2.2 Unpacking
Your serial communication module contains sensitive electronic
components that can be easily damaged by static electricity.
The module should be done 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 module carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling
may cause damage to your module. Be sure there are no shipping and
handing damages on the module before processing.
After opening the 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 socket 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 MODULE IF IT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED.
You are now ready to install your cPCI Module.
