1. Receiving and Handling Instructions

1.1 Receiving Inspection

Visually inspect the module for obvious shipping damage. If shipping damage is
apparent, file a claim with the carrier and submit a copy to Bently Nevada
Corporation.

1.2 Handling and Storing Considerations

Circuit boards contain devices that are susceptible to damage when exposed to
electrostatic charges. Damage caused by obvious mishandling of the board will void
the warranty. To avoid damage, observe the following precautions:
Application Alert
Host communication and
rack configuration
capabilities will be lost
when this module is
removed from the rack.
Do not discharge static electricity onto the circuit board. Avoid tools or
procedures that would subject the circuit board to static damage. Some
possible causes include ungrounded soldering irons, nonconductive plastics,
and similar materials.
Personnel must be grounded with a suitable grounding strap (such as 3M
Velostat
Transport and store circuit boards in electrically conductive bags or foil.
Use extra caution during dry weather. Relative humidity less than 30% tends
to multiply the accumulation of static charges on any surface.
When performed properly, this module may be installed into or removed from
the rack while power is applied to the rack. Refer to the Rack Installation and
Maintenance Manual (part number 129766-01) for the proper procedure.
