Installing an XO16 Card in SC48
Your SC48 has two available output card slots, slots D and E.
These instructions assume you already have an output card in-
stalled in slot D and that slot E is empty.
1
Shut down your system, and turn off power to the SC48.
2
Disconnect any power cables from the SC48, as well as any
other audio cables that may get in your way.
3
On the back panel of the SC48, locate output slot E.
4
Remove the four screws holding the card slot cover in place.
You can use a flathead screwdriver to pry the cover away from
the output slot after removing the screws.
Keep the screws nearby for securing the card to the SC48.
5
Clip the cable tie to free the ribbon cable that is attached to
the inside of the card slot cover.
If the Expansion Card does not appear in the Mix Rack
graphic, check the ribbon cable connection. Disconnect and
reconnect the ribbon cable to the Expansion Card, making
sure to properly seat the connector in its card socket.
