Pacemakers, Hearing Aids and Other Electrically Powered Devices
Most manufacturers of medical devices adhere to the IEC 601-1-2 standard. This standard requires
devices to operate properly in an EM Field with a strength of 3V/m over a frequency range of 26 to
1000MHz. The maximum allowable field strength emitted by the Dolphin terminal is 0.3V/m according to
Subpart B of Part 1 of the FCC rules. Therefore, the RF from the Dolphin terminal has no effect on medical
devices that meet the IEC specification.
Microwaves
The radio in the Dolphin RF terminal operates on the same frequency band as a microwave oven.
Therefore, if you use a microwave within range of the Dolphin RF terminal you may notice performance
degradation in your wireless network. However, both your microwave and your wireless network will
continue to function. The Dolphin Batch terminal does not contain a radio, and therefore, is not affected
by microwave ovens.

!
!
!
The power supply for Dolphin terminals consists of two types of battery power: the main battery pack
installed on the back panel and the backup battery that resides inside the terminal.
The main battery powers the terminal. The internal backup battery charges off the main battery and
maintains the application data stored in RAM memory for up to 30 minutes when the terminal’s main
battery pack is completely discharged or removed.
Before Initial Use
Terminals are shipped with both batteries discharged of all power. Charge the main battery pack
for a minimum of 4.5 hours before initial use.
Time to Charge
Initial charging time for the main battery pack is 4.5 hours and 8 hours for the internal backup
battery. Connect the terminal to one of the 9000 series charging peripherals to charge; see
Peripherals for the 9900, 9950, and 9951 on page 3-2.
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.
Note: The following warnings apply to 99XXXXX-XXXXXXI units (Hazardous Location rated. See Approvals by
Country on page 1-3.).
Replace only with battery pack type 200002586 manufactured by Honeywell International Incorporated.
Warning: Explosion Hazard. Charge or replace the battery only in an area known to be non-hazardous.
Warning: Explosion Hazard. Do not replace components unless power has been switched off or the area
is known to be non-hazardous.
Warning: Substitution of any components may impair suitability.
Warning: Explosion Hazard. Do not use external connectors in areas known to be hazardous.
Step 3. Boot the Terminal
The terminal begins booting as soon as power is applied and runs by itself. Do NOT press any keys or
