Step 1 Unpack and Inspect the Contents

Step
1 Inspect the cardboard carton for obvious damage. If damaged, call 770-246-8600. Leave it in its original
packing.
2 Perform all unpacking and installation procedures on a ground-connected anti-static mat. Wear an anti-static
wristband grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat or use a sheet of conductive aluminum foil
grounded through a 1-megohm resistor instead of the anti-static mat.
Similarly, a strip of conductive aluminum foil wrapped around the wrist and grounded through a 1 megohm
resistor serves the same purpose as the wristband.
