Safety Precaution - Static Electricity
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the products from
damage.
To avoid electrical shock, always disconnect the power from your PC chassis
before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the CPU card or other
cards while the PC is on.
Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The sudden rush
of power as you connect a jumper or install a card may damage sensitive electronic components.

1.2Safety Precautions
The following sections tell how to make each connection. In most cases, you will simply need to connect a standard cable.
Warning! Always disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever you are
working on it. Do not connect while the power is on. A sudden rush of
power can damage sensitive electronic components. Only experienced
electronics personnel should open the chassis.
Warning! Toujours à la terre pour éliminer toute charge d'électricité statique avant
toucher UNO-2483G/UNO-2473G. Appareils électroniques modernes
sont très sensibles à charges d'électricité statique. Utilisez un bracelet
antistatique à tout moment. Placez tous composants électroniques sur
une surface antistatique ou dans un statique-sac blindé.
Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static electric charge before
touching UNO-2483G/UNO-2473G. Modern electronic devices are very
sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all
times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or
in a static-shielded bag.
Caution! Toujours débrancher le cordon d'alimentation de votre boîtier lorsque
vous êtes travailler. Ne branchez pas lorsque l'appareil est allumé. Un
afflux soudain de puissance peut endommager les composants électroniques sensibles. Seulement connu personnel de l'électronique
devraient ouvrir le châssis.
