Unpacking
Your packing box contains the following items:
•
The VisionRGB-E2/E2S
•
2 x DVI/VGA, 1 x DVI/Component and 1 x DVI/HDMI Adapter
•
Installation CD ROM
If there are any discrepancies, you should contact Datapath immediately.
Note:
All plug-in cards are static sensitive and are packed in anti-static material. Please keep the card in its
packaging until you are ready to install.
It is recommended that you do not discard the packing box until you are completely satisfied with the
VisionRGB-E2/E2S capture card and it is fully installed and working correctly. We also recommend
that you make a note of the serial number of the card in a prominent place before the card is plugged
into the computer. This should hasten any query should you need to contact our Technical Support
Department. The serial number is displayed on the card itself and the box label.
Installing the Capture Card
You are likely to need a flat blade and a Phillips head screwdriver for the installation of the capture card; it
would be useful to have these to hand before you begin.
Installing the card is a simple process, follow the steps below to be up and running in a few minutes:
•
Power down the PC (including peripherals), switch off at the mains and disconnect all the cables con
-
nected to the computer, noting the positions for accurate reconnection. Remove the PC cover
•
Locate a vacant PCIe (x4 or above) slot for the VisionRGB-E2/E2S on the motherboard and remove the
backing plate (retain all screws).
If in doubt consult your motherboard documentation to correctly
identify a PCIe (PCI-express) slot. If the card is forced into a 32 or 64 bit PCI or PCI-X slot it will be
irreparably damaged when the system is powered up and the warranty will be void.
•
Remove the card from its packaging and secure it firmly into the empty PCIe slot. Extreme care should
be taken when securing the card into the slot as some motherboards may have components that
impede the siting of the card
•
Screw the card bracket to the back panel of the PC and replace the cover
•
Re-connect all cables to the PC
•
Connect the cable(s) distributing the HD/HDMI/RGB/DVI signals to the connectors on the VisionRGB-
E2/E2S card located on the back panel.
•
Power up the PC and commence the software installation.
