Before You Begin
Personal and
product safety
CAUTION:
Prevent ESD (electrostatic discharge) damage to ClientCube 2 and smart
card readers by always discharging your body and smart card before using
a reader (for example, by touching a grounded, unpainted, metal object).
ESD can vary depending on many environmental conditions, including
clothing that users wear and how they handle smart cards. ESD damage can
potentially cause unsupported card reader behavior including failure.
Always perform ESD prevention steps before using a card reader.
Inspect
packaging
If ClientCube 2 packaging or hardware (including holographic seals on the Secure KVM or KM)
shows any evidence of disruption, call ClearCube Support immediately at (800) 652-3400.
Not included in
