AT-1500 Plug and Play
6
CAUTION
This LAN adapter card is for use only with IBM or compatible
UL listed personal computers that have installation
instructions detailing user installation of card-cage
accessories. Installation should be performed with precautions
to prevent damage to static-sensitive components.
NOTE
The AT-1500 Plug and Play card uses the bus-mastering
method for data transfers. Card slots 7 and 8 (often the two
right-most slots as viewed from the back of the computer)
often do not support bus mastering. Check your computer’s
manual.
1. Make sure the computer’s power is turned OFF.
TIP:
When you install the AT-1500FT Plug and Play,
temporarily remove the shields from the fiber-optics cable
connectors to give the connectors more clearance.
2. Following the manufacturer’s instructions for adding a
card, install the AT-1500 in an expansion slot in your
computer. The slot should be a long ISA (16-bit) slot or an
EISA slot that supports bus mastering.
NOTE
If you are not using an EISA slot, skip step 3.
3. Run your computer’s EISA configuration utility and make
a note of the I/O resources (I/O Address Range, Interrupt
and DMA) available for the adapter card. Follow the EISA
utility instructions, and insert the Allied Telesyn
CardAssistant diskette when the EISA utility asks for the
“vendor diskette”.
