Honeywell International Inc. 99EXL00 Manuale Utente

To synchronize data between the terminal and the workstation, ActiveSync (version 4.5 or higher) or 
Windows Mobile Device Center must be installed and configured for the appropriate communication type 
on the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal. 

Dolphin terminals ship with ActiveSync already installed. Therefore, if ActiveSync is already installed on 
the host workstation, you just need to connect the Dolphin terminal to the host workstation (via Dolphin 
peripheral) to initiate communication.

If ActiveSync 4.5 or higher is not installed on the host workstation, you can download and install the most 
current version of ActiveSync from www.microsoft.com.

Note: ActiveSync on your Dolphin terminal works with Windows Mobile Device Center on host workstations running 

Windows Vista or Windows 7 and with ActiveSync on host workstations running Windows XP. For detailed 
information on ActiveSync and WMDC visit Microsoft's Windows Mobile Web site. 

When communicating via ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center, your terminal is designed to be 
connected to the host workstation with a communication peripheral sold/manufactured by Honeywell, such as 
the charge/communication cable. Use of any peripheral not sold/manufactured by Honeywell may cause 
damage not covered by the warranty. 

• Back up and restore your device data. 
• Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and workstation.
• Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For example, you can 

synchronize continually while connected to your workstation or only when you choose the synchronize 
command.

• Select which information types are synchronized, controling how much data is synchronized. For 

example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronized.

The Dolphin terminal supports the following types of communication via ActiveSync through its 

I/O 

Connector

 (see page 3-11) on the bottom panel:

The USB cable and hardware peripherals allow the terminal to communicate with a workstation or 
to networked through a USB hub. The Dolphin terminal supports high-speed USB communication 
(USB 2.0); maximum data transfer rate is 480 Mbps. The Dolphin terminal defaults to USB 
communication out of the box.

The RS232 cable allows the terminal to communicate with a workstation, modem, or any RS232 
device. Maximum data transfer rate is 115 Kbps.

• Dolphin communication peripheral or cable 
• Dolphin power cable from Honeywell
• USB cable (for USB communication)
• Serial cable (for RS232 communication)

• To synchronize successfully, ActiveSync (v4.5 or higher) or Windows Mobile Device Center must be 

configured for same communication type on both the host workstation and the Dolphin terminal.
