1.3RMA number request

To request a RMA number, please visit SECO’s web-site. On the home page, please select “RMA Online”and follow the procedure described.

A RMA Number will be sent within 1 working day (only for on-line RMA requests).

SBC-A80-eNUC

Always switch the power off, and unplug the power supply unit, before handling the board and/or connecting cables or other

boards.

Avoid using metallic components - like paper clips, screws and similar - near the board when connected to a power supply, to avoid

short circuits due to unwanted contacts with other board components.

If the board has become wet, never connect it to any external power supply unit or battery.

Check carefully that all cables are correctly connected and that they are not damaged.

Whenever handling a SBC-A80-eNUC board, ground yourself through an anti-static wrist strap. Placement of the board on an anti-

static surface is also highly recommended.

1.4Safety

The SBC-A80-eNUC board uses only extremely-low voltages.

While handling the board, please use extreme caution to avoid any kind of risk or damages to electronic components.

1.5Electrostatic discharges

The SBC-A80-eNUC board, like any other electronic product, is an electrostatic sensitive device: high voltages caused by static electricity could damage some or

all the devices and/or components on-board.

1.6RoHS compliance

The SBC-A80-eNUC board is designed using RoHS compliant components and is manufactured on a lead-free production line. It is therefore fully RoHS

compliant.
