Black Box SCSI-2 LVD manual Inserting the Adapter in a PCI slot

ULTRA2 LVD SCSI HOST ADAPTER

6.Holding the SCSI Host Adapter by the mounting bracket and card edge, with it oriented so that the external connectors are facing the right way, insert the Adapter in the PCI slot. Press it down firmly so the contacts are securely seated in the slot. See Figure 4-1 on the next page.

CAUTION!

Though the PCI connector is keyed to prevent cards like the Adapter from being inserted incorrectly, it is possible to damage the Adapter by forcing it into other types of connectors.

7.When the Adapter is firmly seated, secure its metal bracket to the PC’s chassis with the screw you removed in step 3.

8.(Optional) Most computers have one or more hard-drive-activity LEDs on their front panel. If you want to, you can use your own cabling (because we do not include cables for this purpose) to attach one of these indicators to the Adapter’s four-pin LED connector, J3 (see Figure 3-2 on page 19 and Figure 4-2 on the next page). Once you do so, the LED will light whenever there is activity involving the attached Adapter anywhere on the SCSI bus.
