Preparing for installation
ESD prevention
To prevent electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, wear an ESD wrist
strap before working with the device or any module. Make sure the wrist strap makes good skin
contact and is reliably grounded.

Examining the installation site
The device must be used indoors. To make sure the device operates correctly and to prolong its
service lifetime, the installation site must meet the load-bearing, temperature, humidity, cleanness,
EMI, grounding, power supply, ventilation, and space requirements. As a best practice, reserve a
minimum of 1.2 m (3.94 ft) of clearance between the device and walls or other devices. For more
