Install an Add-in Card

The performance and non-display computers support half-length, full-height
add-in cards. Half-length PCI cards are 106.68 mm (4.2 in.) high by 175.26 mm
(7.0 in.) long.

The following table lists onboard PCI slots and configurations supported by the
performance and non-display computers.

The PCI slot supports a maximum load of 4 W. Make sure your card does not
exceed its thermal ratings. When the computer is running at its maximum rated
temperature, the ambient temperature in the PCI slot with a 4 W fanless card in
operation may reach 80 °C (176 °F). With a 1 W load, the ambient temperature
may reach 70 °C (158 °F).

Follows these steps to install an add-in card (the performance computer is shown).

1. Follow the steps for

IMPORTANT

Even though the standard computer has onboard PCI slots, its chassis design
prevents it from supporting add-in card installation.

ATTENTION: Add-in cards are sensitive to ESD and require careful handling.

Hold cards only by the edges.

Do not touch the card connectors, components, or circuits.

After removing an add-in card, place it on a flat, static-free surface, component

side up.

Do not slide the card over any surface.

IMPORTANT

Use an antistatic wrist strap connected to the work surface, and properly
grounded tools and equipment.
