Unpacking Your GPIB-410
Follow these steps when unpacking your GPIB-410:
1.
Verify that the pieces contained in the package you received match
the kit parts list given earlier in this chapter. Do not remove the
board from its plastic bag at this point.
2.
Your GPIB-410 board is shipped packaged in an antistatic plastic
bag to prevent electrostatic damage to the board. Several
components on the board can be damaged by electrostatic
discharge. To avoid such damage in handling the board, touch the
plastic bag to a metal part of your computer chassis before
removing the board from the bag.
3.
Remove the board from the bag 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.
