Installation

Note: 

In one system, you can install two intelligent serial cards. Each card can support

up to eight INTEBOX8 connectors boxes, for a total of up to 64 devices per card or 128
serial devices per system.

Installing the Card

1. Make sure that your system is unplugged and you are grounded.

2. Remove the cover of your system (see your computer's user manual for details, if 

necessary) and gently turn your computer onto its side.

3. Locate an empty PCI slot (usually white in color) and remove the metal plate that 

covers the rear bracket. You may need a Phillips screwdriver to perform this step. 
Hang on to the screw!

You will need it to secure the card later.

4. Gently insert the card into the empty slot, making sure it is firmly seated.

5. Secure the card in place using the screw you removed in Step 3 and put your 

computer case back on.

6. Plug the female end of the 37-pin serial cable into the port on the card. Plug the male 

end into the female port on your external connector box. 

7. If you are using multiple connector boxes, plug the two boxes directly together 

using their 37-pin connectors. You can have up to eight connector boxes per card.

8. Turn the computer on.
