Installation

Inspect the card module carton for obvious damage. Shipping and
handling may cause damage to your module. Be sure there are no
shipping and handing damages on the module before processing.

After opening the card module carton, extract the system module and
place it only on a grounded anti -static surface component side up.
Again inspect the module for damage. Press down on all the
socketed IC's to make sure that they are properly seated. Do this
only with the module place on a firm flat surface.

Note : DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE CARD IF IT HAS BEEN

DAMAGED.

You are now ready to install your ACL-8454.
