Preparing the Installation Environment

Before you install or replace components, pay attention to the following:

Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap to prevent the static electricity from damaging the
device.

Keep the area where the components reside clean and keep the components away from
heat-generating devices, such as radiator.

Ensure that your sleeves are tightened or rolled up above the elbow. For safety purposes,
it is not recommended to wear jewelry, watch, glasses with metal frames, or clothes with
metal buttons.

Do not exert too much force, or insert or remove the components forcibly. Avoid damage
to the components or plug-ins.

Confirm the feasibility of the operation
Spare parts of components are available in the equipment warehouse. If available spare
parts are lacking, contact Artesyn Embedded Technologies for timely assistance. Visit

Make sure that the new components are in good condition and without defects such as
oxidation, chemical corrosion, missing components or transportation damage. Read this
document to familiarize yourself with the proper installation and replacement procedures

Check the environment
Make sure that the power supply, temperature, and humidity meet the operating
requirements for the board and its components. For details, refer to the respective system
documentation.

Prepare the parts and the tools
Prepare the components to be installed or replaced. Use the special antistatic package
when holding or transporting the components. Prepare the cross screwdriver, screws,
plastic supports, cooling gel, and ESD-preventive wrist strap.

Confirm installation or changing position
Confirm the position where COMX-P4080 COM Express Module will be installed.

If a serious problem occurs and cannot be solved when you install or replace the
