Performing the Physical Installation of
the Host Adapter
To physically install the host adapter:
1. Shut down the operating system running on your host computer.
2. When the operating system has shut down, turn off the power to the host
computer and all attached peripherals. Then, disconnect power cables
from the host computer.
WARNING: Failure to remove power from the host computer and peripherals
can introduce a personal hazard, or can result in damage to the host computer
with loss of stored data.
3. Open the computer to gain access to the motherboard. Refer to your
computer system manual for assistance in completing this procedure.
4. Locate an available PCI expansion slot, and remove the blank filler
panel corresponding to that expansion slot at the rear of the system.
Retain the screw that held it in place. You need the screw to secure the
SWXA3–BD adapter as specified in Step 5 of this procedure.
5. Install the SWXA3–BD Host Adapter Board in a PCI slot in your
system, as shown in Figure 2-2. Ensure that the board end plate metal
tab aligns in the system chassis opening properly, otherwise the adapter
will not seat correctly. Secure the board to the system chassis with the
screw you removed from the blank filler panel.
