. If a PC was 

purchased from MED Associates Inc., the software and drivers will already be installed. If 
necessary, use the Hardware Configuration Utility to set user-defined options for file format, file 
naming, data path, and backup.  

PCI Computer Interface Card   

If the computer was purchased from MED Associates, the PCI card will be factory-installed.  
Otherwise, install the PCI Computer Interface Card into an available full height PCI slot in the 
computer  following the manufacturer’s instructions provided with the computer.  When 
finished, turn the computer on.  The Found New Hardware Wizard should begin automatically; if 
it does not, select

located on the MED-PC® installation CD and are automatically installed with MED-PC. 

Decoder Card 

To install the Decoder Card first turn off the power to the interface cabinet (SG-6080D or SG-
6510D).  The decoder card (DIG-700G) should be installed in the leftmost slot of the interface 
cabinet. Connect an SG-210CP two-pin Molex cable from the front of the decoder card to a 28
