All personnel handling modules should take the following precautions.
1. Keep materials that tend to generate static electricity such as plastics, nylon clothing, and
Styrofoam containers away from all modules.
2. Read all caution and warning labels on bags and shipping cartons before opening any
package.
3. Open all modules, using properly grounded wrist straps and table mats designed to
dissipate static electricity.
4. Soneplex chassis are equipped with a grounding jack for connecting anti-static ground wrist
straps. The jack is located in the front on the right side of the chassis.
5. If possible, wait to remove modules from their protective anti-static packaging until it is
time to install them into a chassis.
6. Never touch module components or connector pins. Handle all modules only by the front
plate, extractor, or by the card edges.
7. Ensure that all modules removed from the chassis or not installed, are properly stored in
anti-static packing material.
