development board.
We recommend the standoffs be installed in order to hold the two boards at the
proper heights. The shorter standoffs should be installed in the four corners of the
Cyclone III development board. Two of the longer standoffs should be installed in
the mounting holes near the audio connectors on the Data Conversion HSMC. This
minimizes the stress on the HSM connector.
Before powering up, prepare the board by performing the following steps:
1. If other cards are plugged into the HSMC ports, remove them.

2. Ensure that the POWER switch SW2 is in the OFF
(or DOWN) position. Refer to
