Pelco DX9200HDDI Preparing the DX8100 for Scsi Card Installation, Opening the DX8100 Chassis

6.Ensure that the DX8100 Series DVR and all of its components are protected against ESD. Before handling any electronic components, you should take steps to ground yourself properly so that any built-up static electric charges are dissipated away from the unit. The most effective method for combating ESD is to use a properly grounded wrist strap. Refer to Figure 4.

NOTE: If you do not have access to a grounded wrist strap, you can discharge any built-up static by periodically touching an unpainted section of the chassis.
