Danger: You are installing the card in a machine that operates with voltages that can be dangerous. Follow the steps after this warning to protect yourself and to prevent damage to the PC components. 4. Protect yourself, the card, and your server by taking these precautions: • Shut down the server software and turn off the power to your server. • Use only insulated or non-conducting tools. • Hold the Gigabit Ethernet Card by the edges and place it on an antistatic surface only. • Check the card for visible signs of damage, particularly to the connector on the edge of the card. Never attempt to install a damaged card. Installing Your GA622T Copper Gigabit Ethernet Card To install your GA622T Copper Gigabit Ethernet Card: 1. Remove the PC cover. 2. Choose an available 32-bit or 64-bit PCI expansion slot (PCI slots are usually the shorter slots) and remove the corresponding back plate from the PC chassis. 3. Insert the card into the PCI expansion slot. Note: To avoid damaging any components on the card, handle it by the edges, using your thumbs to push it securely into the PCI slot. Do not use excessive force, but make sure the card is fully inserted into the slot to prevent the PC operating system from freezing at startup. The connector dock in a 32-bit PCI slot is shorter than in a 64-bit PCI slot. When installed in a 32-bit PCI slot, part of the connector edge remains undocked.This situation is normal. 4. Fasten the card to the rear of the computer chassis by tightening the screw that is on the PC. 5. Replace the PC cover and reconnect the power cord to the PC. hardware installation 2-7
