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.
8-8
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 > Connection Settings in the ActiveSync window on your workstation.

Working with Wireless Wide Area Networking (WWAN)
Overview
The Dolphin 99EX terminal can be configured with an integrated, embedded GSM/UMTS/GPRS/EDGE
penta-band radio module for WWAN communication.
GSM
Short for Global System for Mobile communications, GSM is an open, non-proprietary wireless
WAN system that is constantly evolving and growing.
HSPA+
Short for High-Speed Download Packet Access, HSPA+ is a non-voice value added service that
allows packet-switched data to be instantly sent and received across mobile telephone networks.
UMTS
Short for Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, UMTS is a non-voice value added service
that allows packet-switched data to be instantly sent and received across mobile telephone
networks.
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.
EDGE
E-GPRS is a non-voice value added service that allows packet-switched data to be instantly sent
and received across mobile telephone networks at a higher data rate than standard GPRS.
Requirements
Using GSM/HSPA+/UMTS/GPRS/EDGE requires a:
• Network subscription to a GSM/HSPA+/UMTS/GPRS/EDGE network (you need to know what service
providers are in your geographic area), and
• An installed SIM card that has been activated by the network service provider (see SIM Card
Installation on page 9-3).
Penta Band Antenna
The GSM radio features an internal antenna that is optimized for power output and receiver sensitivity.
This is an omni-directional antenna.
For the HC-25 radio, there is a unified penta-band antenna that supports 850/900/1800/1900 (GSM/
GPRS/EDGE) and 850/1900/2100 (HSPA+/UMTS) MHz for obtaining GSM service worldwide.

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 provides 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 provide 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 Intermediate 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 application requires the GPS Intermediate Driver, set the operating system to use the GPS Intermediate Driver.
Selecting the Port
1. Tap

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).

Communication
Software Requirements
Before you connect the Dolphin terminal to the Net Base, make sure you have the most current software
installed. To check the terminal’s system information, tap
> Power Tools > SysInfo.
• The Kernel version must be 26.01 or later in terminals running Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5
Classic.
• In terminals running Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 Professional, the kernel version must be 25.01
or later.
Applications on the Dolphin Terminal
Applications running on the Dolphin terminal when it is connected to the Net Base should be designed
specifically for a partially connected network. For more details, please refer to the Best Practices for Partially Connected Networks document available at www.honeywellaidc.com.
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.
16 - 5
Preliminary Draft 1/19/11
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 "SMSC9500 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 terminal 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
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 Dolphin terminal and
the Net Base terminal well where the Dolphin is docked.
5.
Locate the IpAddress field in the IP configuration list.
> Power Tools > Network Utilities > IPConfig.
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 terminal 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.
