SECTION 3 - INSTALLATION
INTRODUCTION
This section explains how to install the IMFEC11/12 high level
analog input (FEC) module.
Do not proceed
with operation
until reading, understanding and doing the steps in the order
in which they appear.
SPECIAL HANDLING
Use the static grounding wrist strap when installing and remov-
ing modules. Static discharge may damage static sensitive
devices on modules in the cabinet. Use grounded equipment
and static safe practices when working with static sensitive
devices. Observe these steps when handling electronic cir-
cuitry:
NOTE: Always use Elsag Bailey’s field static kit (part number
1948385
1 - consisting of two wrist straps, ground cord assembly,
alligator clip, and static dissipating work surface) when working with
static sensitive devices. The kit is designed to connect the techni-
cian and the static dissipating work surface to the same ground point
to prevent damage to the static sensitive devices by electrostatic dis-
charge.
1.
Use Static Shielding Bag.
Keep the module in the static
shielding bag until you are ready to install it in the system.
Save the bag for future use.
2.
Ground Bags Before Opening.
Before opening a bag con-
taining an assembly with static sensitive devices, touch it to
the equipment housing or ground to equalize charges.
3.
Avoid Touching Circuitry.
Handle assemblies by the
edges; avoid touching the circuitry.
4.
Avoid Partial Connection of Static Sensitive Devices.
Verify that all devices connected to the modules are properly
grounded before using them.
5.
Ground Test Equipment.
6.
Use an Antistatic Field Service Vacuum.
Remove dust
from the modules if necessary.
7.
Use a Grounded Wrist Strap.
Connect the wrist strap to
the appropriate grounding plug on the power entry panel. The
grounding plug is connected to the cabinet chassis ground.
