Ground yourself using a grounding strap or by holding a grounded
object.
•
Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of your computer chassis
before removing the module from the package.
Caution
Never
touch the exposed pins of connectors.
Remove the module from the package and inspect the module for loose
components or any sign of damage. Notify National Instruments if the
