GETTING STARTED

3.
Take the following steps if you want to add the PC/104-PCMCIA-1 to your system:
1. Turn off the power supply of your system and unplug the power cord (if possible).
2. Disconnect all cables and carefully remove the system cover.
3. Wear a grounding wrist strap when handling the board. If no wrist strap is
available, often touch a grounded surface to discharge any static electricity that
may build up in your body. Be sure that your system is grounded.
4. Check the configuration jumpers of your PC/104-PCMCIA-1 for correct settings to
avoid resource conflicts with other devices or missing default jumpers.
5. Insert the PC/104-PCMCIA-1 module into your system by plugging it into a PC/104
bus connector. Take care that Pin 1 of all the boards in your stack fit together. (*)
6. Mount the module with bolts and screws to the PC/104 stack (if required). Avoid
mechanical damage to the board by using bolts that have the correct height and
screws that have the correct diameter.
7. Put the system cover back and reconnect the cables as well as the power supply.
Restart your system and install the PCMCIA software.
Note: (*) If the PC/104 connectors are plugged together in the wrong way, all or one of
the boards in your system might get electrically damaged or even destroyed.
