Page 5 of 15
Before you come into contact with any electronic components make
sure that you are grounded and have discharged any static electricity!
1. Turn the PC off and open the case so that you have access to the rear slot-covers.
2. Select any free slot and remove its slot-cover. (Note: no ISA slot will be required).
3. Mount the slot-adapter in the space left by the slot-cover.
4. Attach an internal power cable to the adapter. Use the supplied Y-cable if no spare power cables
are available.
5. Make sure that there are no loose parts (screws, washers, etc) inside the PC and close the cover.
6. Connect the slot-adapter to a free RS-232 interface (COM port). Use either the 25 pol sub-D con-
nector or the long (2m) cable with the 9 pol sub-D connector depending on how the RS-232 inter-
faces are configured. Use the
lower
connector on the slot-adapter.
7. Now use the long (5m) connection cable to attach the slot-adapter with the DigaStudio Box. On the
slot-adapter use the
upper
connection, on the DigaStudio Box use the connection labelled
PC
.

The necessary software is included on diskette or will be sent via email
. The software is comprised of
