Unpacking
The 611X E board is shipped in an antistatic package to prevent
electrostatic damage to the board. Electrostatic discharge can damage
several components on the board. To avoid such damage in handling
the board, take the following precautions:
•
Ground yourself via a grounding strap or by holding a grounded
object.
•
Touch the antistatic package to a metal part of your computer
chassis before removing the board from the package.
•
Remove the board from the package and inspect the board for
loose components or any other sign of damage. Notify National
Instruments if the board appears damaged in any way. Do not
install a damaged board into your computer.
•
Never touch the exposed pins of connectors.
