Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or
semiconductors if you touch analog I/O module bus connector pins
or the terminal block on the input module. Follow these guidelines
when you handle the module:
•
Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential.
•
Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device.
•
Do not touch the bus connector or connector pins.
