8.1 EMBEDDED OR COMPACT PCI INSTALLATION
There are many different styles and types of Embedded System platforms that utilize 3U 
CPCI expansion slots. This section contains a generic installation procedure. Please 
refer to your User's manual for more detailed instructions on installing the adapter in an 
Embedded or CompactPCI system. 
 
Step 1 - Shut down the power to the computer system and remove the power cord and 
any peripheral cables. 
 
Step 2 - Align the CPCI connectors and the CPCI SBC or carrier connectors and push 
slide in to connectors mate. Once mated, press down firmly on the 3U CPCI card until it 
is completely seated in the connectors on the CPCI backplane. Re-attach the power
