Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Handling Procedures
and Warnings
Before performing any setup or placement procedures, it is recommended that all clinical staff
read and/or are trained on the precautions outlined in this section.
WARNING: Be sure to take the appropriate Electrostatic
Discharge (ESD) precautions. Disconnect the cables before
moving, cabling, or performing any set up procedures.
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. Such
components are commonly called Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD). Do not touch the
accessible conductive parts or pins for the Connectors marked with the ESD symbol unless ESD
precautionary procedures are used.
