Attaching the Antistatic Wrist Strap
The ASN comes with an antistatic wrist strap. The antistatic wrist strap directs the
discharge of static electricity from your body to the chassis of the ASN, thereby
protecting sensitive electronic components. You must wear the antistatic wrist
strap whenever you handle the net module.
To attach the antistatic wrist strap:
1.
Remove the wrist strap from its package.
2.
Place the looped end of the strap around your wrist.
3.
Adjust the strap so that it fits snugly on your wrist.
4.
Attach the alligator clip at the other end of the wrist strap to any
unpainted, metal surface on the component tray.
Removing a Filler Bracket
Filler brackets cover empty ASN net module positions and the openings above
positions 1 and 3 (F
igure 1-2). When you install a net module, you must remove
the filler brackets from the openings above positions 1 and 3, and from the
position in which you want to install the net module.
To remove a filler bracket:
1.
Grasp the top edges of the bracket.
2.
Lift the bracket up and toward the front of the tray to release it from the
metal tabs that hold it in place.
Remember that the net module ports are located at the back end of the component
tray.
Caution:
Electrostatic discharge can damage the hardware. Follow the
procedure in this section to protect your equipment.
Note:
This guide refers to the area where the net module ports are located as
the “back end” of the component tray. To perform maintenance tasks on the
ASN components, you face the back end of the tray.
