Installing an Expansion Board
Your workstation contains expansion slots, as shown in the "Internal
Components" section of this chapter.
1.
Turn off the workstation and any external devices, then disconnect the
power cord from the grounded AC outlet. Disconnect the network
cable and any external devices from the system.
2.
Remove the workstation access panel and locate the correct vacant slot
in the workstation chassis.
3.
Remove the screw securing the expansion slot cover, then remove the
slot cover from the slot, as illustrated.
Figure 4-10.
4.
Slide the expansion board into the expansion slot and press it firmly
into place.
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic com-
ponents of the workstation or optional boards. Before beginning
these procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static
electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal object. See
"Appendix B" of this guide for more information.
IMPORTANT: On a power-managed system, the power cord MUST be
disconnected from the grounded AC outlet.
