On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne.
•
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 XU870 is removed from the card slot 
prior to boarding aircraft in order to comply with these 
regulations. The XU870 can transmit signals that could 
interfere with various onboard systems and controls. 
While operating a vehicle.
•
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 
offense. 
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
•
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 occurrence, then restart MobiLink.
