software. Refer to Chapters 1 and 2 in the Dolphin User's Guide for more on basic operation of the Dolphin terminal and Chapter

STEP 2: Installing the HomeBase
1. Connect the HomeBase to the host computer or other device by plugging an RS-232
serial cable into the Main Comm Port on the side of the HomeBase.
2. Ensure that both "DIP" switches (located on the back of the HomeBase) are in the "Up"
position (Single and Program position).
3. Connect the power supply to the Dolphin HomeBase. Plug the AC transformer into the
Dolphin HomeBase 12 Volt DC power supply connector.
STEP 3: Charging the main battery pack
The terminal's main power source is a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery which needs to be
charged first.
For maximum battery life, Hand Held Products recommends that you deep cycle the battery
twice before initial use. To deep cycle, insert the battery into the HomeBase auxiliary battery
well. Then, push and hold the Service Aux Batt button for at least 4 seconds. For more
information about battery charging, please consult Chapter 2 of the Dolphin Handheld
Computer/HomeBase User's Guide.
