Hardware Preparation and Installation
Unpacking Instructions
If the shipping carton is damaged upon receipt, request that the carrier’s agent be present during the unpacking and inspection of the equipment.
Unpack the equipment from the shipping carton. Refer to the packing list and verify that all items are present. Save the packing material for storing and reshipping of equipment.
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry. Static discharge can damage circuits. After removing the product from the packaging:
∙Check for obvious physical damage.
∙Make sure that you disconnect the chassis from the main power supply before you continue.
Antistatic Precautions
Emerson strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic components, such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules, can be extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). After removing the component from its protective wrapper or from the system, place the component flat on a grounded,
If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by wearing an antistatic wrist strap (available at electronics stores) that is attached to an active electrical ground. Note that a system chassis may not be grounded if it is unplugged.
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry. Static discharge can damage these circuits.
