pose a personal hazard to the user.
Only use the battery for the system for which it is
specified. Do not use a battery in any other manner
outside its intended use in Dolphin terminals and
peripherals.
•
•
Only use the battery with a charging system that has
been qualified with the system per standard IEEE-Std-
1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery or charger
may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other
hazard.
Replace the battery only with another battery that has
been qualified with the system per this standard, IEEE-
Std-1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other

Communication
To synchronize data (e.g., e-mail, contacts, and calendar)
between the terminal and the host workstation (PC):
1. ActiveSync® (version 4.5 or higher) or Windows®
Mobile Device Center (WDMC) must be installed on
your PC. You can download the most current version
of ActiveSync or WDMC from the Microsoft Web site
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=147001).
Note: Dolphin terminals ship with ActiveSync already
installed. ActiveSync on your Dolphin terminal works
with WDMC on PCs running Windows Vista or Windows
7 and with ActiveSync on PCs running Windows XP.
2. The Dolphin terminal and PC must be configured for
the same communication type.
3. Connect the terminal to the PC (using a Dolphin
peripheral) to initiate communication.
For additional information on ActiveSync or Windows
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.
