2.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during installation may result in
permanent damage to the ITDB-100L and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the ITDB-100L. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore
critical that whenever the ITDB-100L or any other electrical component is handled, the
following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
ƒ Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
ƒ Self-grounding: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
ƒ Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the ITDB-100L, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the ITDB-100L.
2.2 Unpacking Precautions
When the ITDB-100L is unpacked, please do the following:
ƒ Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 2.1.
ƒ Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the ITDB-100L does not fall
out of the box.
ƒ Make sure all the components shown in Section 2.3 are present.
