1. CHAPTER 6 ADVANCED CHASSIS SETUP This chapter covers the steps required to install components and perform main tenance on the mother board chassis For component installation follow the steps in the order given to eliminate the most common problems encountered If a step is unnecessary skip ahead to the step that follows Tools Required The only tool you will need to install components and perform maintenance is a Philips screwdriver 6 1 Static Sensitive Devices Electrostatic Discharge ESD can damage electronic components To prevent damage to any printed circuit boards PCBs it is important to handle them very carefully The following measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD discharge Precautions o Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge o Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag o Handle a board by its edges only do not touch its components peripheral chips memory modules or gold contacts o When handling chips or modules avoid touching their pins o Put the serverboard add on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use o For grounding purposes make sure your computer chassis provides excellent conductivity between the power supply the case the mounting fasteners and the serverboard INCNIODES Copyright 2009 Acnodes Inc 661 Brea Canyon Rd Suite 3 All rights reserved Product description
