Important Charging Guidelines 
Source Current Specifications
Battery charging times can be significantly lengthened or charging may not occur if the terminal is drawing more 
currant than is supplied by the charging peripheral (e.g., HomeBase, eBase, Mobile Base, or ChargeBase), USB wall 
charger, or USB Host (e.g., workstation PC).
• The maximum current supplied through a charging peripheral is 2.0A.
• The maximum current supplied by the USB wall charger is 900mA.
• The maximum current supplied by a USB Host can vary from 100mA to 500mA. 
Do not attempt to charge the terminal from a 100mA source. An active Dolphin terminal uses more current than 
supplied by a 100mA source causing the terminal to continue to draw power from the battery. 
Note: Placing the terminal in Suspend mode while charging reduces the current draw of the terminal and shortens the 
charging time of the battery.
To verify the battery is charging, touch All Apps  
Settings 
 > Battery.
Charging a Severely Low or Completely Discharged Battery
Use one of the following options to charge a severely low or completely discharged battery.
• Insert the battery into the auxiliary battery well of the HomeBase. When the auxiliary battery LED on the HomeBase 
turns green, the battery is fully charged.
• Dock the terminal into the charging well of a peripheral (e.g., HomeBase, eBase, Net Base or ChargeBase). The 
terminal starts to boot as soon as power is supplied by the base. To prevent the possible loss of unsaved data, do not 
remove the terminal from the base until the battery has sufficiently charged.

• Charge the terminal from a wall power outlet using the USB Charge/Communication Cable and power supply provided 
with your terminal. As the battery charges, the general notification LED cycles through green, red, amber and off. The 
LED continues to cycle until the battery reaches a safe charge threshold and the terminal begins to boot. The length 
of time before the battery reaches a safe charge threshold varies depending on the extent of the battery discharge. If 
the general notification LED does not start to cycle after approximately 5 seconds when power is applied, press the 
Power button once.
• Charge the terminal from a USB host device (PC) using the USB Charge/Communication Cable. As the battery 
charges, the general notification LED cycles through green, red, amber and off. The LED continues to cycle until the 
battery reaches a safe charge threshold and the terminal begins to boot. The length of time before the battery reaches 
a safe charge threshold varies depending on the extent of the initial battery discharge level and the current supplied 
by the USB charging source. If the general notification LED does not start to cycle after approximately 5 seconds when 
power is applied, press the Power button once. 
Inadequate source current may interfere with effective battery charging; see 
3-10 for additional information. 
Managing Battery Power
Letting the battery become fully discharged causes the terminal to lose all data in RAM. Honeywell recommends, you keep 
a charged battery in the terminal at all times to help prevent data loss. Removing the battery from the terminal erases all 
non-persistent memory.
When the terminal is running on battery power (as opposed to external power), warnings are displayed when the battery 
reaches critical and low battery points.
Battery Charge Status
Symptom
Severely Low
Pressing the Power button does not wake the terminal from Suspend mode. The 
general notification LED may flash once when the Power button is pressed.
Completely Discharged
Pressing the Power button does not wake the device and the general notification LED 
remains off.
