Before inserting the Magma ExpressCard, power down your laptop computer. Use the procedures for shutting down your operating system and shutting off power to your system provided in your owner’s manual or system documentation.

Insert the Magma ExpressCard/34 module with the logo side up, into the ExpressCard slot on your computer. Gently push the card until it is firmly seated.

NOTE

The Magma ExpressCard module can only be used in a computer system that contains an ExpressCard slot. It will not function in CardBus or PCMCIA slots.

NOTE

If your laptop’s ExpressCard slot is “spring-loaded”, be sure that your ExpressCard is inserted correctly. It is very easy for this style slot to partially release a card if touched slightly.

For more information on using ExpressCard modules, please refer to your computer’s user manual or system documentation.

Desktop or Server Installation

Power down your computer. Use the procedures for shutting down your operating system and shutting off power to your system provided in your owner’s manual or system documentation.

After the host computer is off and all power cords disconnected, remove the cover and insert the Magma PCIe host card (EEX1) into a vacant PCI Express (PCIe) slot by gently pushing the card until it is firmly seated. Be sure to secure the card with a retaining screw.
