Communication

To synchronize data between the terminal and the workstation, ActiveSync (version 4.5 or higher) or

Windows Mobile Device Center must be installed and configured for the appropriate communication type

on the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal.

Dolphin terminals ship with ActiveSync already installed. Therefore, if ActiveSync is already installed on

the host workstation, you just need to connect the Dolphin terminal to the host workstation (via Dolphin

peripheral) to initiate communication.

If ActiveSync 4.5 or higher is not installed on the host workstation, you can download and install the most

current version of ActiveSync from www.microsoft.com.

Note: ActiveSync on your Dolphin terminal works with Windows Mobile Device Center 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 Microsoft's Windows Mobile Web site.

When communicating via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center, 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.

• 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 Dolphin terminal supports the following types of communication via ActiveSync through its I/O

Connector (see page 3-11) on the bottom panel:

USB The USB cable and hardware peripherals allow the terminal to communicate with a workstation or

to networked through a USB hub. The Dolphin terminal supports high-speed USB communication

(USB 2.0); maximum data transfer rate is 480 Mbps. The Dolphin terminal defaults to USB

communication out of the box.

RS232 The RS232 cable allows the terminal to communicate with a workstation, modem, or any RS232

device. Maximum data transfer rate is 115 Kbps.

Hardware Requirements for Setup

• Dolphin communication peripheral or cable

• Dolphin power cable from Honeywell

• USB cable (for USB communication)

• Serial cable (for RS232 communication)

Software Requirements for Communication

• To synchronize successfully, ActiveSync (v4.5 or higher) or Windows Mobile Device Center must be

configured for same communication type on both the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal.

Preliminary Draft 1/19/11

ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center must be setup on your workstation

before

you initiate

synchronization from the terminal for the first time.

• Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT (4.0 SP6 or higher), Windows

XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 operating systems.

Setting Up the Host Workstation

Verify that ActiveSync is configured to use the appropriate communication type by clicking File > Con-

nection Settings in the ActiveSync window on your workstation.

Note: You can have both USB and RS232 selected in the software without affecting processing. However, your

hardware setup should use only RS232 or USB, not both.

Communicating with the Dolphin Terminal

After setting up both the workstation and the terminal, ActiveSync connection should be automatic.

1. Connect the Dolphin terminal to a Dolphin communication peripheral.

2. The Dolphin terminal automatically opens ActiveSync to establish a connection.

Synchronizing with the Host Workstation

After setup, synchronization begins automatically whenever the terminal’s mechanical connector con-

nects to a Dolphin peripheral that is connected to a host workstation with ActiveSync installed.

Exploring the Terminal from the Workstation

When the Dolphin terminal and workstation are connected, open the main ActiveSync window (on the

desktop), and click Explore.

Pairing and Trusted Devices

The terminal does support pairing. Pairing happens during general connection setup. Paired devices are

"trusted" devices. This means that there is unrestricted access to all services (including services that

require authorization and authentication).

A connection can exclude pairing. A device that is connected to the terminal but not paired with it is con-

sidered an untrusted device. Content can still be passed to untrusted devices by requiring authorization

with each attempt (for example, with the initialization of a file exchange). The Beam

File method of file transfer can be used to pass a file as an untrusted device; see Transferring Files on

page 10-7.

Working with GPS

Overview

The Dolphin 99EX 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.

Preliminary Draft 1/19/11

11 - 2

3. Tap OK to save.

COM7

COM Port 7 can be set to the following baud rates:

•4800

• 9600 (This is the default baud rate and recommended for optimal GPS functioning.)

• 19200

• 38400

Other baud rates are not possible. The baud rate selected on COM7 is the actual baud rate with which

the GPS will be communicating.

GPS Intermediate Driver

When the first user of GPD1 opens the port, the GPS Intermediate Driver in turn opens port COM7. 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).

Dolphin 99EX HomeBase Device

Overview

As the hub of your Dolphin system, the Dolphin 99EX HomeBase charging and communication cradle

supports both RS232 and USB communications, which make it able to interface with the majority of

PC-based enterprise systems.

Charge Time

The base completes a full charge of the main battery pack installed in the terminal seated in the terminal

well in 4.5 hours for the standard 3.7V battery or 6 hours for the extended 3.7V battery. The base com-

pletes a full charge of the battery pack in the Auxiliary Battery Well (see page 12-2) in 4.5 hours for the

standard 3.7V battery or 6 hours for the extended 3.7V battery.

Charging Process

The base 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 base through the

RS232 serial port. Using the high-Speed USB port, the data transmission rate goes up to 480 Mbps.

Communication

USB

Dolphin terminals support USB communications out of the box.

The base also supports USB communications via the USB port located on the back. The base

acts as a USB device by interfacing the USB signals of the Dolphin terminal to the USB of the

host workstation. Using a standard USB cable, the base’s USB interface allows the Dolphin

terminal to communicate with a workstation.

RS232

The base supports RS232 communications via the RS232 Communications Port located on

the back of the device. This port enables the Dolphin terminal to communicate to a workstation,

modem, or any RS232 device using a standard serial cable and communications software.

Requirements

• A base powered by a power cable and power adapter cable

• For RS232 communications, a serial cable

• For USB communications, a USB cable

• A work station running Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT (4.0

SP6 or higher), Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7.

• ActiveSync (v4.5 or above) or Widows Mobile Device Center on the workstation

Connecting the Communication Cables

1. Plug in the power supply and connect it to the back of the base.

2. Plug the USB or the RS232 communication cable into the back of the base.

3. Connect the communication cable into the back of the workstation.

4. At this point, the hardware is installed and operating. You may need to reboot your workstation to

complete the installation process.

Establishing Communication

USB or RS232 communication with the terminal is usually auto-detected and configured by ActiveSync

or Windows Mobile Device Center based on the communication cable connected. If you are using a

USB cable to connect to the workstation, the sync software sets up a USB connection. If you are using

an RS232 cable, the sync software sets up an RS232 connection.

For more information, see Communication on page 12-7.

Communicating with the Dolphin Terminal

To initiate communications between the Dolphin terminal and peripheral, complete these steps:

1. Insert the Dolphin terminal into the terminal well of the base.

• The DOCK LED illuminates green. If the DOCK LED does not illuminate, make sure that the terminal is

properly seated. You may need to remove and re-insert the terminal.

• The Dolphin terminal activates; if the power is off, the terminal automatically powers on. If the terminal does

not power on, verify that the Honeywell power supply is properly connected to the cradle and plugged into a

functioning outlet.

Preliminary Draft 1/19/11

12 - 8

• If the base is connected to the workstation, the Dolphin terminal automatically opens ActiveSync or the

Windows Mobile Device Center to establish a connection.

2. The base can now transfer data between the terminal and the host device. If communication does

not occur, check the port connections to ensure that the cradle is correctly configured.

Verifying Communication

You can verify that the USB driver is functioning by watching the COMM LED on the USB base. When

the COMM LED illuminates solid green, the base is communicating with the host device.

Verifying Data Transfer

The COMM LED flashes when data is being transferred via the base. For an RS232 connection, the

COMM LED flashes red and green. For a USB connection, the COMM LED does not flash during data

transfer.

RS232 Communications Cables

Connect the base to the host workstation or other device by plugging an RS232 serial cable into the

RS232 Communications Port on the rear of the base. The wiring of your cable depends on whether the

other device is set up as a Data Communications Equipment (DCE) or Data Terminal Equipment (DTE)

device.

The Communication Port is configured as a DCE device. To communicate with a DCE device, use either

a null modem adapter in line with a standard RS232 cable, or a null-modem serial cable. To communi-

cate with a DTE device such as a workstation, use a standard (or straight-through) RS232 cable.

You can make your own cables by following the pin configuration in the chart that follows. To do so, you

must determine if your host RS232 device is 9-pin or 25-pin, and whether it is configured as a DCE or

DTE device.

cifically for a partially connected network. For more details, please refer to the

Best Practices for Partially

Connected Networks

document available at www.honeywellaidc.com.

Establishing Ethernet Communication

Connecting the Dolphin Terminal to the eBase

By default, the Dolphin terminal is configured to obtain IP addresses automatically via 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 LED is not illuminated, see Connecting Power to the

eBase on page 13-5.

2. Plug the CAT-5 Ethernet cable into the RJ45 connector on the back of the eBase.

3. Plug the Ethernet cable into the network.

4. Insert the Dolphin into the terminal well. The DOCK LED for the well changes from red to green and

the connection icon on the Dolphin’s title bar changes from to .

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 "SMSC9500

USB2.0 FAST Ethernet Drive".

Displaying the eBase and Terminal IP Address

Once the Dolphin terminal has be successfully connected to the eBase, the terminal uses the eBase IP

address. This IP address can be used by any application on the Dolphin terminal.

1. Tap

> Power Tools > Network Utilities > IPConfig

2. Change a Adapter to SMC9500.

3. On the Input tab, tap the

Display full configuration

button.

4. The Dolphin terminal retrieves and displays the IP configuration for the entire terminal and eBase.

Locate the

IpAddress

field in the IP configuration list.

Establishing USB Communication

Dolphin terminal’s support USB communication out of the box. The eBase also supports USB communi-

cations using the USB port located on the back panel of the eBase. The eBase acts as a USB device by

interfacing the USB signals of the Dolphin terminal to the USB of the host workstation. Using a standard

USB cable, the ebase’s USB interface allows the Dolphin terminal to communicate with a host worksta-

tion.

Setting Up and Connecting the Dolphin Terminal to the eBase

1. Verify the base has power. If the Power/Dock LED is not illuminated, see Connecting Power to the

eBase on page 13-5.

2. Plug the USB communication cable into the USB port on the back of the eBase.

Note: The Dolphin terminal should always be removed from the eBase when connecting or disconnecting the

USB cable.

3. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the host workstation.

4. Insert the Dolphin terminal in the eBase terminal well. The Power/Dock LED changes to green and

the COMM LED illuminates red.

5. The Dolphin terminal activates and automatically opens ActiveSync to establish a connection.

6. The connection icon in the Dolphin’s navigation bar changes from to it indicate a successful

connection. The eBase can now transfer data between the terminal and the host device.

Mounting

Set the eBase 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 terminal

while it is in the eBase.

When choosing a location, bear in mind that:

• the mounting location must allow users easy access to the Auxiliary Battery Well, and

• the Ethernet and USB ports as well as the power jack face straight out of the rear panel, and you will

most likely want easy access to them in the future.

Powering the Dolphin Terminal

When seated in a base that is connected to the appropriate power source, the Dolphin terminal receives

the power to charge its main battery and run its internal circuitry. Keep the base plugged into the power

source so that the Dolphin terminal battery pack stays fully charged.

Note: Honeywell recommends that you leave the base connected to its power source at all times.

The base is powered via the power connector on the bottom panel; see Bottom Panel on page 14-3.

Both the power and serial connectors are straight out, not at an angle. The base requires a 12 VDC

power input.

Charging the Dolphin Terminal

The base supplies charging power to the Dolphin terminal so that the terminal can monitor the charging

of its battery pack. This charging method protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging.

Therefore, the Dolphin terminal may be stored indefinitely in the base without damage to the terminal,

the battery pack, or the base.

1. Insert a battery pack into the terminal.

2. Slide the terminal, imager window up and the LCD visible, into the terminal well until it stops.

3. When the terminal is properly seated, the DOCK LED on the base illuminates solid green. The

Establishing Communication

The RS232 interface allows the terminal to communicate to a workstation, modem, any standard RS232

device using a standard RS232 and communications software.

Requirements

You need the following equipment:

• A Mobile Base device powered by a power adapter cable

• For RS232 communications, a serial cable

• ActiveSync v4.5 or above or Windows Mobile Device Center on the host workstation

• Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT (4.0 SP6 or higher), Windows

XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 on the host workstation.

Connecting the Communication Cables

Note: You must be using ActiveSync (4.5 or higher) or Windows Mobile Device Center.

1. Plug in the power supply and connect it to the bottom of the base.

2. Plug the RS232 communication cable into the appropriate connector on base.

Preliminary Draft 1/19/11

14 - 7

Establishing ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center Communication

The Dolphin terminal is usually auto-detected and configured by ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device

Center based on the communication cable. The synchronization software automatically sets up an

RS232 connection when you are using an RS232 cable.

For more details, see Communication on page 8-8.

RS232 Communication Cables

Connect the base to the host workstation or other device by plugging an RS232 serial cable into the

RS232 Communications Port on the bottom of the base. Plug the other end of the RS232 serial cable

into the correct port on the host RS232 device. The wiring of your cable depends on whether the other

device is set up as a Data Communications Equipment (DCE) or Data Terminal Equipment (DTE)

device.

The Communication Port is configured as a DCE device. To communicate with a DTE device such as a

workstation, use a standard (or straight-through) RS232 cable. To communicate with a DCE device, use

either a null modem adapter in line with a standard RS232 cable, or a null-modem serial cable.

You can make your own cables by following the pin configuration in the chart that follows. To do so, you

must determine if your host RS232 device is 9-pin or 25-pin, and whether it is configured as a DCE or

DTE device.

Dolphin 99EX QuadCharger Device

Overview

This 4-slot charging station provides intelligent battery management for the rechargable battery packs

used in Dolphin terminals.

Capacity

The charger holds 4 Honeywell 3.7V Li-ion or 3.7V Li-poly batteries.

Charging Time

Charge time is 4.5 hours for the standard 3.7V battery or 6 hours for the extended 3.7V battery.

Charging Process

Each charging slot works independently of the other three. As battery packs charge, the charging cir-

cuitry follows the two-step charging process (CC-CV) that is recommended for Li-ion and Li-poly batter-

ies. The process monitors changes in temperature, current, and voltage and resets the battery pack.

We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion or Li-poly battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result

in damage not covered by the warranty.

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.

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 lights red and stays on

without a battery in the charging slot. An error occurred during the self-diagnostic test for that

particular charging pocket. Call Honeywell Product Service and

request an RMA.

Dolphin 99EX Charge Rack and Net Rack Device

Overview

Note: The information in this chapter applies to both the Dolphin Charge Rack and Dolphin Net Rack unless

otherwise indicated.

You can power and charge the main battery in up to thirty Dolphin terminals using the Charge Rack or

Net Rack. The Net Rack also enables up to thirty Dolphin 99EX mobile computers to communicate with

a host device over an Ethernet network.

Unpacking the Rack

Open the shipping box and inspect the package to see that the following standard items are included:

• One Dolphin Charge Rack or Net Rack

• One power cord

For the Net Rack, you will also need to provide a standard CAT-5 Ethernet network cable. The network

cable is needed to set up and operate the Net Rack. If any items are missing or anything appears to be

damaged, contact your Customer Account Representative.

We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of any non-Honey-

well peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.

Charge Time

The rack supplies power to the intelligent battery charging system in all Dolphin terminals, which senses

when a full charge has been achieved and switches to a trickle charge to maintain the full charge. As bat-

tery packs charge, the charging circuitry follows the two-step charging process (CC-CV) that is recom-

mended for Li-ion or Li-poly batteries. The process monitors changes in temperature, current, and

voltage.

The rack completes a full charge of the Dolphin’s main battery pack in 4.5 hours for the standard 3.7V

battery or 6 hours for the extended 3.7V battery.

We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion or Li-poly battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may

result in damage not covered by the warranty.

Convenient Storage

Intelligent battery charging makes this rack a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your Dolphin

terminal.

Connecting the Dolphin Terminal to the Net Rack

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 Net Rack has power, see Connecting Power to the Rack on page 18-3.

2. Plug the CAT-5 Ethernet cable into the RJ45 connector on the side of the Net Rack.

3. Plug the Ethernet cable into the network.

4. Insert the Dolphin into one of the terminal wells. The terminal screen turns off and the right LED

illuminates orange indicating a properly seated terminal.

5. By default, the DHCP server assigns a unique IP address to each of the Dolphin terminals docked in

the Net Rack. 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 "SMSC9500 USB2.0

FAST Ethernet Drive".

Mounting the Rack

Mount the rack on a dry, stable surface, near an electrical outlet. Be sure to provide enough workspace

with good lighting for the user to view Dolphin terminal’s LEDs while it is in the rack. When choosing a

location, bear in mind that the mounting location must allow users easy access to the terminal wells, the

Ethernet port (Net Rack only), and the power jack.
