dolphin 9550 and the Dolphin 9551, you can also press the Scan Trigger, page 3-6.3. The scan LED lights red. 4. Center the aiming beam over the bar code; see Dolphin 9500/9550 Scanning Position Options on page 4-5.5. When the bar code is successfully decoded, the decode LED lights green and the terminal beeps.6. The bar code information is entered into the application in use.The following table contains the available imaging/decoding options for each Dolphin 9500 Series terminal:Terminal 1D 2D Image Capture Aiming Omni-Directional Aiming Engine OptionsDolphin 9500 Y Y Y Green aiming beam or Red High-Vis aiming pat-ternY 5100SR5300SR5100SF Dolphin 9550 YYY YDolphin 9501 Y N N Long-range laser aimer N SE1200HPSE1200LRSE1200ALRDolphin 9551 YNN NScan LEDDecode LED

4 - 6 Rev (d)7/10/06 Dolphin® 9500 Series User’s Guide-Pre-liminaryCapturing ImagesThe 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. Note: The Dolphin 9501 and Dolphin 9551 do not support image capture.Image Preview When the imaging process is initiated, Dolphin touch screens display 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 The SCAN key captures images on both the Dolphin 9500 and Dolphin 9550 terminals. The SCAN key is the only way to capture an image on the Dolphin 9500; however, on the Dolphin 9550, you can also use the Scan Trigger on the pistol-grip handle. Image Files The 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. The image quality and related file size are determined by the data compression method used by the software application used to take images. The average size of the image file is approximately 4-8K. However, the size of the image depends on the content of the image - the more complex the content, the larger the file size. For the highest quality image, take grayscale images.Taking an ImageThe following steps are basic guidelines for taking images:1. Point the Dolphin terminal directly at the object. The imager points straight out the top panel.2. To preview the image, press and hold the SCAN key. On the Dolphin 9550, you can also press and hold the Scan Trigger, page 3-6.3. The touch screen displays a preview of the object, and the decode and scan LEDs light red.4. Adjust the terminal’s position until the object appears on the screen the way you want it to appear in the image.5. Hold the terminal still and release the SCAN key or Scan Trigger. The scan and decode LEDs flash red, the screen flashes, and the captured image appears on the screen. 6. Unless otherwise specified by the application in use, the image is saved to the My Device folder (Start > Programs > File Explorer > My Device). 5300 High-Vis Aiming PatternIf your Dolphin terminal is configured with the 5300 imager, you can enable the aiming pattern for imaging in the Imaging Demo.1. Tap Start > Demos > Imaging Demo > Options menu > Aimer.2. The aiming pattern is now enabled for imaging.Uploading ImagesImage files can be uploaded to a host PC via Microsoft ActiveSync and a Dolphin communication peripheral or your wireless radio connection.

Both radios can be installed but not operate simultaneously.802.11b and GSM/GPRSCo-operational Co-operational radio combinations are those that you can enable and operate simultaneously.Bluetooth and 802.11bBluetooth and GSM/GPRSRadio Driver InstallationRadio drivers install during the autoinstall portion of any hard reset. Only the appropriate drivers for your terminal’s radio configuration install. For more information, see Let Autoinstall Run on page 2-9.When one radio driver installs, its radio is enabled automatically after each hard reset. When more than one radio driver installs, the terminal generally enables the 802.11b radio. However, if a GSM radio is installed, the terminal enables the GSM radio.Using the Radio ManagerThe Radio Manager enables and disables radios and radio combinations. Single Radio If your terminal contains a single radio module and its associated driver is installed, the radio is enabled and operates after each hard reset. Multiple Radio If multiple radio modules are installed in your terminal, you must enable simultaneous operation of the radios in the Radio Manager. (Configuration of simultaneous radio operation is done during the manufacturing process according to FCC regulations.)Multiple Radio GSM and 802.11b are mutually exclusive. While both radios may be installed on the terminal, they cannot operate simultaneously. Therefore, even if you have modules and drivers for both radios installed on your terminal, you will not see GSM and 802.11b together as a radio combination to be enabled in the Radio Manager.Enabling Radios and Radio CombinationsRequirements To successfully enable a radio, its hardware module and software driver must both be installed. If the module is present, the radio appears in the Radio Manager. However if the driver is not installed, you cannot successfully enable the radio.Driver Sequence When working with radio combinations, the Radio Manager enables and disables the radio drivers as necessary and in the proper sequence.
