Configuring the D6-IN
Although the D6-IN system board is packaged in protec-
tive materials, it is important to use care while unpack-
ing and setting up.
Static Electricity
The D6-IN is shipped from the factory in an antistatic
bag. To reduce the possibility of damage, it is important
to neutralize any accumulated static charges on your
body before handling the board.
The best way to do this is to ground yourself using a
special wrist or ankle strap. If you do not have a strap, you
should touch both of your hands to a safely grounded
object. After you have grounded yourself, ground the
D6-IN via the solder pads surrounding one of its mount-
ing holes. Once the D6-IN is removed from its packag-
ing, place it on top of the antistatic bag. Carefully inspect
the board for damage which may have occurred during
shipment.
Office Environment
Make sure the finished computer system is in an area
with good ventilation. The system should not be in direct
sunlight, near heaters, or exposed to moisture, dust or
dirt.
