    Hi I'm sure we all get this now and then - trying to identify an unknown toughbook model code using the configurator link on this page, only to discover it gives no results perhaps because it's a custom OEM model code specific to one customer.

    So to kick this off, I'm trying to identify a CF-19CHBCNBA. Can anyone tell me it's config details please?

    From what google is telling me, I think it's a Mk 1 CF19 with touchscreen.

    Craig.

    One reason why it is not working for you is because it's only for USA Toughbook. The "A" at the end of it tells me it's a overseas model.

    Good point - 'A' quite possibly means Australia. My existing CF18 and CF29 are both ex-Telstra units and their codes don't resolve in the configurator either.

    Ok this is what I did. I went here CF-19 Tablet - ToughWiki and looked up your model number (CF-19CHBC NBA) . I could not find a "N" so I put in "X" for Wireless ready and "M" for North America and below is what I got

    guess mklym beat me to it :thumbsup:

    C is MK1 (always)
    H is 10.4" TS.
    B is 80 Gb but the important part is the dual antenna connectors. (drives change, yes?)Check your dock.
    C is GPS and Bluetooth (Good One)
    N whatever wireless is used by this Company/country
    B XP Pro.
    A Australia

    So important parts...MK1-TS-Dual connector-GPS/Bluetooth-XP Pro. The rest is superfluous. To me.

    :)
