Adding or Replacing a Non-Hot-Pluggable PCI Adapter
To add or replace an adapter, do the following:
1. Open the front and rear rack doors, and place the system into the service position as described in
"D20 Service Position" on page 113.
2. Shut down the system as described in "Stopping and Starting the System" on page 42.
3. Disconnect the power source to the system.
Note: This system may be equipped with a second power supply. Before continuing with this
procedure, ensure that the system has been completely disconnected from its power source.
4. Open the service access cover as described in "Service Access Cover Removal" on page 115.
5. Refer to the PCI Adapter Placement Reference for information regarding slot restrictions for adapters
that can be used in this subsystem.
6. If necessary, remove the adapter expansion slot shield.
7. Before handling any card, board, or memory DIMM, be sure to use your electrostatic discharge strap
to minimize static-electric discharge. Refer to "Handling Static-Sensitive Devices" on page 42.
8. If necessary, remove the adapter from the antistatic package.
Attention: Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the adapter.
9. Place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface.
10. Set any jumpers or switches as instructed by the adapter's manufacturer.
11. Carefully grasp the adapter by its top edge, and align the adapter with the expansion slot and its
connector on the PCI riser card.
12. Press the adapter firmly into its connector.
Attention: When you install an adapter into your subsystem, be sure that it is completely and
correctly seated in its connector.
13. Lower the adapter retaining seat onto the PCI adapter EMC shield/connector faceplate. Rotate the
adapter retainer clip over the adapter retaining seat until it comes to a stop.
14. Close and then secure the service access cover with the three thumbscrews located on its back
edge.
15. Connect the adapter cables.
16. Reconnect the power source to the system.
17. Route the cables through the cable-management arm.
18. Push the system drawer back into the operating position as described in "D20 Operating Position" on
page 114.
