Airplane Mode

When EXO is being placed in an environment with no connectivity or an environment where radio frequency transmissions might be dangerous, EXO’s Airplane mode lets you disable wireless communication to and from EXO.

When Airplane mode is on, EXO’s notifications and alerts still function, but are not communicated to Blackline Live, and the device does not receive any communications sent from other users or from staff monitoring devices. Events detected while EXO is in Airplane mode are stored on EXO for up to two days, after which EXO starts to overwrite the data, beginning with the oldest events. When Airplane mode is on, it remains on until it is turned off, including through power cycles and longer periods of being powered down.

When Airplane mode is turned off and EXO connects to the network, stored event data is transmitted to Blackline Live. See Understanding Offline Data Storage for G7 Devices for more details.

Note:

If EXO is powered off then powered on while in Airplane mode, you are prompted to confirm that you want Airplane mode to remain on. Select the center button to continue in Airplane mode.

See the Turning Airplane Mode On section for more information on enabling Airplane mode.

Warning:

When airplane mode is on, you cannot use the SOS latch or otherwise call for help using EXO.
