ATCA-7350 Installation and Use (6806800G59G) 33
Note the following points at the time of installing RTM-ATCA-7x50:
 If an RTM is planned to be used, you must install the RTM in the slot before installing the
ATCA-7350 in the paired slot. If the ATCA-7350 is installed first and shelf power is turned
on the RTM must not be installed in the paired slot.
 To take the ATCA-7350 suite, hold the captive screw on the top of the face plate with one
hand and the lower edge of the blade with the other hand. Do not touch the components
of the blade.
2.4.1 ESD Prevention
Static electricity may hurt you or damage the device. To minimize the damage, pay attention
to the following points:
 Before you operate the device, wear the ESD-preventive wrist strap. Both terminals of the
ESD-preventive wrist strap must contact well. One terminal touches your bare skin, and
the other is inserted in the jack at the front or back side of the shelf. For details on how to
wear the ESD-preventive wrist strap, see
Wearing the ESD-Preventive Wrist Strap on page 34 .
 Avoid moving as much as possible. Movement gathers static electricity around you.
 Do not touch the solder point, pin, or bare circuit.
 Do not leave the device in the place where others can operate it.
 Install the device at once after you take it out of the antistatic package. If you need to lay
down the device, place it back in the antistatic package. Do not lay the device on the shelf
or cabinet.
 Monitor the temperature and humidity of the equipment room. Warm air decreases the
humidity but increases the static electricity in the room.
Damage of Circuits
Electrostatic discharge and incorrect module installation and removal can damage circuits or
shorten their life. Before touching the module or electronic components, make sure that you
are working in an ESD-safe environment.
