ESD
Motorola strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a
conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic
components, such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules,
can be extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). After
removing the component from its protective wrapper or from the system,
place the component flat on a grounded, static-free surface (and, in the case
of a board, component side up). Do not slide the component over any
surface.
Connect any other equipment you will be using. MBX Connectors and Pin Assignments on page
6-12
