Chapter 2
Workstation Setup
2.1 Overview
This chapter provides advice setting up your system. If your system is not already fully
integrated with processors, system memory etc., refer to Chapter 4 for details on installing
those specific components.
Caution:
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent such
damage to PCBs (printed circuit boards), it is important to use a grounded wrist strap, handle
all PCBs by their edges and keep them in anti-static bags when not in use.
2.2 Preparing for Setup
Precautions
•
Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Appendix B.
•
Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the workstation from power
surges and voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
•
Allow any drives and power supply modules to cool before touching them.
•
When not servicing, always keep all covers/panels on the system closed to maintain proper
cooling.
