Safety Precautions
• Shut off all power going to the header before attempting any wiring procedures.
• Maintain a clean & safe environment when working in public areas.
•
Constantly be aware of pedestrian traffic around the door area.
•
Always stop pedestrian traffic through the doorway when performing tests that may result in unexpected reactions by
the door.
• Always check placement of all wiring and components before powering up to insure that moving door parts will not
catch any wires and cause damage to equipment.
•
Ensure compliance with all applicable safety standards upon completion of installation.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
Circuit board components are vulnerable to damage by electrostatic discharge
(ESD). ESD can cause immediate or subtle damage to sensitive electronic parts.
An electrostatic charge can build up on the human body and then discharge when
you touch a board. A discharge can be produced when walking across a carpet
and touching a board, for example. Before handling any board, make sure you
dissipate your body’s charge.
CAUTION : In the event a unit needs to be opened, observe the following precautions.
Ground yourself by touching a conductive surface of the door or other element connected to common earth
ground to discharge the static electricity present in your body.
Avoid walking around while replacing items inside the case, especially if you are on carpet or during
conditions of low temperature and low humidity.
Handle the board by the edges only to avoid touching electronic components.
Store a loose board in an anti-static bag.
