3.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the device
may result in permanent damage to the device and severe injury to the
user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the POC-17i/19i Series. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the POC-17i/19i Series is accessed internally, or any other
electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered
to.

Wear an anti-static wristband
: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.

Self-grounding
: - Before handling the board touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.

Use an anti-static pad
: - When configuring the POC-17i/19i Series, place it
on an anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
device.

Only handle the edges of the PCB
: - When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
