Install the Adapter

CAUTION
Do not allow the adapter to contact any part of the
HP NetServer other than the PCI slot during installation.
Do not allow the Battery Backup Unit (on HP NetRAID and
HP NetRAID-3Si adapters) to contact any part of the
HP NetServer during installation. Any such contact could
cause a short in the battery pack and may damage other
electrical components.
To install the adapter:
1. Refer to Worksheet A that you filled out while reading Chapter 4 for the
slot selected for the adapter. If the adapter is already installed, verify that
it is in the correct slot.
2. If there is a slot cover on the PCI slot, remove it.
3. Install the adapter by following the installation instructions for installing
PCI boards in your host system manual and on the chassis labels. Align
the adapter card bus connector into the slot. Ensure that it does not
physically interfere with adjacent cards. Press the card gently but firmly
into the slot to seat it properly. The bottom edge of the card should be
flush with the slot. Secure the adapter to the system chassis with a
mounting screw.
CAUTION The adapter is sensitive to static electricity and can easily be
damaged by improper handling. Using a grounding strap is
recommended.
Before you remove the adapter from the bag, touch a
grounded, unpainted metal surface on the system to discharge
static electricity.
