IntelliBase/Inte Switch Settings
Powering the Dolphin Terminal
Dolphin charging/communication cradles provide power to the intelligent battery charging system incorporated into Dolphin
terminals. This charging method protects the battery from being damaged by overcharging. Therefore, Dolphin terminals may
be stored indefinitely in the charging/communication cradles without damage to the terminals, battery packs, or peripherals.
To charge a Dolphin terminal, follow these steps:
1. Insert a battery pack into the Dolphin terminal.
2. Place the terminal, imager/laser engine window up and the LCD visible, in the terminal well of the cradle.
3. Let it glide down into the well until it stops.
4. Once the Dolphin terminal is properly seated, the Dock LED on the front of the cradle will be solid GREEN.
Charging Additional Battery Packs in the Inte
The auxiliary battery well located on the back of the Inte allows users to charge and condition a spare battery. Charging
a Dolphin terminal and a spare battery pack can be done simultaneously as the charging slots work independently to control
charging and conditioning of the individual batteries. The Inte senses when a battery pack is fully charged and
automatically switches to trickle charge to maintain the battery at full capacity indefinitely.
To charge a spare battery in the Inte, insert the end of the battery without the locking tab into the bottom of the auxiliary
well opening and snap the battery into place with a hinging motion. Once the battery is inserted, you can use the AUX BATTERY
LED to monitor the charging progress.
Deep-Cycling Batteries
For maximum battery life, HHP recommends that you deep-cycle (service) the battery twice before initial use and then once a
month thereafter.
The Inte is the only Dolphin charging/communication cradle with deep cycling capabilities. Since the Dolphin IntelliBase
and USB HomeBase do not have deep-cycling capabilities, it is recommended that you use the Battery Conditioning Utility
software when using those peripherals or use the Dolphin Quad Battery Charger.
To deep-cycle a battery using the Inte, insert the battery into the auxiliary battery well. Then, press and release the
Condition button. The deep-cycling process takes 8-12 hours depending on the battery’s capacity or state of charge.
See the Battery Management section in Chapter 3 for more information.
Setting Up For Communications
The IntelliBase, and Inte support RS-232 communications through the RS-232 Communications Port located on the back
of the device. The IntelliBase translates the RS-232 signals from the host computer into infrared signals to communicate with the
Dolphin Terminal.
The IntelliBase RS-232 interface allows the Dolphin terminal to communicate to a personal computer, modem, or any standard
RS-232 device using a standard serial cable and communications software.
