Step 2. Remove the host adapter from the packaging and check that it
is not damaged.
Figure 1.1 illustrates an example of this host adapter board.
Also refer to Chapter 2 to see more detailed drawings of the
2 Gbit/s host adapter boards.
Step 3. Switch off the computer and unplug power cords for all
components in your system.
Step 4. Remove the cover from your computer per the instructions in
the user’s manual for your system to access the PCI slots.
Caution: Ground yourself by touching a metal surface before
removing the cabinet top. Static charges on your body can
damage electronic components. Handle plug-in boards by
the edge; do not touch board components or gold
connector contacts. The use of a static ground strap is
recommended.
Step 5. Locate the slots for PCI plug-in board installation.
Refer to the computer’s user’s manual to confirm the location of
the PCI slots.
This host adapter requires a 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slot that allows
bus master operation. If a 32-bit PCI slot is used, the portion of
the J1 connector farthest from the bracket remains uninserted.
See
Figure 1.2 .
Note: For this host adapter to function as a 64-bit device, it must
be inserted in a 64-bit PCI slot. If the host adapter is
inserted in a 32-bit PCI slot, it will function as a 32-bit
device.
Step 6. On the back of the computer, remove the blank bracket panel
that is aligned with the PCI slot you intend to use. Save the
bracket screw.
