3.4 MaXiO 032 connection

After the MaXiO PCI host card is installed in the PCI slot, you should connect MaXiO 032 to the
card using the supplied M.D.I cable.

Start by connecting the MaXiO breakout box with the M.D.I In connector on MaXiO breakout box
with the M.D.I port on the MaXiO PCI host card as shown on the picture below. If you have
EX8000 units too, connect it to the E.D.I port and so on.
