⚠️ Before You Begin
Transmission may be blocked for reasons such as:

- PPR operation is not allowed (PprOK is fake). The ability for PPR system access is not enabled for this EFIN.
- Transmit and update operations are not allowed (UtsOK is fake). It usually happens when you don't have a valid credit card on file.
- Login age rejected (Previous SureFire version).
- Minimum version required: You must use SureFire xx.xx or higher to stream. This is the minimum version you can stream.
- Invalid entry: Your Entry is invalid. This EFIN has not been entered into our customer database or the EFIN was once entered, but has since changed.
