■Opening the receiver’s case
Follow the case opening procedures shown here when
you want to install the optional unit UT-122, or replace
the clock battery or internal fuse.
CAUTION!: DISCONNECT the AC power cable
from the receiver before performing any work on the
receiver. Otherwise, there is danger of electric shock
and/or equipment damage.
CAUTION!: The receiver weighs approx. 20 kg
(44 lb). Always have two people available to lift or
turn over the receiver.
qRemove the 6 screws from the rack mounting han-
dles. And remove the rack mounting handles and
side plates.
wRemove the 10 screws from the rear of the receiver
and remove the rear cover.
eRemove the 8 screws from the top of the receiver
and the 6 screws from the sides, then lift up the top
cover.
CAUTION: NEVER HOLD THE MAIN DIAL OR
ANY OTHER KNOBS when lifting the receiver.
This may damage the receiver.

WARNING: DISCONNECT the AC power cable
from the AC outlet before removing the receiver’s
cover.
qRemove the top cover and inside cover as shown

wConnect the UT-122 as shown left.
•Remove the protective paper from the UT-122 in ad-
vance.
eReturn the inside cover and top cover and screws

■Clock backup battery replacement
The IC-R9500 has a lithium backup battery (CR2032)
inside for clock and timer functions. The usual life of
the backup battery is approximately 2 years.
When the backup battery is drained, the receiver re-
ceives normally but cannot retain the current time.
WARNING: DISCONNECT the AC power cable
from the AC outlet before removing the receiver’s
cover.
qRemove the top cover as shown at left page.
wReplace the clock backup battery, located on the
front panel as illustrated at left.

■Fuse replacement
IC-R9500 has two fuses for receiver protection.
AC power input : 4 A (for 100/120 V AC versions)
2 A (for 230/240 V AC versions)
DC output jack : 1 A
If the fuse blows or the receiver stops functioning, find
the sources of the problem, if possible, and replace the
damaged fuse with a new fuse of the same rating.
WARNING: DISCONNECT the AC power cable
from the AC outlet before removing the receiver’s
cover. This can prevent shock to the user or dam-
age to the receiver.
DAC power input fuse The AC power input fuse is held in the [FUSE] holder.
qUnscrew the [FUSE] holder using a standard screw
driver.
wReplace the open fuse with a new, properly rated
one as shown at left.
DDC output fuse When no external DC output is available from [EXT
DC] and ACC connector, the internal fuse may be
open. Replace the fuse in this case.
qRemove the top cover and shield case as shown at

■Remote interface (CI-V) information
DCI-V connection example
The receiver can be connected through an optional
CT-17 CI-V LEVEL CONVERTER to a PC equipped with an
RS-232C port. The Icom Communications Interface-V
(CI-V) controls the receiver.
Up to 4 Icom CI-V transceivers or receivers can be
connected to a PC equipped with an RS-232C port.
See p. 11-14 for configuring the CI-V using set mode.
DData format The CI-V system uses the following data formats.
Data formats differ according to command numbers. A
data area or sub command is added for some com-
mands.

■General
The IC-R9500’s firmware can be updated if desired.
By updating the firmware, new function(s) can be
added and performance parameters improved.
2 methods of firmware update are available; one uses
the USB-Memory, and the other uses a PC.
You can choose either method according to your PC
capabilities.
• When only one PC that is connected to the INTER-
NET is available
➥Refer to ■Preparation (p. 15-3) and ■Firmware
update—USB-Memory (p. 15-4)
• When two or more PCs that are connected to the IN-
TERNET are available and they are connected to a
LAN (Local Area Network)
➥Refer to ■Preparation (p. 15-3) and either
■Firmware update— PC (p. 15-6) or
■Firmware update—USB-Memory (p. 15-4)
Ask your dealer or distributor about how to update the
firmware if you have no PC.
■Caution
RCAUTION!: NEVER turn the receiver power OFF
while updating the firmware.
You can turn the receiver power OFF only when the re-
ceiver display shows that rebooting is required.
If you turn the receiver power OFF, or if a power failure
occurs during updating, the receiver firmware will be
corrupted and you will have to send the receiver back
to the nearest Icom distributor for repair. This type of
repair is out of warranty even if the warranty period is
still valid.
Recommendation!
Backing up the settings and/or memory contents to the
CF card or USB-Memory before starting the firmware
update is recommended.
Settings and/or memory contents will be lost or re-
turned to default settings when the firmware update is
performed.
At least one available USB (2.0 or 1.1) port is
required to copy the downloaded firmware file.
An Ethernet card/board (10 BASE-T/100 BASE TX
compatible) is required when updating the firmware
from the PC.
The USB hub and Ethernet card/board are not sup-
plied by Icom.
Ask your PC dealer about a USB hub and an
Ethernet card/board for details.
