Hardware Installation

Note! Make sure you have installed the driver first before installing the card
(Please refer to the software installation in Chapter 3 Driver Setup &
Installation).
When you install the MIC-3612 Card, be sure the DLL driver of the MIC-3612 installa-
tion is complete, you can now go on to install the MIC-3612 card in your CPCI com-
puter. But it is suggested that you should refer to the computer user manual or
related documentation if you have any doubt. Please follow the steps below to install
the card on your system.
To install a card:
1. Remove one cover on the unused slot of your CPCI computer slot.
2. Hold the Card Vertically. Be sure that the card is pointing in the correct direction.
The components of the card should be pointing to the right-hand side and the
black handle of the card should be pointing to lower edge of the chassis.
3. Holding the lower handle, pull the handle down to unlock it.
4. Insert the MIC-3612 card into the CPCI chassis carefully by sliding the lower
edges of the card into the card guides.
5. Please push the card into slot gently by sliding the card along the card guide
until CN1 meets the long needle on the backplane.
Note! If your card is correctly positioned and has been slid all the way into the
chassis, the handle should match the rectangular holes. If not, remove
the card from the card guide and repeat step 3 again. Do not try to install
a card by forcing it into the chassis.
6. Push the card into the right place; secure the card by pushing the handle on to
lock it into place.
Note! The Blue LED on the front panel details the installation status of the card
while the system is on.
In step 5, when CN1 meets the long needle on the backplane, Blue LED
will light; after step 6, the system can configure the card automatically,
and the Blue LED is turned off when the system finished the device con-
figuration.
If the system power is off, you can install the card step by step without
attending Blue LED's state.
