Unpacking

The 7200 series contains sensitive electronic components that can
be easily damaged by static electricity.

The work area should have a grounded anti-static mat. The opera-
tor should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the
same point as the anti-static mat.

Inspect the card module carton for obvious damage. Shipping and
handling may cause damage to the module. Ensure there is no
shipping and handling damage on the module before proceeding.

After opening the card module carton, remove the system module
and place it only on a grounded anti-static surface component side
up.

Again inspect the module for damage. Press down on all the sock-
eted IC's to ensure that they are properly seated. Do this only with
the module place on a firm flat surface.

Note:

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE CARD IF IT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED.

You are now ready to install your 7200 series card.
