Dolphin CN80 Mobile Computer 27
Duration: Heater Set the length of time (minutes) the heaters stay On at full power
(100%) once the computer detects a quick rise in temperature
(DeltaT value, see above).
The default value is 5 minutes.
Note: The heaters may turn Off before the timer has expired if a
temperature reading indicates the computer is warm enough
or you manually turn Off the heaters by tapping the heater icon
once.
Low battery threshold Set a low battery charge threshold (%) that triggers the computer to
turn Off the heaters to conserve battery power.
The default value is 25%.
Heater enabled temperature Set the temperature (°C) that the computer must fall to before the
system determines cold storage entry and heater use. Once this
temperature is detected, the Chill time starts.
Chill time Set the time limit (minutes) for how long the computer must remain
at or below the defined Heater enable temperature before the
system initiates one of the following actions:
• If in Automatic mode and Preemptive Heating is disabled,
the system turns the heaters on when a cold storage exit is
detected (see DeltaT value).
• If in Automatic mode and Preemptive Heating is enabled,
the system starts the Preemptive Delay Time.
Note: If you remove the computer from cold storage before the Chill
time expires, the system does not turn On the heaters, saving
battery power.
Preemptive Heating Enable or disable Preemptive Heating (pre-heating) when
Automatic mode is enabled. Tap the check box to toggle the feature
On or Off.
Preemptive Duty Cycle Set the percentage of time that the heaters are on during
Preemptive Heating.
Preemptive Delay Time Set the length of time (minutes) that the computer waits after the
Chill time has expired before activating the low power pre-heat
window feature.
Manual/Automatic Tap the button to switch between Automatic mode or Manual
mode. To learn more about the modes, see How Automatic Mode
Works on page 25 and How Manual Mode Works on page 26.
Duration: Scanner heater Set the length of time (seconds) that the scanner window heater is
cycled on.
Duration: LCD heater Set the length of time (seconds) that the touch screen heater is
cycled on.
Fast monitoring interval Set sampling interval time (seconds) used once the computer
detects cold storage entry. Cold storage entry is defined by the
Heater enabled temperature.
Slow monitoring interval Set sampling interval time (seconds) used once the computer
detects cold storage exit (defined by DeltaT value).
Disable temperature Set the temperature limit (°C) that triggers turning off the heater.
Blanking Tap check box to enable or disable heater operation during
scanning.
