4) AK500+ with SKC calculator doesn’t contain external EEPROM (M95xxx), so it does not need to deal with M95xxx,just read out EIS data and send it to SKC calculator to calculate, and get the key data; The old version AK500 key Pro contains 95XXX which needs to remove chip 95XXX and solder it on the 95XXX adapter.this may be a little complicated than AK500 SKC calculator as you need to know a little of solder.
