Installing the ITI-2135 and ITI-2147
PCI Bridged Riser Cards
This chapter describes how to install the ITI-2135 and ITI-2147 Riser Cards in
your PCI based bus master compatible computer.
The ITI-2135 and ITI-2147 Risers are Plug and Play on the host system’s PCI
bus, and no configuration of the riser hardware is necessary.
System Requirements
Before you begin the installation procedure, you will need:
•
AN AVAILABLE PCI BUS MASTER EXPANSION SLOT
THAT SUPPLIES 3.3V DC AS REQUIRED BY THE PCI
LOCAL BUS SPECIFICATION OR YOU MAY DAMAGE THE
CARD AS THE PCI TO PCI BRIDGE CHIP OPERATES ON
3.3V. NOTE: LOW COST MOTHERBOARDS DO NOT
SUPPLY 3.3V. Running an IntraServer Technology Riser Card in a
non-compliant system voids all Riser Card warranties.
•
A system that is compatible with the PCI Specification, Version 2.1
•
All Riser Cards will operate in either 32 bit PCI slots (example: Sun
Ultra AXi) or 64 bit PCI slots (example Sun AXMP).
Installing the Riser Cards
Riser Card mounting is OEM system specific. The following are general
guidelines for installing the cards.
1.
Turn OFF the power to the computer system and to all peripherals
directly connected to the system (monitor, printer, external SCSI
enclosures, etc.).
2.
Unplug the system from the AC power line.
3.
Use an anti-static strap or precautions to avoid static discharge to
your computer system or the ITI-2135 or ITI-2147 Riser Card.
4.
Remove the access cover from your system (refer to the system’s
documentation).
