Inserting the Client Adapter

This section provides instructions for inserting a PC-Cardbus card or PCI card into your computer.

Caution These procedures and the physical connections they describe apply generally to conventional Cardbus slots and PCI expansion slots. In cases of custom or nonconventional equipment, be alert to possible differences in Cardbus slot and PCI expansion slot configurations.

Inserting a PC-Cardbus Card

Step 1 Before you begin, examine the card. One end has a dual-row, 68-pin connector. The card is keyed so it can be inserted only one way into the Cardbus slot.

Note The PC-Cardbus slot, if supported, is usually on the left or right side of a laptop computer, depending on the model.

Step 2 Turn on your computer and let the operating system boot up completely.

Step 3 Hold the card with the Cisco label facing up and insert it into the Cardbus slot, applying just enough pressure to make sure it is fully seated (see Figure 1-3). The green LED lights when the card is inserted properly.

Caution Do not force the card into your computer’s Cardbus slot. Forcing it will damage both the card and the slot. If the card does not insert easily, remove the card and reinsert it.

Note The configuration profiles for PC-Cardbus cards are tied to the slot in which the card is inserted. Therefore, you must always insert your PC-Cardbus card into the same slot or create profiles for both slots. See Chapter 4 for information on creating profiles for your client adapter.
