1 • Handling and Installation
1.1 Handling Precautions
CAUTION
Handle the board by the edges or front panel only.
Electronic assemblies use devices that are sensitive to static discharge. Some of the
components assembled on GE products may be sensitive to electrostatic discharge
and damage may occur on boards that are subjected to a high energy electrostatic
field. Observe anti ‐ static procedures when handling these boards. All products
should be in an anti ‐ static plastic bag or conductive foam for storage or shipment.
Work at an approved anti ‐ static workstation when unpacking boards. When the
board is placed on a bench for configuring, etc., it is suggested that conductive
material be inserted under the board to provide a conductive shunt.Unused
boards should be stored in the same protective boxes in which they were shipped.
1.2 Unpacking Procedures
Any precautions found in the shipping container should be observed. All items
should be carefully unpacked and thoroughly inspected for damage that might
have occurred during shipment. The board(s) should be checked for broken
components, damaged printed circuit board(s), heat damage and other visible
contamination. All claims arising from shipping damage should be filed with the
carrier and a complete report sent to GE Technical Support.
Remove the PMC423 from the shipping box and anti ‐ static packaging. Verify that
it is not damaged and that all items are present by referring to the packing list.
