5. Unscrew and remove the slot cover. Retain the screw to use when you install 

the QLA12160 board.

6. Place the QLA12160 board into the slot. Carefully press the board into the 

slot until it seats firmly.

NOTE: QLA12160 boards are designed with the components on the 

opposite side compared with non-PCI boards.

7. Secure the QLA12160 board with the slot cover screw.

8. Install the cable.

Internal: Connect the cable from the devices to the J3 connector on the 
QLA12160 board.

External: Connect a SCSI cable from the devices to the J1 connector 
and/or the J2 connector.

NOTE: If you are attaching an external device, you must provide your own 

cable.

9. Carefully reinstall the computer cover. Insert and tighten the computer cover 

screws.

10. Power up all external SCSI devices, then power up the PC and observe the 

monitor. The BIOS lists all SCSI devices attached to the QLA12160 board. 
For example:

Write down and store the SCSI device information for future use. You can 
access the same information using Fast!UTIL 

(see appendix A)

. This 

information is helpful when troubleshooting or installing other devices.

If there is no hard disk drive attached to your computer, a ROM BIOS NOT 
INSTALLED message is displayed after the device listing.

When the information displayed on your monitor is correct (all installed devices are 
listed with the correct SCSI ID, device type, etc.), congratulations! You have 
successfully installed the QLA12160 board in your computer.
