Step 2: Install the adapter(s) in the host system

If you are using a SANBlaze host system, the adapters will already be installed for you and you can skip to Step 3. To install the adapter(s) in your own host
system, see the figures below for a sample installation of a SANBlaze host system for Gen4 to guide you for your own installation.
Step 3: Connect PCI Cables Between the Host System and
the SBExpress-RM4
Connect the PCIe cable(s) from the host system (Step 2 above) to the SBExpress-RM4 NVMe Test System (shown below). Please note the
port numbering. For DIP switch settings please refer to the SBExpress-RM/RM4 NVMe User's Guide.

and control various features of the SBExpress-RM4 when used with the SANBlaze software.
