OARD INSTALLATION
The UPS25 uninterruptible power supply module is designed to directly mount on
top or under your RTD PC/104 power supply unit. This chapter tells you step-by-
step how to install your UPS25 into your system.
Board installation
Keep your board in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it to your
system! When removing it from the bag, hold the board at the edges and do not
touch the components or connectors. Please handle the board in an antistatic
environment and use a grounded workbench for testing and handling of your
hardware. Before installing the board in your computer, check the power cabling.
Failure to do so may cause the power supply unit to malfunction or even cause
permanent damage.
General installation guidelines:

Touch the grounded metal housing of your computer to discharge any

antistatic buildup and then remove the board from its antistatic bag.

Hold the board by the edges and install it in an enclosure or place it on the table on an antistatic surface
