Ocean Optics ADC1000 ISA-bus - Manual (Page 2)

Install the ADC1000 (or PC2000)
1. Turn off the computer and remove the computer cover.
2. Ground yourself to the computer chassis or power supply and remove the A/D card from its static-shielded bag.
3. If necessary, change the position of the switches on the A/D board. Position the switches to match the available
settings you found in the previous section -- numbers not being used by other hardware devices. See pages 5
and 6 for switch setting positions.
4. Find an open ISA-bus slot and remove the slot protector.
5. Insert the A/D card into an available expansion slot on the motherboard by gently rocking the card into the slot.
Make sure the card is fully seated in the motherboard before screwing the tab on the A/D card to the computer.
Do not bend the card or move it from side to side once it is seated in the slot.
6. For the ADC1000, attach the D37 end of the cable to the card and the D25 end to the spectrometer. For the
PC2000, attach the desired optical fiber to the SMA connector on the PC2000. Reinstall the cover.
