Installation Guide

Introduction

The MC9500-K contains either a non-WAN 
subsystem, an HSPDA WAN subsystem or a CDMA 
WAN subsystem. Any of these subsystems can be 
removed and replaced with another subsystem.

This guide describes how to remove the subsystem 
from an MC9500-K mobile computer and replace it 
with a new subsystem.

Hardware

The kit includes:

• Subsystem

• Two keypad screws

• Four subsystem screws

• Connector removal tool.

Required Equipment

The following equipment is required:

• #0 Phillips screwdriver

ESD and Environment Preparation

Follow proper Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) 
precautions to avoid damage to the device. Proper 
ESD precautions include, but are not limited to, 
working on an ESD mat and ensuring that the operator 
is properly grounded.

Backing Up Data

Prior to removing the subsystem, backup all MC9500-
K data using ActiveSync. Refer to the 

MC9500-K 

Mobile Computer Integrator Guide

 for more 

information.

Remove Existing Subsystem

To remove the existing subsystem:

1.

Press the power button to suspend the MC9500-
K.

2.

Wait for red Decode LED to turn on and then turn 
off.

3.

Unhook the handstrap.

4.

Remove the battery.

5.

Remove and discard the two screws securing the 
keypad.

6.

Slide the keypad down toward the bottom of the 
MC9500-K and then lift.

7.

Align the tabs of the removal tool with the RF 
cable connector.

8.

Slide the tool over the connector so that the two 
lower tabs are below the connector flange and the 
upper tab is above the flange.

9.

Lift the removal tool to disconnect the RF cable 
connector from the subsystem.

Non-WAN Subsystem

WAN Subsystem

10. On the non-WAN subsystem, carefully remove the 

RF cable from the cable channel.

11. On the WAN subsystem, carefully remove the RF 

cable from the cable guides.

12. Bend the RF cable away from the subsystem.

13. Remove and discard the four screws securing the 

subsystem to the housing.

14. Carefully lift the subsystem from the housing to 

access the power harness. Be careful not to pull 
on the RF cable.

15. Disconnect the power harness connector from the 

subsystem.

16. Lift the subsystem out of the housing.

17. Place the subsystem on an ESD protected area. 

Install New Subsystem

To install the new subsystem:

1.

Remove the new subsystem from the ESD 
protective bag. Place the old subsystem into this 
bag and store for future use.

2.

Remove the subsystem label that is taped to the 
new subsystem.

3.

Remove the label backing and place the label in 
battery well as shown below.
