  • Page 25 Note: If the battery is low and the terminal is in Suspend Mode, pressing the button does wake the Dolphin 6110 terminal; you must first replace the discharged battery with a fully charged battery or apply A/C power to the terminal. Checking Battery Power Power icons appear in the command bar at the bottom of the window.

  • Page 26: Resetting The Terminal

    • Although your battery can be recharged many times, it will eventually be depleted. Replace it after the battery is unable to hold an adequate charge. • If you are not sure the battery or charger is working properly, send it to Honeywell International or an authorized service center for inspection.

  • Page 27: Changing The Memory Allocation

    Troubleshooting Suspend/Resume If the terminal does not wake when you press the Power button on the Dolphin 6110, the battery might be too low to resume operation. To check, remove the battery and install a fully charged battery or connect the terminal to a Dolphin charging peripheral.
