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.
Unpacking
The add-on card is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When
unpacking your component or your system, make sure that the person handling it
is static protected.
Note
: To avoid damaging your components and to ensure proper installa-
tion, be sure to always connect the power cord last, and always remove it
before adding, removing or changing any hardware components.
3-2 Before Installation
To install the add-on card properly, be sure to follow the instructions below.
