CAUTION - the circuit board contains static sensitive components.  Discharge any static 
electricity from your hands by touching a proper ground device before removing the 
circuit board.  Place the circuit board where it will not be damaged.

into the edge connector.  CAUTION - the circuit board contains static sensitive 
components.  Discharge any static electricity from your hands by touching a proper 
ground device before removing the circuit board.

WARNING!  If this access control system is used to control a vehicular gate 
with an automatic gate operator, the access control device must be mounted 
a minimum of ten (10) feet away from the gate and gate operator, or in such a 
way that a person cannot operate the access control device and touch the
