Installation Guidelines

• ESD Protection: The board contains static-sensitive components. Always handle the module using a grounded wrist strap and store in anti-static protective bags.
• Hardware Configuration: Configure jumpers J1 (RS232 port enable/disable), JP2 (oscillator test), and JP3 (factory reserved) before mounting the board.
• Software Setup: Use the I/O Configuration Editor on the HMI to define parameters for connected thermocouples, RTDs, and mA signals.
• Safety: Ensure the control system power is fully disconnected before inserting or removing the board from the rack.
