Installation Guidelines
Prior to replacing or installing the keyboard unit, ensure that all electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety protocols are strictly followed. Power down the corresponding console interface module before connecting or disconnecting the keyboard's communication bus to avoid electrical surges or port damage. Securely route the connection cables within the console housing to prevent physical strain, pinching, or exposure to excessive heat sources.
