2.1 Unpacking

After receiving your PCI-1718HDU/HGU package, please inspect its contents first. The package should contain the following items:

•PCI-1718HDU or PCI-1718HGU card

•Companion CD-ROM (Device Drivers included)

•User Manual

The PCI-1718 cards harbor certain electronic components vulnerable to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can easily damage the integrated cir- cuits and certain components if preventive measures are ignored.

Before removing the card from the antistatic plastic bag, you should take the following precautions to ward off possible ESD damage:

•Touch the metal part of your computer chassis with your hand to dis- charge the static electricity accumulated on your body. Alternatively, one can also use a grounding strap.

•Touch the anti-static bag to a metal part of your computer chassis before opening the bag.

•Take hold of the card only by the metal bracket when removing it out of the bag.

After taking out the card, you should first:

•Inspect the card for any possible signs of external damage (loose or damaged components, etc.). If the card is visibly damaged, please notify our service department or our local sales representative immedi- ately. Do not install a damaged card into your system.

Also, pay extra caution to the following aspects during installation:

•Avoid physical contact with materials that could hold static electricity such as plastic, vinyl and Styrofoam.

•Whenever you handle the card, grasp it only by its edges. DO NOT TOUCH the exposed metal pins of the connector or the electronic com- ponents.
