Software Requirements

Before you connect the Dolphin terminal to the eBase, make sure you have the most current software
installed. To check the terminal's system information, tap
Applications on the Dolphin Terminal
Applications running on the Dolphin terminal when it is connected to the eBase should be designed spe-
cifically for a partially connected network. For more details, please refer to the Best Practices for Partially
Connected Networks document available at

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
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
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 "SMC95001
USB2.0 FAST Ethernet Drive".
