WARNING WARNING -- ESD ESD
Keep electronic circuit boards in Electrostatic Sensitive Discharge
(ESD) protective bags when not being handled. Use proper ESD
procedures (including an ESD wrist strap) when handling circuit
boards. Failure to comply may result in damage to equipment.
When working with an electrostatic sensitive discharge (ESD) device, you
should be grounded at all times. The easiest and most common way to provide
this ground is to use an approved ESD wrist strap. The strap is secured to your
wrist with a wire attached to the strap and clipped or taped to the chassis of the
unit being worked on. Any static is dissipated through the wire to ground,
greatly reducing the possibility of damage to the device.
It is a good idea to touch the chassis with your finger before handling any
electrostatic sensitive device. Any static electricity will be discharged to chassis
ground and will not be transferred to the device.
Always store devices (cards, other electronic components) in ESD protective
bags when not being handled.
Remove the protective shipping and packing material from the card. Ensure
contact wedges and other shipping devices have been removed.
Installing the Smart Trac DeviceNet
Card
The Smart Trac DeviceNet Card is PC/104 compatible, so it may be positioned
on the very top of the Smart Trac card stack.
NOTE: If replacing or adding a Smart Trac DeviceNet card to an existing Smart
Trac card stack, see "Appendix C – Removing the Smart Trac Card Stack"
before continuing.
