Cleaning or replacing the cradle contact pins The contact pins on the vehicle cradle are exposed to contamination and stress when the computer is installed and removed from the cradle during normal daily operation. The pins were designed to be cleaned or replaced as required. 
If the pins become dirty, they can be removed and cleaned with an electrical contact cleaner or replaced. The power and ground pins are pins 3 and 8 respectively. When charging problems are encountered and replacement pins are not available, other pins in the contact assembly can be used to field fix the unit until replacement parts are available. Note Pin 8 on RF units is an RF connector and is not user replaceable. Contact your support desk for information about replacing this RF connector. To remove and clean the contact pins
If a pin is bent or cannot be cleaned, contact your organization's
help desk to obtain a replacement pin.
Use Internal Landline Modem The modem is on COM3 and it can use either IRQ 4 or 11. Make sure COM3 IRQ is set correctly. Failure to do so may cause some communication programs to lock up. Use the SCU to View or change the IRQ setting. |
