This will expose the PC/104 connector and the two pre-
installed standoffs on the metallic cover. 

6. Install the two short standoff screws included with the PC/104 

cover kit into the two empty screw holes located at the lower two 
corners of the backshell of the P1 unit.

Refer to the preceding diagram for standoff locations.

Note

Be careful not to overtighten the standoffs.

7. Install the PC/104 card securely onto the PC/104 connector.

The PC/104 card should rest evenly on the four standoffs.

8. Snap off the detachable plastic slots of the PC/104 side panels, as 

needed, for any PC/104 card connector(s) to show through the side 
panel(s).

9. Place the new PC/104 expansion cover on the backshell and align 

over the PC/104 card. The cover will align with the standoffs in 
only one orientation for securing to the backshell; the solid side of 
the cover should face the top of the unit

10. Secure the PC/104 cover to the backshell using the four longer, 

slotted screws provided with the PC/104 expansion cover kit. 

11. Perform any cable connections or further setup required for the 

PC/104 card.

The P1 PowerStation with the expansion cover is now ready to be mounted 
back in its enclosure.

Note

Access to the Compact Flash (CF) card on the PowerStation is 
restricted once the PC/104 expansion cover is installed on the 
P1 unit. If you wish to remove or replace the CF card on the 
PowerStation, the PC/104 cover may need to be removed.

Installing the PC/104 Cover for Two Cards

Installation of a PC/104 Expansion Cover for two cards is similar to the 
installation of the cover for one card, except for a few additional steps.

Follow these steps to install the expansion cover for two cards:

1. Follow Steps 1 through 6 for installing a PC/104 expansion cover 

for one card. See the preceding set of instructions.
