3 - 2 ONline 10BASE-T Security Module Installation and Operation Guide
Precautionary Procedures
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive devices on circuit
boards. Follow these precautions when you handle the Security Module:
❑ Do not remove the board from its anti-static shielding bag until you
are ready to inspect it.
❑ Handle the board by the faceplate.
Use proper grounding techniques when you install the Security Module.
These techniques include using a foot strap and grounded mat or wearing
a grounded static discharge wrist strap. An alternate method is to touch
the grounded rack or other source of ground just before you handle the
module.
