Preface
Integrated Circuit Handling Procedure
Care should be taken in handling the circuit boards during installation and
service. A number of IC’s (Integrated Circuits) used in the equipment are from
the MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) family and are vulnerable to damage from
static discharges.
Exercise the following precautions when handling these components.
− Before handling components, ground yourself by touching a ground
rod or the grounded chassis of the equipment momentarily.
− Whenever, either installing or servicing the equipment, take proper
static protection (e.g. wearing a conductive wrist-strap) and stand on a
conductive mat, which is connected to the ground through a 100K ohm
resistor.
− Ground all test equipment and soldering stations that are electrically
powered.
Always connect the ground lead of the test equipment to the Base Station,
Extend-A-Page, and/or Power Amplifier, (which ever is being serviced) first and
then the test probe. While disconnecting, remove the test probe prior to the
ground lead.
Equipment Unpacking and Inspecting
Remove all hardware from the shipping carton and inspect the unit for damage.
If shipping damage has occurred, contact the carrier immediately. Obtain an
RMA number from Eagle Wireless International and return the damaged unit.
Use the original customized package for shipment. All damages must be
reported within 15 days of shipment.
