ADP3450 arrived with rattling component

[GregoR]

I just unboxed the ADP3450 I ordered for a student lab and when I removed it from it's anti-static bag I heard something rattling inside the case. After further inspection I was able to see the part that was rattling around inside through the bottom side ventilation slits. It looks like a small blue jumper connector, and I have attached 2 images. 

I would usually open up devices to investigate further and make repairs but I don't want to void any warranties on this newly purchased device.

 

I'm wondering what my next steps should be, thank you for any information.

Hi @GregoR

Most likely a jumper header needed for the initial programming of the device was left on the board.
This should not cause any problem but feel free to open the device to remove it.

Hi @GregoR,

Attila is the expert on these devices, but I wanted to reiterate that we got confirmation from the manufacturing side that these are indeed just jumpers that are normally removed after the initial programming and that you can remove the rubber feet to get access to the screws on the housing without voiding warranty.

Digilent will make sure that these jumper blocks are removed in the future.

Thanks,
JColvin
