Installation
Overview
Software for these products is distributed on CD-ROM. Updates are
available on our web site (www.abaco.com/products/avionics).
When installing a CEI-x20 device under Windows, you must install the
software before installing the hardware. When installing a CEI-x20
device under Linux, you must install the hardware first.
It is recommended that you examine your system for resource conflicts
before installation. When upgrading from an older version, uninstall the
previous version of software before installing the new version. Software
installation instructions are provided in the Quick Start Guide.
Installing the Board
Before handling a circuit board, allocate a static free workstation and be
sure you are properly grounded. Then remove the board from its static
protective bag and inspect it.
Be aware of the potential for damage to this (and any other) circuit card
by static electricity. The board is shipped in a protective, anti-static bag
and must be handled according to static prevention procedures. Failure
to protect the board from static electricity may result in damage to the
board. Such damage may be evident immediately or not for years.
Each board is tested and shipped with the default settings described in this
manual. Resource conflicts or application requirements may cause you to
make adjustments to the default board settings. For this reason, the
following sections provide detailed information about features that may be
configured on these boards through DIP-switches and jumper settings.
