Dolphin 7600 with GPS

Overview

GPS functionality can be integrated into certain Dolphin 7600 terminals. There's no need to carry multiple
devices to get the job done because the 7600 integrates into one device powerful mobile computing,
wireless full-area voice and data communications, and advanced GPS functionality.

GPS Functionality

The integrated GPS technology allows location tracking of workers and vehicles, providing better
utilization of field assets. Optional mapping and navigation software provides turn-by-turn driving
directions and location information, allowing workers to arrive on time.

Powering the GPS Module

The GPS module is powered by the I/O Connector, which contains a pin that can power out at 5 volts
(5V). In general, this pin is disabled; however, on 7600s with GPS, this pin powers out by default.
I/O Connector
However, even when the pin is set to power out, the I/O Connector will not power the GPS module during:
• The cold boot process. 5V power out is restored after AutoInstall.
• The warm boot process. 5V power out is restored after the
Today Screen
(see page 2-2) appears.
• Suspend. 5V power out is restored immediately upon resume.
