Industrial Computers for Hazardous Locations
Install an Add-in Card
Follow these steps to install an add-in card.
1.
Disconnect power from the computer.
2.
Remove the back cover from the computer as detailed on
3.
Remove the one screw that secures the slot cover.
Save the screw for the add-in card install.
4.
Remove and store the slot cover.
5.
Hold the add-in card by its edges and remove it from its protective packaging.
6.
Install a PCIe or PCI add-in card.
For a PCIe add-in card:
a. Connect the PCIe add-in board to the corresponding slot on the factory-supplied
PCIe riser card.
b. Verify that the add-in card is properly seated in the riser card.
c. Use the slot cover screw to secure the add-in card to the slot.
IMPORTANT
For hazardous locations, please note the following:
• The integrated display computers with a resistive touch screen were evaluated for use
with a PCIe add-in card.
• The integrated display computer with a PCAP touch screen and non-display computers
were evaluated for use with PCIe and PCI add-in cards.
IMPORTANT
Use an anti-static wriststrap that is connected to the work surface, and properly grounded
tools and equipment.
Hold any card by its edges to avoid touching the contacts on the bottom or circuitry on the
board.
ATTENTION:
Do not discard the slot cover. If the add-in card is removed in the future,
the slot cover and its screw must be reinstalled to maintain agency access requirements.
