ARDS
All of the I/O cards are installed in either Slot 1 or Slot 2, below the
main processor board. The installation procedures for all cards is
basically the same and involves these steps:
Removing the card from its protective bag
Removing the filler panel over the desired card slot
Inserting the card into the slot so it connects with the backplane
Fastening the card to the backplane
Connecting the I/O card connections to the network or modem(s)
To install an I/O card:
1 Remove the card from its antistatic bag.
Do not touch pins, leads, or solder connections on the card. Handle the
card by the edges only.
2 Inspect the card for shipping damage.
If you find any damage, contact the shipping company to file a report.
If the I/O card must be returned to the factory, ship it in the original
shipping carton and antistatic bag. If the original carton was damaged
in shipment, repack the card in a carton that provides equivalent
protection.
3 If you have not already done so, write down the serial number shown
on the component side of the card.
You will need this information if you have to contact your supplier for a
replacement.
4 Select a slot for the I/O card, either slot 1 or 2.
5 Remove the face plate from the slot you have selected.
To remove the plate, loosen the captive screws and slide the face plate
away from the slot, as shown in Figure C-4.
