Note that the computer must be powered up prior to
connecting signals by the external wiring of the board.
As a basic principle, all connections to the board should only be
made or removed in a powered-down state of all components.
Ensure that no static discharge occurs while handling the
board or while connecting/disconnecting the external cable.
Ensure that the connection cable is properly connected. It
must be seated firmly on the D-Sub connector and must be
tightened with both screws, otherwise proper operation of the
board cannot be guaranteed.
1.1.2 Improper Application
PC plug-in boards for the PCI- or CompactPCI-bus may not be taken
into operation outside of the PC. Never connect the devices with
voltage-carrying parts, especially not with mains voltage.
Make sure that no contact with voltage-carrying parts can happen
by the external wiring of the device. As a basic principle, all
connections should only be made or removed in a powered-down
state.
1.1.3 Unforeseeable Misapplications
The device is not suitable to be used as a children’s toy, in the
household or under unfavourable environmental conditions (e.g. in
the open). Appropriate precautions to avoid any unforeseeable
misapplication must be taken by the user.
