2.2 Unpacking
Your cPCI/PCI-7300A card contains sensitive electronic components that can 
be easily damaged by static electricity. 
The card should be placed on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator 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 caus e damage to your module. Be sure there are no shipping and 
handling damages on the module before processing. 
After opening the card module carton, extract 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 socketed IC's to 
make sure 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 cPCI/PCI-7300A.
