Installation
Note
: Your system came with the AOC-S3008L-L8e/AOC-S3008L-L8e+ add-on card
pre-installed as a part of an integrated solution. We do not recommend that any part
of your system components be removed and re-installed. However, if you do need to
remove or re-install a system component, including this add-on card, please follow
the instructions below to ensure proper system setup. Also, be sure to remove the
power cord first before adding, removing or changing any hardware components to
avoid damaging the system or components.
3-1 Static-Sensitive Devices
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To avoid dam-
aging your add-on card, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following
measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the add-on card from the
antistatic bag.
•
Handle the add-on card by its edges only; do not touch its components, or
peripheral chips.
•
Put the add-on card back into the antistatic bags when not in use.
•
For grounding purposes, make sure that your system chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the add-on card.
