D Class System Installation

1. Install Internal Add-on Options

D Class servers are confi gured at the factory to inc lude most I/O cards and interna l peripherals.

If you have any internal ad d-on options, install them now according to th e instructions shipped with the option.

WARNING DO NOT CONNECT SYSTEM POWER CORD AT THIS TIME. If you open

the system cabinet when power is connected, you will be exposed to high-energy (high-amperage) circuits and possible ejection of molten metal. Be sure to remove all rings, watches, and other je welry from fingers, wrists, and arms before opening the system cabinet.

Electrostatic Discharge Precautions

If you are installing additional cards or peripherals, you must ensure that they a re not damaged due to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent such damage from occurring, observe the following ESD precautions when handling and installing boards:

1. Use a grounding mat and an anti-static wris t st rap. These items are included in the ESD Field Service Kit (HP P/N A3024-80004).

2. Wear the anti-static wrist strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is disc harged from your body to ground.

3. Keep uninstalled printed-circuit boa rds in their protective anti-static bags until you are ready to instal l them.

4. Handle printed-circuit boa rds by their edges after you have removed them from their protecti ve a nti-static bags.
