PCMCIA Card Slot
When removing or installing PCMCIA cards, protect the MX1 internal components from
electrostatic discharge.
Use and operation of the Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA)
device (e.g. PC card) is dependent upon both the type of device installed and the application(s)
running on the computer.
When installed, the PC card will not function properly unless the proper PC card
management software is installed in the PC card/MX1. (See Chapter 4, “System
Configuration” and the “PCMCIA Card Management and LXE DOS Computers
User’s Guide”.) Make sure the proper software is pre-loaded and PC cards are
properly configured.
There is one PC card slot in the MX1 typically used for the PC radio card. If there is a radio
installed in the MX1, there is no slot available for an SRAM card.
When there is no radio installed, the PC card slot can be used for the SRAM card.
Note: Remove the radio card before installing a PC card.

Preparation
If a handle is installed, remove it at this time. LXE recommends that installation of the PC card be
performed on a clean, well-lit surface.
Loosen the installed endcap to allow access to the PC card slots inside the MX1.
Do not remove the endcap, instead, hold it out of the way.
Installation
1. Slide the PC Card, connector side first, into the slot until it seats. Use caution not to pull or
snag the antenna connector on the Radio card, if installed.
2. If the PC Card is difficult to seat in the slot, remove the card, turn it around and re-install.
