5.7 Physical
Installation
Prior to installing SPCI2S or SPCI4 boards, it is necessary to power down the
host computer and disconnect any network interfaces.
Having ensured that all power is off/disconnected, select a vacant expansion
slot (If in doubt, refer to your host manual for advice).
If blanking plates are fitted, remove them by undoing the retaining screw at
the top. Retain the blanking plates for possible future use.
Align the board with the card guide and the slot in the computer and press
home until fully inserted.
Care should be taken to ensure correct alignment of the connector and card
guide before final insertion to prevent damage.
Once the board is fully inserted, secure the board with the retaining screw at
the top.
Reconnect the power and network interfaces, then switch on the host
computer.
Once the board is physically installed in your host, refer to the section on
software installation in the
