Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Adapter Installation and User’s Guide • February 2001

Installing the Adapter Without Dynamic
Reconfiguration

To Install the Adapter

Note –

The following instructions describe the basic tasks required to install the

adapter. Refer to your system installation or service manual for detailed PCI adapter
installation instructions.

1. Halt and power off your system.

2. Power off all of the peripherals connected to your system.

3. Open the system unit.

4. Attach the adhesive copper strip of the antistatic wrist strap to the metal casing of

the power supply. Wrap the other end twice around your wrist, with the adhesive
side against your skin.

5. Holding the PCI adapter by the edges, unpack it and place it on an antistatic

surface.

6. Using a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver, remove the PCI filler panel from the slot in

which you want to insert the PCI adapter.

Save the filler panel screw for Step 9.

7. Holding the PCI adapter by the edges, align the adapter edge connector with the

PCI slot. Slide the adapter face plate into the small slot at the end of the PCI
opening.
