The CIO-DAC##-I BASE ADDRESS switch can be set for address in the range of
000-3FEh so it should not be hard to find a free address area for your board. If not
using IBM prototyping cards or any other board which occupies these addresses,
300-31Fh are free to use. Address not specifically listed, such as 390-39Fh, are free.

3.3 Installing the CIO-DAC##-I in the Computer

1. Turn PC power off.

2. Remove the cover of your computer. Please be careful not to dislodge any of the
cables installed on the boards in your computer as you slide the cover off.

3. Locate an empty expansion slot in your computer.

4. Push the board firmly down into the expansion bus connector. If it is not seated
fully it can fail to work and could short circuit the PC bus power onto a PC bus
signal. This could damage the motherboard in your PC as well as the board.
