2.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during installation may result in permanent damage to the uIBX-230-BT and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the uIBX-230-BT. Dry climates are especiall y susceptibl e to ESD. It is theref ore critical that whenever t he uIBX-230-BT or any other electrical 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: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. 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 uIBX-230-BT, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the uIBX-230-BT.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions

When the uIBX-230-BT 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 uIBX-230-BT does not
fall out of the box.
Make sure all the components shown in Section 2.3 are present.
