Taking ESD precautions
CAUTION:
Some components within the library contain static-sensitive parts. To avoid damaging
these parts while performing installation procedures, always observe the following
precautions.
•
Keep the library powered off during all installation procedures.
•
Keep the library power cord plugged into a grounded power outlet, except when
working with AC electrical components.
•
Avoid contact with power supplies, EMI
fi
lters, and AC electrical components
while the library is connected to a power outlet.
•
Use an antistatic wrist strap.
•
Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for
installation.
•
Do not place static-sensitive parts on a metal surface. Place them inside their
protective shipping bag or on an antistatic mat.
•
Avoid touching connectors and other components.
NOTE:
Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative humidity
and are more likely to produce static electricity.
