2-20 Installing Asanté MacCon Cards
3Make sure you are grounded: check that your anti-static
wrist strap is properly attached to your wrist and to the
Macintosh chassis.
4Disconnect the speaker, power supply, floppy drive, and
hard drive cables (see Figure 2-15 on page 2-19).
5Slide the larger controller card into the expansion slot on
the motherboard:
Line up the card’s edge connector with the expansion
slot on the motherboard. The card’s component side
should face the inside of the Macintosh.
Gently press on the card until the connector is fully seated.
6Attach the smaller MacCon+ daughter card to the interior
side of the SE/30 back:
Remove the two screws from the bracket.
Align the bracket so the daughter card extends down
from the access port and the external cable connector
sticks through the access port.
Attach the card to the chassis bracket that lines up with
the access port on the back cover.
Secure the daughter card with printed circuit side facing
up, using the two screws.
7Connect the ribbon cable to the controller card keeping it
as flat as possible. Make sure the white dot on the ribbon
cable aligns with the white dot on the connector.
8Close the Macintosh SE/30:
Place the Macintosh SE/30 face down.
Fit the aluminum shield over the external device con-
nectors and around the bottom and sides of the moth-
erboard.
Fit the plastic case over the chassis and snap the case in-
to place. Screw the case shut.
9Connect the Macintosh to the network as described on
page 2-24 in “Connecting the Macintosh to the network.
