Handling precautions
Make sure to handle the 3762 carefully. Always grasp the multiplexer card by the side edges or
covers. Do not touch board surfaces, components, or areas adjacent to electrical contacts.
Contamination from foreign materials such as dirt, dust, and body oils can substantially lower leakage
resistances, degrading card performance.
The information in this section is intended only for qualified personnel. Do not perform these
procedures unless you are qualified. Failure to recognize and observe standard safety
precautions could result in personal injury or death due to electric shock.
Unpack and inspect
The 3762 was inspected both electrically and mechanically before shipment. Upon receiving the
3762, unpack all items from the shipping carton and check for any obvious damage that may have
occurred during transit. Retain and use the original packaging materials in case reshipment is
necessary.
To unpack and inspect your instrument:
1. Inspect the box for damage.
2. Open the top of the box.
3. Remove the contents (you should have received one 3762 card).
4. Inspect the 3762 card for any obvious signs of physical damage.
5. Report any damage to the shipping agent immediately.
