3 Select an appropriate expansion slot and remove its

expansion cover plate.

4 Insert the adapter in the EISA slot and secure the screw.

If you have a computer with slots other than EISA slots, be
sure to insert the 3C592 EISA adapter only in an EISA slot.
Figure 2-2 compares the size of the slots in an EISA computer
that has PCI slots. EISA slots are longer than PCI slots and

The adapter backplate should be flush with the computer
chassis. Be sure that the connector fingers of the adapter are
completely seated in the slot.

5 Replace the computer cover and reconnect all previously

connected cables.

If you are installing multiple EtherLink EISA adapters in a
computer, you must run the EISA configuration program
after you install each adapter. See the discussions about
installing multiple EISA adapters in Chapter 4.
