Data communication may not be possible if you are within an area with poor signal reception, even though it is within the service area of your telephone service provider. Also note that noise can cause errors and make communication impossible, even though the signal is strong. If this happens, try again.

Never unplug the cables or turn off power while data communication is in progress.

You may not be able to establish a connection with another computer that is also using a portable telephone for communication.

Whenever you disconnect the digital telephone cable from the CASSIOPEIA, wait at least three seconds before you connect it again. Disconnecting the cable and immediately reconnecting it again can make subsequent data communications impossible.

Disconnect the digital telephone cable from the CASSIOPEIA when you are finished with data communication.

See the documentation that comes with your digital telephone for information about its operations.
