The IEEE 1394 adapter shipped as Option 001 to the HP E8491B is an
OHCI-compatible PCI-to-IEEE 1394 Host Adapter. Included with the
adapter is a cable for powering IEEE 1394 devices and a 4.5m interface
cable.
Refer to your computer's documentation for specific
instructions about the installation of PCI adapters.
Note
If your personal computer (PC) currently has a Solectron OHCI403 PCI-to-
IEEE 1394 host adapter, a later version OHCI-compatible PCI-to-IEEE
1394 host adapter or a built-in IEEE 1394 port, proceed to Step 2: Installing
the HP E8491 Interconnect.
