2.3.11 Installation Environment
When preparing to install any equipment described in this man-
ual, please refer to Chapter C: Important Safety Instructions.
Only install equipment in well lit areas on flat, sturdy surfaces
with access to basic tools such as flat- and cross-head screw-
drivers, preferably with magnetic heads as screws and stand-
offs are small and easily misplaced.
Recommended Installation Tools
Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver
Flat-head screwdriver
Anti-static wrist strap
Anti-static mat
ADLINK PXIe-3975 system controllers are electrostatically
sensitive and can be easily damaged by static electricity. The
equipment must be handled on a grounded anti-static mat, and
operators must wear an anti-static wristband, grounded at the
same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the carton and packaging for damage. Shipping and
handling may cause damage to the contents. Ensure that all
contents are undamaged before installing.
NOTE:
NOTE:
While the PXIe-3975 ships with a 2.5" SATA hard drive
pre-installed to the SATA port, no HDD is shown
installed, for clarity.
CAUTION:
All equipment must be protected from static discharge
and physical shock. Never remove any of the socketed
parts except at a static-free workstation. Use the anti-
static bag shipped with the product to handle the equip-
ment and wear a grounded wrist strap when servicing or
installing.
