Before Starting Installation:
Be careful when handling the NC-8100h. There are many delicate electronic components that are susceptible to
damage from static electricity. To avoid such damage, use the following precautions when handling the board:
Leave the NC-8100h in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.
Make sure that you are adequately grounded before touching the NC-8100h. Use an anti-static wrist strap and a
grounding mat if possible. If you do not have an anti-static wrist strap, touch the bare metal surface on the back
of the machine before handling the NC-8100h.
Avoid moving around the work area in order to eliminate static charge build-up.
If possible, do not work on a carpeted area.
Do not flex the board and do not touch the components on the card.
