Notes:
• PCIe cards are static-sensitive devices that require proper
handling. An Anti-Static ESD Wrist Strap (such as Tripp Lite’s
P999-000) or similar device should always be used when
handling.
• Handle the card with care when installing, holding it by the
edges and not the PCI interface connectors.
1.
Turn off the computer you are installing the PCIe
card in, unplug its power cord and disconnect all
peripheral devices (e.g. monitor, keyboard, mouse,
printer, etc.).
2.
Referring to your computer’s technical
documentation, remove the cover from your
computer.
3.
Locate an available PCI Express slot (x1, x4, x8
and x16 slots supported), and remove the metal
bracket from the back of the computer to allow for
insertion of the card.
4.
Gently insert the PCIe interface connector on the
card into the PCIe slot, making sure it connects
securely and evenly.
5.
Reattach the metal bracket to the back of the
computer.
6.
Place the cover back onto the computer.
Re-connect its power cords and peripheral devices.
