Dolphin HomeBase Device
Overview
The Dolphin HomeBase device is a charging and communication cradle that supports full-speed USB 1.1 
communication with a workstation. You can also purchase a serial RS-232 HomeBase device.
Battery Charging
The HomeBase device completes a full charge of the main battery pack in less than four hours. 
In addition to charging, the HomeBase device powers the intelligent battery charging system in the 
terminal that protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging. The terminal senses when a 
battery pack is fully charged and automatically switches to a trickle charge that maintains the battery at 
full capacity. 
As a result, terminals may be stored in the HomeBase device indefinitely without damage to the terminals, 
battery packs, or peripherals. 
Communication
The HomeBase device can communicate via USB or serial RS-232. Data transmission for USB is up to 
12 Mbps. Data transmission for serial RS-232 is up to 115 Kbps. 
HomeBase devices cannot be physically connected to each other–sometimes referred to as “daisy-
chaining”–but can be networked together via serial or USB hubs.
Convenient Storage 
The battery charging system makes the HomeBase device a safe and convenient storage receptacle for 
your terminal.
Capacity
The HomeBase device holds one terminal and charges its battery pack. 
Power Supply
The power cable that ships with each unit also powers the HomeBase device.
