Powering The Homebase; Homebase Serial Connector - Hand Held Products Dolphin 7900 User Manual

Powering the HomeBase

The terminal requires 9.5 Volts DC input for communications and battery charging; the Hand Held Products power cable contains
a power adapter that converts the power source voltage accordingly. Only the power adapter cable from Hand Held Products
converts the voltage appropriately.
We recommend that you leave the Dolphin HomeBase connected to its power source at all times, so that it is always ready to use.
1. Connect the power cable to the DC jack on the rear panel of the HomeBase.
2. Connect the power cable to the power adapter.
3. Plug the power adapter cable into the power source.
4. The Dolphin HomeBase is now powered.
