Chapter 1: Preparing the Emulator
Antistatic precautions
Printed-circuit boards contain electrical components that are easily damaged by
small amounts of static electricity. To avoid damage to the emulator boards, follow
these guidelines:
•
•
•
Note
If you already have a modular HP 64700 Series Card Cage and want to remove the
existing emulator and insert an HP 64780A emulator in its place, the HP 64700
Series generic firmware and analyzer firmware may NOT be compatible, and the
software will indicate incompatibility. In this event, you must purchase a Flash
EPROM board to update the firmware. Instructions for installing this board and
programming it from a PC or HP 9000 are provided in the HP 64700 Card Cage
Installation/Service manual. Instructions for installing and updating emulator
firmware are covered in Chapter 5, "Installing/Updating Emulator Firmware".
Note
If you already have a modular HP 64700 Series Card Cage and want to remove the
1K analyzer and install the deep analyzer in its place, the analyzer firmware will be
updated by your installation because the analyzer firmware is contained on the
analyzer card.

If possible, work at a static-free workstation.
Handle the boards only by the edges; do not touch components or traces.
Use a grounding wrist strap that is connected to the HP 64700 chassis.
