    EPX-C414. Use Proper Power Connections (Voltage)—When verifying the voltage, measure it at the power connector on the EPX-C414. Measuring it at the power supply does not account for voltage drop through the wire and connectors.
  • Page 72 Power Supply OFF—The power supply should always be off before it is connected to the I/O Module. Do not hot-plug the EPX-C414 on a host platform that is already powered. I/O Connections OFF—I/O Connections should also be off before connecting them to the embedded computer modules or any I/O cards.
  • Page 73 C414 on the mounting standoffs. Sliding the board around until the standoffs are visible from the top can cause component damage on the bottom of the board. Do Not Bend or Flex the EPX-C414—Bending or flexing can cause irreparable damage. Embedded computer modules are especially sensitive to flexing or bending around Ball Grid Array (BGA) devices.
