Dolphin 70e Black Net Base (Model 70e-NB)

Overview

The Net Base enables up to four Dolphin 70e mobile computers to communicate with a host device over
an Ethernet network. In addition, the Net Base provides a second RJ45 Ethernet port for connection to
an additional device such as a printer, workstation, Net Base, or another Net Base.
The 70e-NB charger is designed for use with Dolphin 70e Black model terminals and battery part
numbers BAT-STANDARD-01 (Li-ion 3.7 V, 6.179 watt hour) and BAT-EXTENDED-01 (Li-ion 3.7 V,
12.358 watt hour), manufactured for Honeywell International Inc.
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.

These items are needed to set up and operate the Net Base. If any items are missing or anything
appears to be damaged, contact your Customer Account Representative. Keep the original packaging in
case you need to return the Net Base for service or to store the Net Base while not in use.
Optional Equipment
A standard CAT-5 Ethernet network cable is required when using the Net Base for communication
between the terminal(s) and a host device over an Ethernet network.
Charging Overview
The base 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
battery packs charge, the charging circuitry follows the two-step charging process (CC-CV) that is
recommended for the battery type. The process monitors changes in temperature, current, and voltage.
The main battery of each terminal charges in 4 hours for the standard battery or 6 hours for the extended
battery.
Note: Before attempting to use, charge, or replace the battery in the terminal, you should read the
Battery Pack Use and Disposal
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
Convenient Storage
Intelligent battery charging system makes this base a safe and convenient storage receptacle for your
Dolphin terminal.
