2.3 Hardware Installation
After the DLL driver installation is completed, you can now go on to
install the PCI-1714 series card in any PCI slot on your computer. It is
recommended that you refer to the computer's user manual or related
documentation if you have any doubts. Please follow the steps below to
install the card in your system.
Note:
1.
Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord and cables.
TURN OFF your computer before installing or removing any com-
ponents on the computer.
2.
Remove the cover of your computer.
3.
Remove the slot cover on the back panel of your computer.
4.
Touch the metal part on the surface of your computer to neutralize
the static electricity that might be in your body.
5.
Insert the card into a PCI slot. Hold the card only by its edges and
carefully align it with the slot. Insert the card firmly into place. Use
of excessive force must be avoided, or the card might be damaged.
6.
Fasten the bracket of the PCI-1714 card on the back panel rail of
the computer with screws.
7.
Connect appropriate accessories (such as source /sync signal
cables, wiring terminals, etc. if necessary) to the card.
8.
Replace the cover of your computer chassis. Re-connect the cables
you removed in Step 1.
9.
Plug in the power cord and turn on the computer.
Note:
In case you installed the card without installing the DLL
driver first, Windows 98,2000 and XP will recognize
your card as an "unknown device" after rebooting, and
will prompt you to provide the necessary driver. You
should ignore the prompting messages (just click the
Cancel button) and set up the driver according to the
steps described in 2.2 Driver Installation.
Make sure you have installed the driver before
you install the card. (Please refer to 2.2 Driver
Installation)
