3.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the DRPC-240-
TGL may result in permanent damage to the DRPC-240-TGL and severe
injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the DRPC-240-TGL. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the DRPC-240-TGL is accessed internally, or any other
electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered
to.
 Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
 Self-grounding: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
 Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the DRPC-240-TGL, place it on an
anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the DRPC-240-
TGL.
