2. Installation
Connecting the ribbon cable...
The ribbon cable supplied is for connecting the Eagle to the
computer's internal sound system. This option is not possible for
users of the A3000 (see
System requirements).
Caution!
Incorrectly connecting the ribbon cable can damage your computer.
Carefully follow the instructions in this manual and pay particular
attention to the orientation of the cable. The suppliers of Eagle cannot
be held liable for any damage that results from incorrect installation. If in
any doubt contact your local supplier.
Because of hardware differences you need to know exactly which
type of computer you have. The front panel of the computer shows
the model number. The options are:
• Archimedes 300 & 400 series,
• Archimedes 400/1 series,
• Archimedes 540,
• A5000.
The ribbon cable may seem longer than necessary but this lets it
reach any expansion card slot. Carefully fold any surplus cable
under the expansion card to make sure it doesn't snag with the
computer's cover.
If an existing expansion card is already fitted in the lower slot, the
connector on the computer may be slightly obscured.
The dark band in the following diagrams denotes the red stripe on
one edge of the cable.
