Dolphin 6110s ship with a screen protector already installed over the touch screen lens
to help prevent damage to the touch screen. Do NOT remove this screen protector before
initial use. Honeywell recommends using screen protectors, especially for applications
that require high volume interfacing with the touch screen. For more information, see
Using Screen Protectors on page 3-3. You can purchase additional screen protectors by
contacting your Honeywell sales representative.
For touch screen input, use the stylus included with the terminal or your finger. The

method you choose depends on which one is most appropriate for your application.
While there is a great deal of variation in different applications, you generally achieve
greater accuracy with the stylus for buttons or icons that are close together.
Use of objects, such as paper clips, pencils, or ink pens on the touch screen can damage
the input panel and may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Display Backlight
The intensity of the backlight of the touch screen display may be changed, and the backlight may be
programmed to turn off after the terminal has been idle for a specified period of time.
To adjust the intensity of the backlight while on battery power, tap Start > Settings > Control Panel >
double tap Backlight.
Screen Backlight - Battery/External Power
Move the slider to adjust the screen backlight while on battery power.
You may turn the screen backlight off if the device is not used for a
designated period of time by checking the option and designating the
desired time period.
You may also turn on the screen backlight when a button is pressed or the
screen is tapped by selecting the appropriate checkbox.
Note: Using the backlight option while on battery power substantially reduces
battery life.
You may make the same changes when on external power by tapping the
External tab.
Keyboard Backlight
To turn on the keypad backlight, check the checkbox.
The duration of backlight of keypad synchronizes with L D backlight’s.
Using Screen Protectors
Honeywell defines proper use of the terminal touch panel display as using a
screen protector and proper stylus. Screen protectors maintain the ongoing
integrity (i.e., prevent scratching) of the touch panel, which is why their use is
recommended for applications that require a high to medium level of interface
with the touch panel.
Honeywell continues to advocate the use of screen protectors on all Dolphin
terminals. We recommend implementing a screen protector replacement program to ensure that screen
protectors are replaced periodically when signs of damage/wear are noticeable. For general use, we
recommend replacing the screen protector every thirty (30) days. However, replacement cycles vary
according to the average level of touch panel use in your application.
Replacement screen protectors can be purchased directly from Honeywell. Contact a Honeywell sales
representative for details.
Honeywell also mandates use of a proper stylus, which is one that has a stylus tip radius of no less than
0.8mm. Use of the Honeywell stylus included with the terminal is recommended at all times.
Honeywell’s warranty policy covers wear on the touch panel for the first 12 months provided that a screen
protector is applied and an approved stylus is used for the 12-month duration covered by the warranty.

Removing the Screen Protector
Dolphin 6110s ship with a touch screen protector already installed. To replace the screen protector, you
must remove the one already installed.
1. Press the red Power button to suspend
2. Using a strong, flat, plastic card (e.g., credit card) wedge the edge of the card under the existing
screen protector. Catch the edge of the screen protector and pull it up and away from the touch
panel.
Note: If you have one, you can also use the small plastic squeegees designed for touch panels.
3. Wipe the screen with a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth.
Note: Use ionized air, if available, to blow additional dirt or particles off the touch panel.

3-5
Installing Your Screen Protector

Hand Strap
The Dolphin 6110 comes with an adjustable, elastic hand strap. The strap is attached to the
device with the two small screws. It is threaded through the slot on the bottom of the back of
the unit.
Keep in mind that the hand strap covers the battery. When you want to replace the battery, you
will need to adjust the hand strap accordingly.
Finger Saddle
This is a slightly depressed and angled area of the back housing that is designed to cradle or
“saddle” your finger while holding the terminal. This unique ergonomic design makes the
terminal comfortable to hold and helps prevent you from accidentally dropping the terminal.
Installed Battery
For information about installing the battery, see Changing the Battery Pack on page 3-13. For
information about battery power, see Battery Power on page 3-12.
Speaker
The integrated speaker sounds audio signals as you scan bar code labels and enter data, but
emits no ambient noise on system activity (i.e., processor, memory access, radio traffic, etc.).
The speaker can also be used for playing sounds (e.g., WAV or MP3 files).
The speaker meets the following SPL levels at 40cm:
• 500Hz–67db
• 1KHz–72db
• 4KHz–72db

Stylus
Dolphin 6110 terminals ship with a stylus inserted in a loop on the hand strap. Store the stylus in
the hand strap when you’re not using it; see Using the Stylus on page 2-5.
Installing Memory Cards
Note: Honeywell recommends the use of Single Level Cell (SLC) industrial grade microSD or microSDHC memory
cards with Dolphin terminals for maximum performance and durability. Only memory cards purchased directly
from Honeywell are supported. Contact a Honeywell sales representative for additional information on
qualified memory card options.
To install an SD card:
1. Open the access door on the left side.
2. Insert the SD card with the label facing upward.
Note: To remove an installed SD card while the access door is open, tap on the edge lightly to unlock the card; the
card pops out just enough for you to grab its edge and to pull it out.
3. Replace the access door.
