Unpack and Inspect Checklist
The following table provides a checklist of tasks that must be performed when unpacking
and inspecting your AirSpeed Multi Stream system.
Unpacking Your System
Before you unpack your system, make sure the location is free of clutter and dust. Also,
make sure you have clean power and a VGA monitor nearby.
To unpack your system:
1. Open the box.
2. Unpack your system.
Avid recommends that you keep all packaging materials for at least 90 days. If you need
to return a system to Avid Technology, Inc., the system must be repackaged in its
original packaging material to ensure that there is no damage to the system during
shipment.
3. Remove all of the boxes, and lay them out so you can verify that you have received all of
the components that should have been shipped.
4. Once all of the boxes and components have been unpacked, visually inspect the chassis
to make sure that it is free of all scratches and dents, that there are straight connectors on
the back, and that the power-supply securing screws are not bent.
5. The next step is to verify that you have received all of the items particular to your order.
