Near Medical and life support equipment
o
Do not operate your modem in any area where medical equipment, life support equipment, or near
any equipment that may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the host
communications device must be turned off. The modem may transmit signals that could interfere
with this equipment.
¾
On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne
o
In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that you must suspend wireless
operations before boarding an airplane. Please ensure that the host device is turned off and your
modem is removed from the card slot prior to boarding aircraft in order to comply with these
regulations. The modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and
controls.
¾
While operating a vehicle
o
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate a wireless data device while in control of a
vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator's control and operation of that vehicle. In
some countries, operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offence.
¾
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
o
Electrical and electronic devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). The MobiLink software
will attempt to re-initialize the device should a substantial electrostatic discharge reset the device. If
the software is not operational after an ESD occurance, then restart MobiLink. See section 2.1.4.
