a. Carefully grasp the adapter
.3/
by its top edge
or upper corners, and align it with the expansion
slot on the system board.
b. Press the adapter
firmly into the expansion slot.
Attention
When you install an adapter in the server,
be sure that it is completely and correctly
seated in the system board connector before
you apply power. Incomplete insertion might
cause damage to the system board or the
adapter.
9. If you are installing an adapter in PCI slots 1, 2, 3, or
4:
a. Refer to the illustration in “Hot-plug PCI adapter
installation” on page 173 for operation of the
adapter retention latch on the end of the slot
near the rear of the server.
b. Lower the tab on the adapter guide over the tab
on the top corner of the adapter. Rotate the
adapter retention latch clockwise until it snaps
into place.
If you are installing an adapter in PCI slots 5 or 6 or
in the ISA slot:
a. Align the rounded notch in the retaining bracket
with the threaded hole in the expansion-slot
frame. The retaining bracket on the adapter fits
into the space that was occupied by the
expansion-slot cover.
b. Insert the expansion-slot screw
.3/
that you
removed earlier into the threaded hole, and push
the rounded notch up against the screw.
c. Tighten the expansion-slot screw firmly.
Note
The expansion slot also has an adapter
retention latch
.4/
at the end of the slot
toward the middle of the server. To remove
the adapter, you need to push this adapter
retention latch
.4/
away from the adapter
until the top edge of the adapter is past the
latch.
.
10. Connect any needed cables to the adapter.
11. If you have other options to install or remove, do so
now; otherwise, go to “Completing the installation” on
page 154.
