5-7 Adding PCI Cards
1. 64-bit PCI slot:
The 6011L system board has one 64/32 bit, 33 MHz 5V PCI slot. A riser
card designed specifically for using this slot in a 1U rackmount chassis
isincluded with your system. The riser card allows an installed PCI card
to sit at a 90 degree angle so it can fit inside the chassis. This riser card
accommodates 64 or 32bit, 33 MHz 5 V PCI cards.
2. PCI card installation:
Before installing a PCI add-on card, make sure you choose the correct
riser card for the type of PCI card you are installing (see step 1). Begin
by removing the I/O shield for the PCI slot. Then fully seat the PCI card
into the riser card and screw it into the metal retention rail (shown in
Figure 2-5). Finally, insert the riser card into the PCI slot on the mother-
board, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card.
(See Figure 5-6 for location.) Finish by using a screw to secure the top
of the card shield to the chassis. The I/O shield protects the mother-
board and its components from EMI and aid in proper ventilation, so make
sure there is always a shield covering the slot.
To Remove:
Use your thumbs to gently push each release tab outward.
This should release the DIMM from the slot.
