PREPARING THE ADAPTERS
The FDDI network adapters do not have any jumpers or switches
to set. Each type of FDDI adapter is shipped with its own unique
configuration file that is used by either the Micro Channel or EISA
system configuration programs to set the card’s parameters for
communication between the computer and the FDDI network.

INSTALLING THE ADAPTERS
The following sections contain brief installation procedures. Refer
to the user’s manual that came with your computer for more
detailed information on installing adapters in Micro Channel and
EISA Bus architectures.

The network adapters are sensitive to static discharges. Hold
the adapter by the top of the metal bracket and the opposite top
corner. Avoid contact with the computer bus edge connector
or any of the adapter’s components. Failure to observe all
static discharge precautions could result in damage to the
adapter.
