Installing the XV-SD4+1/SD4+1S 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 connect-
ed to the computer, noting the positions for accurate reconnection. Remove the PC cover
Locate a vacant PCIe (x4 or above) slot 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 sys-
tem 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 Input cables
Power up the PC and commence the software installation
