4. Remove the screws holding in place the Xpander top cover, remove the top cover and set it
aside.
5. Connect the external PCIe cable from the
Xpander to the HIC in the host computer.
Make sure the cable connector seats firmly
in the HIC port. You will feel the cable
connector click into place. See the image of
a properly-seated connector at the right.
6. Connect a power cord to the receptacle at
the Xpander enclosure rear.
7. Power on the host computer. Xpander also
powers on. If you have properly seated the
HIC in the host PCIe slot, you will see the 8
LEDs at the top edge of the HIC light steady
green.
8. Check the mainboard Cable (P0) LED,
which should light steady green. This
indicates that the connection between the
HIC and Xpander mainboard is good. The
5VSTBY LED should also light steady
green. See the image at the top of the next
page.
