4. Hardware Installation The following sections in this chapter describe how to install AG-623C Module 4.1. Installation Overview AG-623C wireless module is design for Access Point, Router, ATU-R, Printer Server series, IP Camera series and Internet Video Server only. 4.2. Safety Recommendations The safety guidelines are as follows: λ Keep the board area clear and dust-free before, during, and after installation. λ Keep tools away from walk areas where you and others could fall over them. λ Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, such as earrings, bracelets, or chains, that could get caught in the board. λ Wear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes. λ Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe. λ Never attempt to lift an object that is too heavy for one person to handle. 4.3. Maintaining Safety with Electricity Warning: Before working on a board or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; on DC units, disconnect the power at the circuit breaker. Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity: λ Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist anywhere in your work space. λ Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check the circuit. extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds. λ If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows: – Use caution; do not become a victim yourself. – Disconnect power from the system. – If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of the victim and then call for help. – Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take appropriate action. - 7 - 4.4. Installing a AG-623C λ Remove the AG-623C module from its protective packaging. λ Avoiding Electrostatic Discharge Before you install the AG-623C module, ground yourself by touching a piece of metal to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD). You should also take the following precautions to prevent damage to the AG-623C module: λ Keep the AG-623C module in its antistatic-shielded bag until you are ready to install it. λ Handle the AG-623C module by its edges. λ Ensure the connector is connected to above Model’s board tightly.
