MC9094 Service Verification
MC9094 phone and data services require a live SIM card, obtained from a service provider, installed in the
MC9094 phone/mobile computer. The SIM card has embedded circuitry on one side of its surface which, when
inserted into a MC9094 phone, provides phone service on an EDGE/GPRS network. The SIM card provides a
phone number, determines the features or services available to the subscriber and identifies the subscriber to the
network.
In addition to SIM card installation, various settings may be required for the mobile computer to operate as a phone
with data connection features.
