PCI-1750 User Manual 6
2.1 Initial inspection
Before starting to install the PCI-1750, make sure there is no visible damage on the
card. We carefully inspected the card both mechanically and electrically before ship-
ment. It should be free of marks and in perfect order on receipt.
As you unpack the PCI-1750, check it for signs of shipping damage (damaged box,
scratches, dents, etc.) If it is damaged or fails to meet specification, notify our service
department or your local sales representative immediately. Also, call the carrier
immediately and retain the shipping carton and packing materials for inspection by
the carrier. We will then make arrangements to repair or replace the unit.
2.2 Unpacking
The PCI-1750 contains components that are sensitive and vulnerable to static elec-
tricity. Discharge any static electricity on your body to ground by touching the back of
the system unit (grounded metal) before you touch the board.
Remove the PCI-1750 card from its protective packaging by grasping the rear panel.
Handle the card only by its edges to avoid static discharge which could damage its
integrated circuits. Keep the antistatic package. Whenever you remove the card from
the PC, please store the card in this package for its protection.
You should also avoid contact with materials that hold static electricity such as plas-
tic, vinyl and styrofoam.
Check the product contents inside the packing. There should be one card, one CD-
ROM, and this manual. Make sure nothing is missing.
