2.2 Unpacking
The 6208 card contains electro-static sensitive components that can be
easily be damaged by static electricity.
Therefore, the card should be handled on a grounded anti-static mat. The
operator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same
point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the card module carton for obvious damages. Shipping and
handling may cause damage to your module. Be sure there are no
shipping and handling damages on the modules carton before continuing.
After opening the card module carton, extract the system module and
place it only on a grounded anti-static surface with component side up.
Again, inspect the module for damages. Press down on all the socketed
IC's to make sure that they are properly seated. Do this only with the
module place on a firm flat surface.
Note: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL A DAMAGED BOARD IN THE
COMPUTER.
You are now ready to install your card.
