Caution
Electrostatic discharge can damage several components on your GPIB board. To
avoid such damage in handling your board, touch the antistatic plastic package to a metal
part of your computer chassis before removing the board from the package.
Follow these steps to install your interface:
1.
Make sure that your computer is powered off. Keep the computer
plugged in so that it remains grounded while you install the GPIB
hardware.
2.
Remove the top cover (or other access panels) to gain access to the
computer expansion slots.
3.
Find an unused expansion slot in your computer. The AT-GPIB/TNT
(PnP) board requires a 16-bit ISA expansion slot.
4.
Remove the corresponding slot cover on the back panel of the
computer.
