Overview

LECTROSTATIC
Warning!
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage boards, disk drives, and other
components. The circuit board must be only be handled at an ESD workstation. If
an approved station is not available, some measure of protection can be provided
by wearing a grounded antistatic wrist strap. Keep all plastic away from the board,
and do not slide the board over any surface.
After removing the board from its protective wrapper, place the board on a
grounded, static-free surface, component side up. Use an anti-static foam pad if
available.
The board should also be protected during shipment or storage by keeping inside a
closed metallic anti-static envelope.
Note!
The exterior coating on some metallic anti-static bags is sufficiently conductive to
cause excessive battery drain if the bag comes in contact with the bottom side of
the VSBC-8.

ITHIUM
ATTERY
Warning!
To prevent shorting, premature failure, or damage to the lithium battery, do not
place the board on a conductive surface such as metal, black conductive foam, or
the outside surface of a metalized ESD protective pouch. The lithium battery may
explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire. Dispose
of used batteries promptly.

OUNTING
UPPORT
Warning!
The single board computer must be supported at all eight mounting points to
prevent excessive flexing when expansion modules are mated and demated. Flex
damage caused by excessive force on an improperly mounted circuit board is not
covered under the product warranty. See page 9 for more details.
