5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD

4.3 Procedure for Hardware Installation

CAUTION!

The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is static-sensitive. Take the same precautions you would with any static-sensitive device. One such precaution is being aware that some elements of your work environment, such as carpeting, floor mats, dry air from winter heating, etc., can cause static buildup. To prevent a static discharge, touch a grounded surface, other than the PC’s chassis, before handling the Card. Do not touch any components on the Card’s surface, especially the microprocessor chips; handle the Card by the edges only.

Follow these instructions to install the 5250 Remote Emulator Card in your PC:

1. Turn OFF and unplug the PC and all devices attached to it.

CAUTION!

Make sure that the PC is OFF and its power supply is unplugged and (if possible) its power cord removed before you begin installing the Card or connecting any of its cables. Don’t turn the PC back ON until you have completely finished installing the Card and connecting all of its cables.

WARNUNG!

Vergewisseren Sie sich, dass die PC ausgeschaltet und die Netzzuleitung entfernt ist bevor irgendwelche Kabel angeschlossen werden. Schalten Sie Gerät nicht wieder ein bevor alle Kabel angeschlossen sind. Zur vollständigen Trennung vom Netz ist der Netzstecker zu ziehen.

2.Disconnect the PC from its monitor. If the monitor is sitting on top of the PC’s case, lift the monitor off and set it aside.

3.Follow the instructions in the PC’s manual for removing the PC’s cover. Set the cover aside and save the screws for reassembly.

4.Locate an empty expansion slot. Using a screwdriver (or, if necessary, a socket wrench), remove the slot’s cover. Keep the slot cover’s screw close by.

5.Touch a grounded surface such as the PC’s chassis to dissipate any static charge you might have built up, then carefully remove the 5250 Remote Emulator Card from its anti-static bag.
