Installing the Adapter
Note – Refer to your system installation or service manual for detailed instructions
for the following tasks.
1. Power off your system and open the system unit.
2. Attach the adhesive copper strip of the wrist strap to the metal casing of the
power supply. Wrap the other end twice around your wrist, with the adhesive side
against your skin.
3. Holding the PCI adapter by the edges, unpack and place it on an antistatic
surface.
4. Remove the PCI filler panel from the slot in which you want to insert the Sun
Quad FastEthernet PCI adapter.
5. Holding the PCI adapter by the edges, align the adapter edge connector with the
PCI slot. Slide the adapter face plate into the small slot at the end of the PCI
opening.
6. Applying even pressure at both corners of the adapter, push the PCI adapter until
it is firmly seated in the slot.
Caution – Do not use excessive force when installing the adapter into the PCI slot.
You may damage the adapter’s PCI connector. If the adapter does not seat properly
when you apply even pressure, remove the adapter and carefully reinstall it again.
7. If necessary, reinstall the PCI filler panel in the unused PCI opening.
8. Detach the wrist strap and close the system unit.
9. Connect Ethernet cables to the Sun Quad FastEthernet PCI adapter and to an
Ethernet network.
