Step 1: Unpack And Inspect The Module; Electrostatic Discharge (Esd) Precautions - Keysight M9614A Startup Manual

Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Module

Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Module
Keysight's PXIe chassis and instrument modules are shipped in materials which
prevent static electricity damage. The modules should only be removed from the
packaging in an anti-static area ensuring that correct anti-static precautions are
taken. Store all modules in anti-static envelopes when not in use.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can
damage or destroy electronic
components. Use a static-safe
work station to perform all work
on electronic assemblies. This
figure shows a static-safe work
station using two types of ESD
protection.
•
•
Both types, when used together,
provide a significant level of ESD
protection. Of the two, only the table mat and wrist strap combination provides
adequate ESD protection when used alone. To ensure user safety, the static-safe
accessories must provide at least 1 M of isolation from ground.
DO NOT use these techniques for a static-safe work station when working on
circuitry with a voltage potential greater than 500 V.
