2.3 Installing the Workstation Interface Board and VGA
Module
All three PowerStorm 1000 graphics subsystems require that a Workstation Interface
Board be installed in the AlphaStation system. The entry and full PowerStorm 1000

system and connected to the Standard Resolution Module with a pass-through video cable
for console output to be displayed.
Perform the following procedure to install the Workstation Interface Board and the VGA
Module in the AlphaStation system:

of the system.
