1.1 DH60 DESCRIPTION
The DH60 mobile computer delivers industry leading bar code reading and wireless
communications in a durable and ergonomic form factor. Intended for use in
warehouses, retail stores, and manufacturing facilities, the DH60 mobile computer
tackles a wide variety of inventory management tasks from simple receiving to the
support of material traceability.
State-of-the-art bar code engines supply two options for the DH60 mobile computer:
• A 2D imager option provides a capture device enabled for a wide range of
Linear, Stacked, and 2D bar codes. Camera technology in this scan engine
reduces the number of failed reads due to damaged and poorly printed bar
codes.
• When quickness and accuracy are preferred, the Laser option displays best in
class speed reading the full range of linear symbols and GS1 DataBar™ codes.
All DH60 mobile computer models are coupled with Datalogic’s patented ‘Green
Spot’ technology for good-read feedback. The visual good-read indicator improves
user feedback by projecting a green spot directly on the code just read. For the
warehouse and manufacturing shop floor this Error proofing technology is intuitive
regardless of how noisy the environment is . In quieter retail environments, the ‘Green
Spot’ technology prevents unwanted intrusion on the consumer experience by
enabling silent scanning.
The DH60 mobile computer utilizes a Laird W i-Fi IEEE 802.11 bgn radio with fast
roaming and PCI compliant encryption levels. This powerful combination ensures
real-time inventory transactions that are secure from unwanted snooping.
The DH60 mobile computer withstands the rigors of everyday use. A full shift battery
keeps operators productive throughout the day with fewer battery exchanges
needed. An IP54 sealing rating and 1.5 m / 5 ft drop specification delivers the
durability needed to survive accidental damage and exposure to mois ture and dirt.
These durability ratings contribute to reduced down time for repairs. For additional
investment protection, warranty for this device can be extended through Datalogic’s
EASEOFCARE program that best suits the installations’ requirement.
Datalogic’s software tools and strategic software alliances fit the DH60 mobile
computer for the business practice. Datalogic’s Desktop and Configuration utilities
offer full control over the device experience. Wavelink® Avalanche enables rapid
deployment and central management of the DH60 installation. For facilities with
1 DH60
2

Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Wavelink’s Terminal Emulation is
available with all four of the most popular emulation modes.
A full line of mobile computing accessories allow for investment flexibility. Single-slot
docks are available for small s tores while four-slot docks and multi-battery chargers
support the largest of warehouses. A pistol grip handle easily converts the DH60
mobile computer into a gun form factor suitable for scan-intensive receiving and
inventories.

NOTE
CAUTION
2.1 CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
The most direct way to charge a DH60 is to connect the device DC jack to a provided
power supply. Alternatively, the DH60 also be charged by the single slot dock or the
four slot dock.
The battery icon on the Taskbar indicates approximate charge level of the battery
and will indicate a low charge when the DH60 needs to be recharged.
use.
Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible
risks or abnormalities and ensures maximum performance.
The battery pack autonomy varies according to many factors, such
as the frequency of barcode scanning, RF usage, battery life,
NOTE
storage, environmental conditi ons, etc.
Don’t insert the wall charger into the DC port when the DH60 is
inserted into the dock.

The status light glows red when the main battery is recharging. It will glow green
when the battery reaches full charge. The status light will flash red when a charging
error is detected (see par. 4.5.1).
The stand-alone battery pack may be recharged outside a DH60 using the spare
battery charging slot on the back of the single slot dock, the four slot dock, or a four
slot battery charger.
It’s recommended to charge batteries before first use.
NOTE
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
CAUTION
Avoid storing batteries for long periods in a state of full charge or very
low charge.
CAUTION
We recommend charging the battery pack every two to three months
to keep its charge at a moderate level to maximize battery life.
The DH60 and spare DH60 batteries should be charged at an ambient
temperature between 10 to 45 °C / 50 to 113 °F to maximize battery
life and run time.
NOTE
Never charge the main device or spare batteries in a closed s pace
where excessive heat can build up.

WARNING
Installing, charging and/or any other action should be done by
authorized personnel and following this manual.
The battery pack may get hot, explode, ignite, and/or cause serious
injury if exposed to abusive conditions.
If the battery pack is replaced with an improper type, there is risk of
explosion and/or fire.
Do not place the battery pack in or near a fire or other heat source;
do not place the battery pack in direct sunlight, or use or store the
battery pack inside unventilated areas in hot weather; do not place
the battery pack in microwave ovens, in clothes dryers, in high
pressure containers, on induction cook surfaces or similar devices.
Doing so may cause the battery pack to generate heat, explode or
ignite. Using the battery pack in this manner may also result in a loss
of performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Use only a Datalogic approved power supply. The use of an
alternative power supply will v oid the product warranty, may cause
product damage and may cause heat, an explosion, or fire.
The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris
and combustible materials or chemica ls.
Do not use the battery pack of this terminal to power devices other
than this mobile computer.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery pack if, while using,
charging or storing the battery pack, the battery pack emits an
unusual smell, feels hot, changes colour or shape, or appears
abnormal in any other way.
Do not short-circuit the battery pack contacts connecting the positive
terminal and negative terminal. This might happen, for example,
when you carry a spare battery pack in your pocket or purse;
accidental short–circuiting can oc cur when a metallic object such as
a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the contacts of the
battery pack (these look like metal strips on the battery pack). Short–
circuiting the terminals may damage the battery pack or the
connecting object.
Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.
Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer,
step on it or otherwise subject it to strong impacts, pressures, or
shocks.

In case of leakage of liquid from the battery, avoid contact with liquid
the skin or eyes. If the contact occurs, immediately wash the affected
area with water and consult a doctor.
Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
Do not expose the battery pack to liquids.
Avoid any knocks or excessive vibrations. If the device or the battery
is dropped, especially on a hard surface, you should take it to the
nearest Authorised Repair Centre for inspection before continuing to
use it.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.
Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.
Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in

In order to maximize operating autonomy, the DH60 checks its
battery level at all times. If the battery is not sufficiently charged,
the DH60 will not turn on when the ON/OFF Power button is
pressed.
NOTE
In this case, either substitute a suffic iently charged battery, insert
the DH60 into a powered cradle, or plug it into a wall c harger.
