ARNING
DO NOT attempt to remove or adjust any component of the PXIe
chassis while the power is on. Ensure the chassis is powered OFF, and
that the correct handling procedure detailed herein is followed when
you remove or install any modules.
C
AUTION
Incorrect or negligent practice during the connection or disconnection
of an RF cable to the RF output port may cause internal damage to the
module.
I
MPORTANT
After a cold boot, wait at least 30 minutes before starting to use the
error detection or pattern generation modules.
Electrostatic discharge protection
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. Instruments
might be damaged when an ESD occurs during transport, storage or use of electronic
components.
The BERTPXIe contains ESD sensitive components. To avoid the damage that an ESD can
cause while in storage, always store the module in the ESD safe bag in which it is shipped.
When handling a BERTPXIe mod
ule, always ensure that you are grounded and wearing a 1 MΩ
resistor-isolated wrist-strap. Do not remove the module from the antistatic packaging until you
are instructed during the installation procedure.
When operating any of the BERTPXIe modules in a PXIe chassis, make sure the chassis, and
all other instruments and test devices are properly grounded to prevent static charge build up.
