may result in

2.1 Anti-s tatic Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during installation permanent damage to the ECN-360A-ULT3 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the ECN-360A-ULT3. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever t he ECN-360A-ULT3 or any other elect rical com ponent is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
Self-grounding: Touch any grounded conducting material before handling
the board. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the ECN-360A-ULT3, place it on
an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the ECN-360A-ULT3.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions

When the ECN-360A-ULT3 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 2.1.  Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the ECN-360A-ULT3 does
not fall out of the box.
Make sure all the components shown in Section 2.3 are present.
