P9
P9 is intended for Sealevel Systems internal use only. Several pins of P9 carry high DC voltages and
provide direct electrical connection to the COM Express module and other ESD sensitive electronics.
Extreme care should be taken to ensure no conductive materials come in contact with any pins of
P9. Touching a conductive material to any contacts of P9 could result in irreparable damage to the
circuit board and/or COM Express module. It is acceptable to place ESD safe tape over the contacts
of P9 (on both sides of the circuit board) to provide protection from inadvertent damage.
The 12000-KT is shipped with the captive SATA drive pre-installed on the product. The aluminum-
mounting bracket holds the drive on the board and a sheet of Mylar protects the circuit board
from damage due to small vibrations and movements of the disk drive. If the drive is removed or
replaced for any reason, the protective Mylar sheet and disk drive bracket must be reinstalled.
