Safety First!
As you install
hardware components,
observe the following
general precautions to
avoid damage to your
equipment and yourself.
Connector Types
These connector types are used to connect the E-MU 1010 hardware components. They
will be referred to by the name shown in the first column of the following chart:
Warning:
The E-MU 1010 PCI Card has been designed to use readily available and
inexpensive standard computer system cables to make it easy for you to find
replacement cables if your original cables become damaged or lost. However, because
these standard cables types are used for other purposes, you must use caution to avoid
connecting the cables incorrectly. Please verify that all cables are connected only to the
proper components before powering up your system.
• To avoid possible permanent damage to your hardware, make sure that all connec-
tions are made with the host computer’s power off.
Unplug the computer’s
power cable to make sure that the computer is not in sleep mode
.
• Take care to avoid static damage to any components of your system. Internal
computer surfaces, the E-MU 1010 PCI board and the interfaces are susceptible to
electrostatic discharge, commonly known as “static.” Electrostatic discharge can
damage or destroy electronic devices. Here are some procedures you can follow
when handling electronic devices in order to minimize the possibility of causing
electrostatic damage:
• Avoid any unnecessary movement, such as scuffing your feet when handling
electronic devices, since most movement can generate additional charges of static
electricity.
• Minimize the handling of the PCI card. Keep it in its static-free package until needed.
Transport or store the board only in its protective package.
• When handling a PCI card, avoid touching its connector pins. Try to handle the
board by its edges only.
• Before installing a PCI card into your computer, you should be grounded. Use a
ground strap to discharge any static electric charge built up on your body. The
ground strap attaches to your wrist and any unpainted metal surface within your
computer. If you don’t have a ground strap, you can ground yourself by touching
the metal case of another piece of grounded equipment.
• Before connecting a cable to your interface or between PCI cards, touch the
connector sleeve of the cable to the sleeve of the jack to which you’ll be connecting
the cable in order to discharge any static build-up.
