Getting Started Board Installation To install the host adapter in your EISA system, the chassis cover must be removed and the motherboard exposed. Always refer to your EISA system documentation for instructions on removing the chassis cover and adding option boards, such as the AHA-2740 Series of host adapters. WARNING Turn OFF and disconnect power to the system and external equipment before removing the chassis cover or attempting any motherboard modifications. To install the AHA-2740 Series of host adapters in your EISA computer system: ® 1 Remove the cover of your EISA computer system to expose the EISA bus slots on the motherboard. 2 Locate an unused EISA slot in your system which supports bus master operations (refer to the host computer system documentation for details) and remove the corresponding slot cover. 3 Carefully remove the host adapter from the antistatic bag. Place the host adapter on top of the bag if you need to set it down. 4 Align and insert the host adapter in the EISA slot. Secure the host adapter in your system. Note EISA boards require firmer seating than typical ISA expansion boards. Make sure the host adapter is fully seated in its slot. Adaptec AHA-2740 Series User's Manual Stock Number: 510381-00 / Rev.
