Removing and installing input cards
CAUTION
HBM uses state
-
of
-
the
-
art electronic components in its equipment. These
electronic components can be damaged by discharge of static electricity
(ESD). ESD damage is quite easy to induce, often hard to detect and
always costly. Therefore, we must emphasize the importance of ESD
preventions when handling a GEN3t system, its connections or a plug
-
in
card.
CAUTION
The GEN3t Portable data recorder is factory
-
calibrated as delivered to the
customer. Swapping, replacing or removing of cards may result in minor
deviations to the original calibration. The GEN3t system should be tested
and, if necessary calibrated, at one
-
year intervals or after any major event
that may affect calibration. When in doubt, consult the local supplier.
