Unpacking the DXi6700
DXi6700 Installation and Configuration Guide
Taking ESD Precautions
Some components within the DXi6700 system contain static-sensitive parts. To avoid
damaging these parts while performing installation procedures, always observe the
following precautions:
• Keep the DXi6700 system turned off during all installation procedures.
• Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for
installation.
• Do not place static-sensitive parts on a metal surface. Place them inside their
protective shipping bag or on an antistatic mat.
• Avoid touching connectors and other components.
Note:
Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative
humidity and are more likely to produce static electricity.
Unpacking the DXi6700
By following these instructions, you help ensure that the system will continue to be
safeguarded after it arrives at the installation site.
Caution:
Do NOT discard the packing materials after the system is unpacked. The
packaging materials must be used if the system is relocated.
WARNING:
The DXi6700 node and expansion module weighs 72 lbs. (32.7 kg) and
52 lbs. (23.6 kg) respectively. A minimum of two people are required to
lift either chassis.
