Each of the Coral IPx 500 cards contains circuitry sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Failure to observe safe handling procedures for static-sensitive circuitry may
result in permanent damage to a card.
An anti-static wrist strap, connected to the ground terminal pole and tightened with
the wing nut should be worn while inserting, removing, or handling any card in the
system. Each card is shipped inside an anti-static plastic bag. Cards should be kept in
this bag whenever handling is not required.
Before removing a peripheral card, the I/O connector must first be
disconnected.
After a peripheral card is removed, there must be a waiting period of at least
2 seconds before re-inserting the card; if not, the card will not function
properly.
