The following steps provide a roadmap of typical usage activities. Use it as a guide and customize it according to your needs. 1 Turn on your laptop power. Remove your Novatel Wireless Data Product from your laptop before you turn on the power. 2 Start MobiLink. MobiLink is the communications software you use to send and receive SMS, and connect to the cellular network. Doubleclick the MobiLink icon on your desktop to start the application. Want to have MobiLink start automatically each time you start your computer? Click Here 3 Insert your Novatel Wireless Data Product. You’ll see the message “No Device Detected” on the MobiLink control panel before you insert your Novatel Wireless Data Product. After you insert it, the message will change to “Initializing Device”. The LED on your Novatel Wireless Data Product will display a solid red light while it searches for available networks. When a network is found and attached to, the light on the LED will begin to flash: green for GPRS, violet for EDGE, blue for UMTS. The LED will light yellow for HSDPA . The message on the MobiLink control panel will change to “Ready”. You’ll find a complete list of LED colors and related states here. 4 Send or receive SMS. Once you are attached to a cellular network, you can send and receive SMS. Check the envelope icon on the MobiLink control panel. It will appear blue when SMS is available and gray when it is not.

Grant Notes
Power output listed is ERP for Part 22 and EIRP for Part 24. SAR compliance has been established in the host product(s) with slot configurations as tested in this filing, and can be used in host product(s) with substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics. When the associated cable and connector are employed, the EUT operates as a mobile device with respect to RF Exposure. For mobile operation, this transmitter is restricted for use with the specific antenna(s) tested for this filing and installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons.. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operate in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. End-users must be provided with specific information required to satisfy RF exposure compliance for all final host devices. The highest reported SAR values are: Part 22 - Body: 0.69 W/kg; Part 24 - Body: .84 W/kg. This device also contains functions that are not operational in U.S. Territories. This filing is only applicable for US operations.
