User Manual for ALP-DANTE
6.2 Installing the card
Insert the card in the available PCIe slot and press to position it firmly.
Tighten the screw fixing the bracket to the chassis or lock the card using the device provided for this
purpose on your computer.
6.3 Internal LEDs
The ALP card features two internal LEDs on the edge of its mother board, as shown below. The state
of these LEDs can be seen when the PC cover is open.
If the card and its on-board firmware are initialised correctly, LED 1 must be lit solid green, and LED
2 must flash every second (1 Hz).
If LED 2 flashes faster (twice per second - 2 Hz), this means that the firmware version that has been
uploaded to the card is corrupted, and the card is running the backup factory firmware version. It is
then necessary to re-install the appropriate firmware version.
