Before connecting the power cord, check that the expansion chassis
On/Off switch is set to the OFF position. This switch is located on the
right side of the front of the chassis.
NOTE
If at all possible, plug all power cords from the MAGMA expansion
chassis and your host computer into a shared power strip,
preferably one that has surge and noise suppression circuitry built
into it.

Install CardBus PC Card

NOTE
CardBus PC Cards can only be used in systems that support
CardBus. A special keying mechanism prevents insertion in systems
that do not support 32-bit CardBus PC cards.
Begin installation of your CardBus card by first powering down your
laptop computer. Use the procedures for shutting down your operating
system and shutting off power to your system provided in your owner's
manual or system documentation.
Insert the CardBus card with the MAGMA logo side up, (gold strip up)
into the PC Card slot. Gently push the card until it is seated firmly. If it
doesn't seem to fit correctly, try turning the card over, or try the other
PC Card slot – if your laptop has another slot.
For more information on using CardBus PC Cards, please refer to your
computer's user manual or system documentation.

Recheck the Installation

Check your installation before powering up the MAGMA expansion
chassis for the first time. Although the power supply has an over voltage
protection device built into it, it may not "trip" in time to fully protect a
device that has been improperly connected, or whose power cable has
been damaged.
