Charging Options

Dolphin terminals ship with the battery significantly discharged of power. Before using a Dolphin
terminal for the first time, charge the battery with a Dolphin charging device for a minimum of 4 hours
for the standard battery and 6 hours for the extended battery. When using the 70e-USB Charge/
Communication cable to charge from a 500mA USB port on a host device, charge the battery for a
minimum of 6 hours for the standard battery and 8 hours for the extended battery.
When the main battery is installed in the terminal, use one of the following:
• Dolphin 70e Black HomeBase Device (Model
• Dolphin 70e Black ChargeBase Device (Model
• Dolphin 70e Black USB Charge/Communication Cable (Model 70e-USB ADAPTERKIT),
When the main battery is not installed in the terminal:
• Place the battery pack in the
70e-HB).

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 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.
