Driver Installation
We recommend you to install the driver before you install the PCIE-1753 card into
your system, since this will guarantee a smooth installation process.
The Advantech device driver installation for the PCIE-1753 card is included on the
companion CD-ROM that is shipped with your DA&C card package, or you can
download it from Advantech official website.

Hardware Installation
Note!
Make sure you have installed the driver first before you install the card.
After the device driver installation is completed, you can now go on to install the
PCIE-1753 card in any PCI Express slot on your computer. Follow the steps below to
install the card on your system.
1.
Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord and cables. TURN OFF your
computer before installing or removing any components on the computer.
2.
Remove the cover of your computer.
3.
Remove the slot cover on the back panel of your computer.
4.
Touch the metal part on the surface of your computer to neutralize the static
electricity that might be on your body.
5.
Insert the PCIE-1753 card into a PCI Express slot. Hold the card only by its
edges and carefully align it with the slot. Insert the card firmly into place. Use of
excessive force must be avoided, otherwise the card might be damaged.
6.
Fasten the bracket of the PCI Express card on the back panel of the computer.
7.
Connect appropriate accessories to the PCI Express card.
8.
Replace the cover of your computer chassis. Re-connect the cables you
removed in step 2.
9.
Plug in the power cord and turn on the computer.
Note!
In case you installed the card without installing the Device Drivers first,
Win95/98/ME will recognize your card as an "unknown device" after
rebooting, and will prompt you to provide the necessary driver. Ignore
the prompting messages (just click the Cancel button) and set up the
driver according to the steps described in 2.3 Driver Installation.
