Prevent Electrostatic Discharge

Remove Power

ATTENTION

Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or semiconductors if you
touch bus connector pins. Follow these guidelines when you handle the
module.

Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential.
Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device.
Do not touch the bus connector or connector pins.
Do not touch circuit components inside the module.
If available, use a static-safe work station.
When not in use, keep the module in its static-shield box.

ATTENTION

Remove power before removing or inserting this module. When you remove or
insert a module with power applied, an electrical arc may occur. An electrical
arc can cause personal injury or property damage by:

sending an erroneous signal to your system’s field devices, causing

unintended machine motion.

causing an explosion in a hazardous environment.

Electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the module and its
mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical resistance.
