Radio Options
Dolphin 9500/9550 terminals can be configured with one or a combination of the following radios:
• 802.11b
• Bluetooth
Dolphin 9500/9550 terminals can be configured with more than one radio. Bluetooth and 802.11b radios are co-operational,
which means that you can operate one or both radios simultaneously.
Radio Driver Installation
Radio drivers (usually *.cab files) install during the autoinstall whenever the mobile computer is initialized; when first turned on
or after a hard reset. Only the appropriate drivers for your terminal’s radio configuration install. For example, if your terminal is
configured only with an 802.11b radio, only the driver for that radio installs. For more information, see
Autoinstall on page 2-10.
When a single radio installs, its radio driver is powered up automatically after initialization is complete. In general, when more
than one radio installs, the terminal powers up the 802.11b radio.
The Radio Manager
The Radio Manager is a control panel applet through which the radio power driver controls the radio state. It enables you to
choose which radios on the terminal are powered up. When powered up, the radio is transmitting, when powered down, the radio
is not transmitting.
Single Radio Configuration
If your terminal contains a single radio module and its associated driver is installed, the radio operates by itself without any special
configuration made to the terminal.
Multiple Radio Configuration
Configuration of simultaneous radio operation is done during the manufacturing process according to FCC regulations. If multiple
radio modules are installed in your terminal, simultaneous operation must be configured before the radio power driver allows it.
In other words, verify which radio or radios are powered up or down before you begin using the radio or radio combination.
Multiple Radio Operation
The 802.11b radio can operate by itself or simultaneously with Bluetooth radios.
Powering Up a Radio
Requirements
To successfully power up a radio, both the hardware module and the software driver must be installed on the terminal. If the
module is present, the radio appears in the Radio Manager. However if the driver is not installed, you cannot successfully power
up the radio. Attempting to do so produces an error in the Status field that tells you that the driver is not installed.
