Installing the Display

Before you install the Dome DX2 display controller, you must set the
DIP switches for your system configuration. See

Moving from Dome C3i to Dome EX Display System

If you are switching from a Dome C3i to a Dome EX display system,
you need to update the firmware on the Dome DX2 board already
installed in your computer system. Do the following:

1 Remove the old DOMEdx2, DOMEmdlib, and DOMEcxtra.

2 Install the new DOMEdx2, DOMEmdlib, and DOMEcxtra on

the existing Dome C3i display system. The firmware is updated
automatically.

3 Replace the Dome C3i display with the Dome EX display.

Warning

In locations where 240V outlets are used, connect the Dome
display only to a center-tapped, 240V, single-phase supply
(only for Canada and the United States).

If you leave the computer turned on, you could get an electric shock
and cause damage to the system components.

Remove the display controller slowly from its package and static-
shielding bag to prevent an electrostatic discharge.

Static electricity can damage the controller. When touching the
board or parts of the motherboard, take these precautions:

• Wear an antistatic wrist strap.

• Discharge your body’s static electricity repeatedly by touching

the power supply or the metal surface of the computer chassis.
