2.3 Hardware Installation
Make sure you have installed the driver before you install the card (please
refer to
2.2 Driver Installation )
Once the Device Driver installation is complete, you can install the MIC-
3723/3723R card in any CompactPCI slot in your enclosure. You should
refer to the computer user manual or related documentation if you have
any doubts. Please follow the steps below to install the card on your sys-
tem.
Step 1: Remove a cover of an unused slot on your CompactPCI system.
Step 2: Hold the card vertically. Be sure that the card is pointing in the
correct direction. The components of the card should be pointing to the
right-hand side and the black handle of the card should be pointing to the
lower edge of the backplane.
Step 3: Hold the lower handle and pull it down to unlock the card.
Step 4: Insert the MIC-3723/3723R card into the CompactPCI chassis
carefully by sliding the lower edges of the card into the card guides.
Step 5: Push the card into the slot gently by sliding the card along the
card guide until J1 meets the long needle on the backplane, then the Blue
LED on the front panel of the card will be lit.
Step 6: Now push the card into the right place, and the Blue LED will
turn off.
Step 7: After the Blue LED is off, push the handle to secure the card and
lock it into place.
Step 8: Because Advantech’s CompactPCI cards support hot-swapping,
the card can be automatically configured if your CompactPCI computer
power is on. Once the system has finished configuration, you can find the
card information in Device Manager.
