The Mobile IntelliBase supplies charging power to the Dolphin terminal so that the
terminal can monitor the charging of its battery pack. This charging method
protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging. Therefore, the Dolphin
terminal may be stored indefinitely in the Mobile IntelliBase without damage to the
terminal, the battery pack, or the Mobile IntelliBase.

To charge a Dolphin terminal, follow these steps:
1. Insert a battery pack into the Dolphin terminal.
2. Place the terminal, imager engine window up and the LCD visible, in the Terminal Well
of the Mobile IntelliBase.
3. Let it glide down into the well until it stops.

The Mobile IntelliBase RS-232 interface allows the Dolphin terminal to
communicate to a personal computer, modem, or any standard RS-232 device
using a standard serial cable and communications software.
communicate to a personal computer, modem, or any standard RS-232 device
using a standard serial cable and communications software.
The IrDA 1.0 software stack is integrated into the Mobile IntelliBase to allow
communication between the cradle and devices such as modems or printers that
are not IrDA ready or do not communicate with a half duplex serial protocol. This
allows any full or half duplex RS-232 device to communicate through the
IntelliBase with no IrDA protocol software. See Tables 2 or 3 for the baud rate
switch settings.
