Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge,
which can cause internal damage and affect normal
operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle
this equipment:

Touch a grounded object to discharge potential
static.

Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.

Do not touch connectors or pins on component
boards.

Do not touch circuit components inside the
equipment.

If available, use a static-safe workstation.

When not in use, store the equipment in
appropriate static-safe packaging.

ATTENTION

!

POINT I/O is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis
ground. Use zinc plated, yellow chromated steel DIN rail
to assure proper grounding. Using other DIN rail
materials (e.g. aluminum, plastic, etc.) which can corrode,
oxidize or are poor conductors can result in improper or
intermittent platform grounding.
