    IMB-9454G-R40 4.1 Anti-static Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the IMB-9454G. (Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.) It is therefore critical that whenever the IMB-9454G (or any other electrical component) is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
  • Page 74: Unpacking

    IMB-9454G-R40 When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage. Turn off all power to the IMB-9454G When working with the motherboard, make sure that it is disconnected from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system.
