Hub of the System
As the hub of your Dolphin system, the Dolphin 7200 Compact HomeBase performs
three important functions – battery management, communications and storage.
Battery Management
The Dolphin 7200 Compact HomeBase uses a charging method that senses when the
battery pack is fully charged and then drops to a trickle charge to keep the battery pack
at full capacity. The battery pack does not need to be discharged before recharging
because this method protects the battery from damage caused by overcharging.
The Dolphin 7200 Compact HomeBase provides power to the Dolphin terminal to
enable the terminal to charge its battery.
IrDA Optical Communications
The IR communications port on the Compact HomeBase connects with the IrDA
port on the Dolphin. Reliable data communications at speeds of up to 115 baud can
be transmitted by the HomeBase. With no pins or contacts to break, IrDA will work
reliably for years.
The Dolphin 7200 Compact HomeBase
is not
networkable.
Convenient Storage
The Dolphin 7200 Compact HomeBase is a safe and convenient storage receptacle for
the Dolphin terminal.
