General conventions
The procedures described in this manual use the following text conventions:
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair
electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic printed circuit cards
are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent
failures. Do the following to prevent ESD:
•
Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and
replacing cards.
•
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes
good skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of
the chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to
ground.
•
To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist
strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is
available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the
chassis.
