Motorola 9500 Satellite Antenna Lock Release Button, Cellular Cassette Connector, Keypad Cover

Satellite Antenna Lock Release Button

This button is located on the top of the phone. When you push this button, it releases the antenna so you can use the satellite phone with the 9570 Portable Dock or attach the Auxiliary Antenna. You may also want to remove the antenna if you spend a lot of time in cellular mode.

Cellular Cassette Connector

Insert an optional Cellular Cassette onto the back of the phone. The Cellular Cassette connector is located underneath the battery compartment cover next to the battery. The Cellular Cassette interfaces with your 9500 Portable Phone so that you can use it on the local cellular network.

Keypad Cover

Rotate and extend the antenna and open the keypad cover to answer an incoming call in satellite mode. If you are in cellular mode, you can just open the keypad cover to answer a call. Close the keypad cover to end a call. When the keypad cover is closed, the exposed keys on the keypad are inactive.

The Display

Your phone’s Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) displays as many as four rows of 16 characters. When your phone has been idle a few seconds, the display’s backlight is turned off.
