1.6 Safety Precautions
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the products from
damage.

To avoid electric shock, always disconnect the power from your CompactPCI
chassis before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the CPU board or
other boards while the CompactPCI chassis is powered.

Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The sudden rush
of power as you connect a jumper or install a board may damage sensitive elec -
tronic components.

Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before you touch your CPU
board. Be particularly careful not to touch the chip connectors.

Modern integrated electronic devices, especially CPUs and memory chips, are
extremely sensitive to static electric discharges and fields. Keep the board in its
anti-static packaging when it is not installed in the chassis, and place it on a
static dissipative mat when you are working with it. Wear a grounding wrist strap
for continuous protection.
