1.  Handling Recommendations

To enable development, the ToolStick Base Adapter and daughter cards are distributed without any protective
plastics. To prevent damage to the devices and/or the host PC, please take into consideration the following
recommendations when using the ToolStick:

Never connect or disconnect a daughter card to or from the ToolStick Base Adapter while the Base Adapter is 
connected to a PC.

Always connect and disconnect the ToolStick from the PC by holding the large plastic connector.

Figure 1. Proper Insertion

Avoid directly touching any of the other components.

Figure 2. Improper Insertion

Manipulate mechanical devices on the daughter cards, such as potentiometers, with care to prevent the base 
adapter or daughter card from accidentally dislodging from their socket.
