Operation
Product Damage
High humidity and condensation on the board surface causes short circuits.
Do not operate the board outside the specified environmental limits.
Make sure the board is completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before
applying power.
Damage of Circuits
Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal can damage circuits or
shorten their life.
Before touching the board or electronic components, make sure that you are working in
an ESD-safe environment.
Board Malfunction
Switches marked as “reserved” might carry production-related functions and can cause
the board to malfunction if their setting is changed.
Do not change settings of switches marked as “reserved”. The setting of switches which
are not marked as “reserved” has to be checked and changed before board installation.
Installation
Data Loss
Powering down or removing a board before the operating system or other software
running on the board has been properly shut down may cause corruption of data or file
systems.
Make sure all software is completely shut down before removing power from the board
or removing the board from the chassis.
Product Damage
Only use injector handles for board insertion to avoid damage to the front panel and/or
PCB. Deformation of the front panel can cause an electrical short or other board
malfunction.
Product Damage
Inserting or removing modules with power applied may result in damage to module
components.
Before installing or removing additional devices or modules, read the documentation
that came with the product.
