CAUTIONS, System power on/off, Electrostatic discharge ESD & ESD protection

Page 40 highlights

CAUTIONS System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any components. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) & ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis groundany unpainted metal surfaceon your server when handling parts. ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface. Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip, but not squeeze, with the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the stake pins on the board. 40 Intel Server Board S875WP1-E Product Guide

System power on/off:
The power button DOES NOT turn off the system
AC power.
To remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power
cord from the wall outlet.
Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before
you open the chassis, add, or remove any components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) & ESD protection:
ESD can damage
disk drives, boards, and other parts.
We recommend that you perform all
procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation.
If one is not
available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap
attached to chassis ground
any unpainted metal surface
on your server
when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards:
Always handle boards carefully.
They can
be extremely sensitive to ESD.
Hold boards only by their edges.
After
removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the
board component side up on a grounded, static free surface.
Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper.
Do not slide
board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers:
A jumper is a small plastic encased

Some jumpers have a small tab on

pliers.
If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle
nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the

Gripping the wide sides can
damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with
the function controlled by that jumper.
Take care to grip, but not squeeze,
with the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or
break the stake pins on the board.
