Installing the Host Adapter

Inserting the Host Adapter in a PCI Slot
WARNING:
Turn
OFF
power to your computer and attached
devices before you remove the computer
cover.
1
Remove the cover from the computer case.
2
Locate an unused PCI expansion slot that sup-
ports bus mastering. Make sure this slot is not
obstructed by other system hardware.
PCI bus slots are usually white or ivory and are
shorter than ISA or EISA slots. Usually there are
three PCI slots. One of these may be a shared slot.
That is, it may have an ISA or EISA connector and
a PCI connector, but only one kind of board can
be inserted in the slot at any one time.
3
Remove the corresponding expansion slot cover
from the computer chassis and save the screw.
4
Hold the host adapter directly over the bus mas-
ter PCI slot and insert the end of the board in the
card guide. Carefully press the bus connector on
the bottom of the host adapter down into the slot.
5
Attach the host adapter bracket to the computer
chassis with the screw from the expansion slot
cover that you removed.
Note:
Do not replace the computer cover or
reconnect the power yet!
