Installing the companion digital-input
board
To install the Matrox Corona companion digital-input board:
1. Attach the ribbon cable to the backplane. Note that
although either end of the cable is physically capable of
being attached to the backplane, pin 1 of the cable
connector must align with pin 1 of the backplane pins. A
small triangular notch denotes pin 1 on the cable's
connector, whereas a white V points to pin 1 on the
backplane (the pin is also labeled "1").
When properly connected, the stripe on the ribbon cable
should be aligned with the pin 1 side of the backplane.
