Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to your add-in modules. Always
observe the following precautions when installing or handling an add-in module or
any board assembly.
1.
Do not remove unit from its protective packaging until you’re ready to install it.
2.
Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or component.
If you do not have a wrist strap, maintain grounded contact with the system unit
throughout any procedure requiring ESD protection.
3.
Hold boards by the edges only; do not touch the electronic components or gold
connectors.
4.
After removal, always place the boards on a grounded, static-free surface, ESD
pad or in a proper ESD bag. Do not slide the board over any surface.
WARNING!
Integrated circuits and fiber optic components are
extremely susceptible to electrostatic discharge damage. Do not
handle these components directly unless you are a qualified service
technician and use tools and techniques that conform to accepted
industry practices.
