The TimeProvider and accessories are packaged to protect from normal shock,
vibration, and handling damage.
Unpack and inspect the unit as follows:
1. Wear a properly grounded protective wrist strap or other ESD device.
2. Inspect the container for signs of damage. If the container appears to be
damaged, notify both the carrier and your Symmetricom distributor. Retain the
shipping container and packing material for the carrier to inspect.
3. Open the container, being careful to cut only the packaging tape.
4. Locate and set aside the printed information and paperwork that is included in
the container.
5. Remove the unit from the container and place it on an anti-static surface.
6. Locate and set aside small parts which may be packed in the container.
7. Remove the accessories from the container.
8. Remove the anti-static packaging from the unit and accessories.
9. Verify that the model and item number shown on the shipping list agrees with the
model and item number on the equipment. The item number can be found on a
label affixed to the TimeProvider. Contact your Symmetricom distributor if the
model or item number do not match.
