Precautions
To ensure continual high performance from the OCP 400 take the following
precautions into consideration:
• Avoid damp places. If the environment is wet or damp a rain cover must be used to
protect the camera.
• Do not subject the OCP 400 to severe shocks or vibration.
• Do not expose the OCP 400to extremes of temperature.
• Do not leave the OCP 400 in direct sunlight or close to heating appliances for
extended periods.
• Do not connect Grass Valley OCP 400 with other manufacturer's camera system parts.
• Make connections swiftly and firmly to avoid false error messages.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection
Electrostatic discharge occurs when electronic components are improperly
handled and can result in intermittent failure or complete damage adversely
affecting an electrical circuit. When you remove and replace any card from a frame
always follow ESD-prevention procedures:
• Ensure that the frame is electrically connected to earth ground through the power cord
or any other means if available.
• Wear an ESD wrist strap ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the
grounding clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely ground unwanted
ESD voltages. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the unpainted
metal part of the chassis.
v
• For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should
be between 1 and 10 megohms.
• When temporarily storing a card make sure it is placed in an ESD bag.
• Cards in an earth grounded metal frame or casing do not require any special ESD
protection.
