Installing the DuoConnect Adapter

5Insert the DuoConnect adapter in a PCI expansion slot and

press down firmly until the adapter clicks into place. Then,

replace the slot cover screw. When installed properly, the

adapter should be level with the expansion slot.

6Connect the DuoConnect adapter internal power connector to a

spare 4-pin mini power connector (similar to the connector on a

floppy drive), as shown below. This connector supplies optional

bus power to the FireWire ports. If your system does not have a

spare power connector, you can buy one at most computer and

electronics stores. Check www.adaptec.com for more information.

7Close the computer cabinet and reattach the power cord.
