Chapter 2 Installation
2.1 Unpacking
After receiving your PCIE-1756 package, please inspect its contents first.
The package should contain the following items:
• PCIE-1756 DA&C Card
• StartUp or User Manual
• Companion DVD-ROM with DAQNavi drivers included.
The PCIE-1756cards harbor certain electronic components vulnerable to
electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can easily damage the integrated cir-
cuits and certain components if preventive measures are ignored.
Before removing the card from the antistatic plastic bag, you should take
the following precautions to ward off possible ESD damage:
• Touch the metal part of your computer chassis with your hand to dis-
charge the static electricity accumulated on your body. Alternatively,
one can also use a grounding strap.
• Touch the anti-static bag to a metal part of your computer chassis
before opening the bag.
• Take hold of the card only by the metal bracket when removing it out of
the bag.
After taking out the card, you should first:
• Inspect the card for any possible signs of external damage (loose or
damaged components, etc.). If the card is visibly damaged, please
notify our service department or our local sales representative immedi-
ately. Do not install a damaged card into your system.
Also, pay extra caution to the following aspects during installation:
• Avoid physical contact with materials that could hold static electricity
such as plastic, vinyl and Styrofoam.
• Whenever you handle the card, grasp it only by its edges. DO NOT
TOUCH the exposed metal pins of the connector or the electronic com-
ponents. .
Note: Keep the anti-static bag for future use. You might need
the original bag to store the card if you have to remove
the card from a PC or transport it elsewhere.
