2.1 Anti-s tatic P recautions
WAR NING :
Failure to take ESD precautions during installation may result in
permanent damage to the TANK-820-H61 and severe injury to the
user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the TANK-820-H61. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the TANK-820-H61 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 TANK-820-H61, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
TANK-820-H61.


Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 2.1 .

Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the TANK-820-H61 does not
fall out of the box.
