Micronics C400 System Board Manual
Configuring the Micronic
s C400
Although the Micronics C400 system board is packaged
in materials that are designed to protect it from physical
damage and static electricity, it is important to use care
while unpacking the board and setting it up.
Static Electricity
The Micronics C400 is shipped from the factory in an
anti-static bag. To reduce the possibility of damage from
static discharge, it is important to neutralize any static
charges your body may have accumulated before han-
dling the board.
The best way to do this is to ground yourself using a
special anti-static wrist or ankle strap. If you do not have
an anti-static strap available, touch both of your hands
to a safely grounded object, such as the power supply or
chassis of a computer that is connected to the power
socket. After you have grounded yourself, ground the
Micronics C400 board via one of the solder pads that
surround its mounting holes. When you remove the
Micronics C400 from its packaging, place it on top of the
anti-static bag, and carefully inspect the board for dam-
age which might have occurred during shipment.
Environment Considerations
Make sure the finished computer system is in an area
with good ventilation. The system should not be in direct
sunlight, near heaters, or exposed to moisture, dust, or
dirt.
