Dolphin 60s HomeBase Device (Model D60s-HB)
Overview
The Dolphin 60s HomeBase (Model D60s-HB) is a charging and communication cradle that supports
USB Hi-Speed 2.0v communication, which enables the terminal to interface with the majority of PC-
based enterprise systems. The HomeBase also contains an auxiliary battery well that charges a spare
Honeywell standard or extended battery.
The D60s-HB charger is designed for use with Dolphin 60s model terminals and battery part number
60s-BTEC (Li-ion 3.7 V, 12.358 watt hour), manufactured for Honeywell International Inc.
We recommend use of Honeywell peripherals, power cables, and power adapters. Use of any non-Honeywell
peripherals, cables, or power adapters may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Unpacking the HomeBase
Open the shipping box and inspect the package to see that the following standard items are included:
• One Dolphin HomeBase, model D60s-HB
• One power supply (see
Power on page 12-5)
• One power cord
These items are needed to operate the HomeBase. If any items are missing or anything appears to be
damaged, contact your Customer Account Representative. Keep the original packaging in case you
need to return the HomeBase for service or to store the HomeBase while not in use.
Optional Equipment
A standard USB (Type A to B) cable is required when using the HomeBase for communication between
the terminal and a host device.
Charging Overview
The base provides power to the intelligent battery charging system in all Dolphin terminals that senses
when a full charge has been achieved and switches to a trickle charge to maintain the full charge. The
base completes a full charge of the main battery installed in the terminal seated in the terminal well in
6 hours for the extended battery. The base completes a full charge of the battery pack in the
Auxiliary
Battery Well (see page 12-3) in 6 hours for the extended battery.
Note: Before attempting to use, charge, or replace the battery in the terminal, you should read the Guidelines for
Battery Pack Use and Disposal on page 3-13.
We recommend use of Honeywell Li-ion battery packs. Use of any non-Honeywell battery may result in
damage not covered by the warranty.
Communications
Reliable data communications at speeds of up to 480 Mbps can be transmitted by the base through the
Hi-Speed USB port.
Note: These bases cannot be physically connected to each other - sometimes referred to as “daisy-chained”.
