ReadyBoard 700 QuickStart Guide 21
CAUTION To prevent damage to the ReadyBoard 700 or the CompactFlash card, do not
touch either one until you have discharged yourself and have followed good
Electrostatic Discharge principals. The ReadyBoard 700 and CompactFlash
cards are sensitive to static electricity and can be easily damaged by
improper handling. Do the following when handling the CompactFlash
cards:
Leave the CompactFlash in the anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.
Always use an anti-static wrist/ankle strap and a grounding mat connected to
ground.
Before you remove a CompactFlash card from the anti-static bag, touch a
grounded, unpainted metal surface to discharge any static electricity.
3. Disconnect any cables that would prevent you from turning the ReadyBoard 700 over exposing
the bottom of the board.
4. Turn the ReadyBoard 700 over to access the bottom of the board and lay it on a flat anti-static
surface. See Figure 2-6.
5. Grasp the two sides of the CompactFlash card or the lip (catch edge) and gently pull it from the
CompactFlash socket and place on anti-static surface or in anti-static bag.

set JP4 to the correct setting (Master/Slave) before continuing. See Table 2-1 and Figure 1-4.
