DOCKING YOUR 9555 HANDSET 

The docking process is described below. Connections to the 9555 Handset are made at 2 locations, 
and the Docking Station is designed to self-align all of its electrical connections. Care should be 
taken to avoid using excess force when docking.  

1)

 

Remove protective antenna-socket plug 

Before docking your 9555 Handset, 
it is imperative that you remove 
and discard the rubberized 
packing plug from the antenna 
connector hole on the back of the 
handset. 

Held in by only a friction fit, use a 
small screwdriver to easily remove 
the plug. Failure to remove this plug 
may damage the Docking Station 
antenna connector.  

 

2)

 

Align the Handset’s 

base and connectors 

Rotate the Handset lock counter-
clockwise to open. Next, place the 
base of the Handset into the Docking 
Station as shown. Then, rotate the 
top of the phone back into the cradle.  

 

 

 

 
 

3)

 

Secure the Handset using the lock 

Rotate the Handset lock clockwise 
until it is flush with the Docking 
Station

’s

 body. This will ensure the 

Handset is secure and its 
connections are properly mated.  

The latched connection between 
the Handset and the Dock is 
important for satellite reception 
and ensuring the Handset cannot 
fall out of the Docking Station.
