Installing PC/104 modules

The CPU card's PC/104 connectors give you the flexibility to attach

traditional plug-in expansion cards, but save space and valuable slots.

Installing these modules on the CPU card is quick and simple. The
following steps show how to mount the PC/104 modules:

1. Remove the CPU card from your system paying particular attention

to the safety instructions already mentioned.

2. Make any jumper or link changes required to the CPU card now.

Once the PC/104 module is mounted you may have difficulty in
accessing these.

3. Normal PC/104 modules have male connectors and mount directly

onto the main card. However, to ensure better bus matching, the
connectors on the CPU card and the PC/104 module are both
female. For this reason, you may need to use the "male-male"
adapter included with the CPU card in order to properly connect
your PC/104 module. (Refer to the diagram on the following page.)

4. Mount the PC/104 module onto the CPU card by pressing the

module firmly but carefully onto the mounting connectors.

5. Secure the PC/104 module onto the CPU card using the four

mounting spacers and srews.
