Removing the EMC Shield
You must remove the EMC shield to access the processor modules in BN
platforms.
To remove the EMC shield (Figure 2-4)
:
1.
Attach an antistatic wrist strap.
BN platforms and link modules ship with an antistatic wrist strap. You must
wear one of these straps whenever you access components in a platform.
The antistatic wrist strap directs the discharge of static electricity from your
body to the chassis, thereby avoiding discharge and possible damage to
sensitive electronic components.
2.
Loosen the captive thumbscrews that fasten the EMC shield to the
chassis.
3.
Remove the EMC shield from the chassis.
Caution: Do not operate a BN platform with the EMC shield removed for
more than 5 minutes. Without the EMC shield, the BN platform may overheat.
In addition, the BCN contains temperature sensors that may not detect an
overheating condition without the shield in place.
Caution: Electrostatic discharge can damage hardware. Always use the
antistatic wrist strap when handling any component in the BN platform.
