Installing and Replacing Components
Before You Begin
Warnings
The procedures in this chapter assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with
industrial electronics and with safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and
modifying electronic equipment. Disconnect the system from any
telecommunication links, networks or modems before performing any of the
procedures described in this chapter. Failure to disconnect telecommunication
links before you open the system or perform any procedures can result in
personal injury or equipment damage. Some parts of the system can continue to
operate even though the power switch is in its off state.
Do not expose the board to fire. Battery cells and other components could explode
and cause personal injury.
Caution
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in this
chapter only at an ESD workstation. If such a station is not available, you can
provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it
to a metal part of the system chassis or board front panel. Store the board only
in its original ESD protected packaging. Retain the original packaging (antistatic
bag and antistatic box) in case of returning the board to EKF for rapair.
