Unpacking and inspecting the equipment
Unpack the equipment and inspect it for damage. When you unpack, follow
these general precautions recommended by computer and telephone equipment
manufacturers:
■
Remove items that generate static charge from the installation site.
■
Use antistatic spray if the site is carpeted.
■
Ground yourself before handling any equipment.
■
Remove the equipment carefully from its packaging.
■
Visually inspect the equipment for obvious faults or damage.
You must immediately report any damaged component to your sales
representative and the carrier who delivered the equipment.
■
Hold any non-enclosed circuit cards by their non-conducting edges, and
keep them in their antistatic bags until you are ready for to install them.
■
Do not stack the non-enclosed circuit cards on top of each other.
Taking inventory
After you unpack and visually inspect the equipment, and before you begin
installation, verify that all the equipment is at the site. Check equipment received
against the shipping documents. Report any shortages to your sales
representative immediately.
