Charging The Main Battery; To Power A Terminal And Charge Its Main Battery; Charging A Spare Battery In The Auxiliary Battery Well - Honeywell Dolphin 99EX User Manual

Charging the Main Battery

The base powers the terminal and fully charges its main battery pack in
4 hours for the standard battery or 6 hours for the extended battery. The
terminal contains an intelligent battery charging system that protects the
battery from being damaged by overcharging. The unit senses when a
battery pack is fully charged and automatically switches to a trickle
charge that maintains the battery at full capacity. Therefore, terminals
may be stored in the base without damage to the terminals, battery
packs, or peripherals.
To check battery power, use the Power system setting; see
page 7-16. For more information about Honeywell batteries, see
Batteries on page 3-13.

To Power a Terminal and Charge its Main Battery

1. Install the battery pack in the terminal; see
Pack on page 2-1.
2. Verify the base has power. If the Power/Dock LED is not
illuminated, see Connecting Power to the HomeBase
3. Slide the terminal into the terminal well. The Power/Dock LED
changes to green. The charging begins immediately if required by
the Dolphin terminal.
Ensure all components are dry prior to mating terminals/batteries with peripheral devices. Mating wet
components may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-Ion or Li-poly battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result
in damage not covered by the warranty.

Charging a Spare Battery in the Auxiliary Battery Well

The auxiliary battery well located on the back of the base charges a spare battery independently of the
terminal well. The Aux Battery LED on the front panel indicates the status of the battery in this well.
Charge time is 4 hours for the standard battery pack or 6 hours for the extended battery pack; see
Auxiliary Battery Well
1. Insert the battery at an angle so the battery pack contacts and the auxiliary well contacts align.
2. Snap the battery into place with a hinging motion. The Aux Battery LED lights orange.
3. Use the AUX Battery LED to monitor the charging progress. The LED lights green when the auxiliary
battery has completed charging and is ready for use.
Note: If the AUX Battery LED flashes red, the internal temperature of the battery is too hot or there is a battery error.
Charge the auxiliary battery in a cooler environment or replace the battery with a new Honeywell Li-ion or Li-
poly battery.
