AFL2-12A-D525 Series Panel PCPage 404.1 Anti-static PrecautionsWARNING:Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of theAFL2-12A-D525 may result in permanent damage to theAFL2-12A-D525 and severe injury to the user.Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,including the AFL2-12A-D525. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It istherefore critical that whenever the AFL2-12A-D525 is accessed internally, or any otherelectrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adheredto. Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband canhelp to prevent ESD from damaging the board. Self-grounding: - Before handling the board touch any grounded conductingmaterial. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch anyconducting materials that are connected to the ground. Use an anti-static pad: - When configuring the AFL2-12A-D525, place it onan antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging theAFL2-12A-D525. Only handle the edges of the PCB: - When handling the PCB, hold the PCBby the edges.4.2 Installation PrecautionsWhen installing the flat bezel panel PC, please follow the precautions listed below: Power turned off: When installing the flat bezel panel PC, make sure thepower is off.
