2.1.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the
HDB-301R may result in permanent damage to the capture box and
severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the capture box. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore
critical that whenever the capture box, or any other electrical component is handled, the
following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
ƒ
Wear an anti-static wristband : Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
ƒ
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.
ƒ
Use an anti-static pad : When configuring the capture box, place it on an
anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the capture box.
ƒ
Only handle the edges of the PCB : When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
2.1.2 Unpacking Precautions
When the capture box is unpacked, please do the following:
ƒ
Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 2.1.1 .
ƒ
Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the capture box does not fall
out of the box.
ƒ
Make sure all the components listed in Section 2.1.3 are present.
