HP 98628A Datacomm Interface
7 to 0 as shown in Figure 5-24. This sets up 8 bits/character and no
parity.
9. Insert the Interface.
a. Remove the painted cover plates from the back of your computer until
you find an empty even-numbered slot. (Slots are numbered from the
top down, so the top-most slot is number 1, the next slot down is
number 2, etc.) Do not remove the silver cover plates from the bottom
of a Series 300 computer.
b. Insert the Datacomm Interface, component side up, into the empty
even-numbered slot. Tighten the thumb screws on the metal end plate
until the end plate is flush with the back of the computer.
c. If you changed the select code of the Datacomm Interface in step 2, find
this number in the set of select code labels supplied with the interface.
Affix this label to the metal end plate.
d. If you have other interface or accessory cards to install, leave the cover
plates off; otherwise, replace them.
10. Record the Select Code.
11. Make a note that select code 20 (or the alternate select code you chose
in step 2) has been used and is no longer available. Use the "Select Code
Record" form on the Chapter 5, "Interface Cards" tab for this purpose.
Verification Test
1. Plug in the power cord and turn your computer on. If you have systems
on-line that the computer can boot, press the space bar a few times to
suspend the automatic booting process.
2. Check the list of components displayed on the left-hand side of the screen:
• If the message,
HP98628,
appears in the list, you have correctly installed
the Datacomm Interface .
• If the message above does not appear, repeat the installation procedure,
making sure there are no select code conflicts and that the card is firmly
seated in an even-numbered slot. If the message still does not appear, call
your HP Service Representative for assistance.
