1.4 Safety
SECOnITX-ION module uses only extremely-low voltages.
While handling the board, it is necessary to be careful in order to avoid any kind of risk or damages
to electronic components. Always switch the power off, and unplug the power supply unit, before
handling the board and/or connecting cables or other boards.
Don’t use metallic components, like paper clips, screws and similar, near the board, when this is
supplied, to avoid short circuits due to unwanted contacts with other components of the board.
Never connect the board to an external power supply unit or battery, if the board has become wet.
Make sure that all cables are correctly connected and are not damaged.
1.5 Electrostatic Discharges
SECOnITX-ION, like any other electronic product, is an electrostatic sensitive device and some
components on-board could be damaged by high voltages caused by static electricity.
So whenever handling a SECOnITX-ION board, take care to ground yourself through an anti-static
wrist strap. Placement of the board on an anti-static surface is also highly recommended.
1.6 RoHS compliance
SECOnITX-ION board is designed using RoHS compliant components and is manufactured on a
lead-free production line. It is therefore fully RoHS compliant.
