5.11.Expansion Outlets & Riser Card Assembly

The APOLLO 120/150 provides PCI/ISA expansion slots for system expansion. Via the specially designed riser card, the system can accommodate either two PCI or one PCI plus one ISA expansion cards; all the connectors of the expansion card will come out from the expansion outlet on the left side of the chassis for further cable connection.

The expansion outlet bracket has to be installed to the system before plugging the riser card to the motherboard PCI/ISA expansion slot.

1.When the system is reverse with the rear side facing you and lower side near you, the expansion outlets are located at the right upper side of the

chassis.

2.Install the expansion window (Fig. 5-1 (11)) to the chassis and fix them together with 2 flat-head screws.

3.If no expansion card is plugged to the riser card, seal the expansion outlets with the 2 metal slips located inside the expansion outlet.

4.The riser card (8) is to be fixed with the metal bracket (9) with two flat-head screws first. Then, plug the riser card to the onboard PCI/ISA slot. Make sure the riser card is firmly plugged to the motherboard to prevent any bad connection.

Due to the internal space limitation, the expansion card can not exceed 190*120 (L*W) mm if no internal FDD is installed. However if an internal FDD is installed, the ISA card can not exceed 170*120 mm.
