•
Ground yourself via a grounding strap or by holding a grounded
object.
•
Touch the anti-static package to a metal part of your computer
chassis before removing the device from the package.
•
Remove the device from the package and inspect the device for
loose components or any other sign of damage. Notify National
Instruments if the device appears damaged in any way. Do not
install a damaged device into your computer.
•
Never touch the exposed pins of connectors.
