UNPACKING AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Static Electricity
Since static electricity can cause damage to electronic devices, the following precautions should be
taken:
1. Keep the board in its anti-static package, until you are ready to install it.
2. Always touch a grounded surface or wear a grounding wrist strap before removing the board
from its package; this will discharge any static electricity that may have built up in your body.
3. Handle the board by the edges.
Storage Environment
Electronic boards are sensitive devices. Do not handle or store devices near strong electrostatic,
electromagnetic, magnetic or radioactive fields.
Power Supply
Before any installation or setup, ensure that the board is unplugged from power sources or
subsystems.
Unpacking
Follow these recommendations while unpacking:
1. After opening the box, save it as well as the packing material for possible future shipment.
2. Remove the board from its anti-static wrapping and place it on a grounded surface.
3. Inspect the board for damage. If there is any damage or missing items, notify Kontron
immediately.

1. One ePCI-201 SBC.
