Quick install guide
The IXH610 can be installed in any compliant PCI Express x8 or x16, Gen1, Gen2 or Gen3 slot. The IXH610
does not support slot sizes less than an x8 slot.
Note:
Static electricity from your clothes or work environment can damage your PCI Express adapter card or
your PC. Always wear a grounded antistatic wrist strap while opening the PC and when the card is removed
from the anti-static bag.
IXH610 operating modes
The Dolphin PCI Express IXH610 card has two
main operational modes, transparent and NTB
mode. The mode is controlled by the BOOT
EEPROM SELECT DIP-switch labeled SW2
that can be found close to the upper edge of
the board. The two mode configuration options
are found in the table below. DIP-switch
position 1 controls setting the board in
transparent or non-transparent mode (NTB).
The DIP-switch can be seen on the picture
below.
