Occasionally you will need to replace the P1 Pentium PowerStation's
touchscreen, depending on the environment where you are operating the
unit. Before you begin, read the section on Electrostatic Discharge
Precautions.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Modern integrated electronic devices, especially CPUs and memory chips,
are extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharges (ESD) and fields. Before
you disassemble the PowerStation, follow these simple precautions to
protect you and the PowerStation from harmful ESD.
Once you have read and understand the ESD safety precautions, you are
ready to remove the touchscreen from the PowerStation.
CTC Parker Automation
To avoid electric shock, always disconnect power from the
PowerStation before opening or disassembling the unit. Do
not touch any components on the CPU card or other cards
while the PowerStation is on.
Disconnect power before making any hardware configuration
changes. The sudden rush of power as you connect a jumper
or install a card may damage sensitive electronic components.
Only handle internal components in an ESD-safe location,
using appropriate grounding methods.
Wear a grounding wrist strap for continuous protection.
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before
you touch the CPU card.
Be particularly careful not to touch the chip connectors.
Keep any card or SDRAM module in its anti-static packaging
when it is not installed in the PowerStation. Place it on a static
dissipative mat when you are working on it.
