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.
1 - 5The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 0.919 W/kg Max. and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.34 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: HD599EXLG and HD599EXLW.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 the 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 no t 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.Honeywell Scanning & Mobility Product Environmental InformationRefer to www.honeywellaidc.com/environmental for the RoHS / REACH / WEEE information.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 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 99EX 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:
1 - 6• 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.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.

2 - 10File Provisioning on the 99EX and 99GX\IPSM\HoneywellThe IPSM folder is the only partition on the 99EX 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\AutoInstallThe 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 7-17), then the program is not automatically re-installed on a hard or soft reset. \HoneywellThe 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\AutoInstallIf 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. 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-ing an upgrade.

3 - 12Using the Touch PanelHoneywell 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 ProtectorDolphin 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 bottom edge of the touch panel. Make sure that the screen protector is flush with each side 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 HousingSome configurations of the 99EX 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® HB wipes• Sani-Cloth® Plus wipes• Sani-Cloth® Bleach wipes• Super Sani-Cloth® wipes• Isopropyl Alcohol wipes (70%)• CaviWipes™•Virex® 256

For information on how to remove the main battery pack from the terminal, see Replacing the Main Battery Pack on page 2-4.Charging TimeThe standard 3.7V Li-poly battery pack requires 4 hours to charge completely before initial use. The extended 3.7V Li-ion 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.!!
3 - 14Battery Error NotificationIf your terminal displays the following indicators, replace the main battery pack with a Honeywell Li-poly or Li-ion 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.• appears in the Title bar at the top of the touch screen.• The General Notification LED flashes red.• A Notification appears on the Tile bar at the bottom of the touch screen.Storing BatteriesTo 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 DisposalThe 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 or Li-poly 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, see Product Service and Repair on page 18-1.• 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. • Excessive discharge can degrade battery performance. Recharge the battery when your terminal indicates low battery power.
3 - 15• 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.Internal Backup BatteryLocated 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 30 minutes of backup time. Note: When removing a battery from the terminal, put the device in Suspend Mode (see page 2-11) before removing the battery door. Once the battery door is removed, wait at least 3 seconds before removing the main battery. This process allows the device to shut down properly and maintains memory during the battery swap.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 30 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.ChargingThe internal backup battery and the RTC battery are powered by the main battery pack. Therefore, charging the internal batteries 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 UseFollow these guidelines to maximize the life of the internal backup battery:• Keep a charged Li-ion or Li-poly 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 PointsWhen 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]
3 - 16There are two DWORD values in this registry entry: MedState and LowState. The default values for these entries are as follows: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 PointsDevelopers 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. You can reset the Value Data from 0 (no warning) to 99 (would nearly always warn). 4.

4 - 4DecodingThe 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 ImagingFull-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 Options on page 4-5. To achieve the best read, the aiming beam should be centered horizontally across the bar code. ALDALD 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 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 CodeThe 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. Project the aiming beam or pattern by pressing and holding one of the following:• the trigger (99GX models only),• the SCAN key (all models) or• one of the terminal’s side buttons (all models).•4. The scan LED lights red. 5. Center the aiming beam over the bar code; see Aiming Options on page 4-5.6. When the bar code is successfully decoded, the decode LED lights green and the terminal beeps.7. The bar code information is entered into the application in use.99EX Models 99GX Models
4 - 5Aiming 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 PatternIf your Dolphin terminal is configured with a 5603 imager, high-vis aimers frame the bar code for more intuitive aiming.

4 - 6Capturing 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.Image PreviewWhen the imaging process is initiated, the touch screen displays a preview of the object. This is a live video image of what the imager is currently viewing. The live video image has a slightly degraded appearance compared to the captured image. This is normal.Scan KeyOn all 99EX terminals, the SCAN key captures images.File FormatsFile 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. CompressionDigital 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 ImageThe 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 one of the following:• the trigger (99GX models only),• the SCAN key (all models) or• one of the terminal’s side buttons (all models).99EX Models 99GX Models
