3. Installation
3.1 Hardware Installation
The board described in this manual can be installed in any CompactPCI backplane slot except
the system master slot. The front panel of the board should be safely secured by screws to the
chassis to avoid loosening of the board through vibration and to ensure correct earth connec-
tion.
Caution!
If your board type is not specifically qualified as being hotswap capable,
switch off the CompactPCI system power before installing the board in a free
CompactPCI slot. Failure to do so could endanger your life or health and may
damage your board or system.
ESD Equipment!
This CompactPCI board contains electrostatically sensitive devices. Please
observe the necessary precautions to avoid damage to your board:
• Discharge your clothing before touching the assembly. Tools must be dis-
charged before use.
• Do not touch components, connector-pins or traces.
• If working at an anti-static workbench with professional discharging
equipment, please do not omit to use it.
