2. Installation
2.1 Board Installation
To install a PB-SIO4 piggyback proceed as follows:
• ensure that the safety requirements indicated above are observed
• as required, ensure that the piggyback and carrier board are properly configured
(see appropriate documentation for configuration)
• if required, remove the carrier board and optional adapters from the system
• ensure the proper orientation of the PB-SIO4 to the carrier board before installing
(see appropriate documentation for orientation)
• press the piggyback onto the carrier board until fully seated
Caution!
Switch off all power to the system and ensure that there are NO
external cables connected to the carrier board or to any optional
adapters connected to the carrier board before installing the PB-
SIO4. Failure to do so could endanger your life/health and may
damage your board or system.
ESD Equipment!
Your PB-SIO4 board contains electrostatically sensitive devices.
Please observe the necessary precautions to avoid damage to
your board:
• Discharge your clothing before touching the assembly. Tools
must be discharged before use.
• Do not touch components, connector-pins or traces.
• If working at an anti-static workbench with professional dis-
charging equipment, please do not omit to use it.

Note!
The PB-SIO4 can be installed in any free carrier board position,
and can be combined with any other type of piggyback module on a
carrier board. The only restraint here being the external interfacing
requirements, in particular, what type of cable connection is
required. It is the responsibilty of the system integrator to ensure
proper external interfacing to the PB-SIO4.
