Prior to installation, you will need to examine the rear card you have selected and make sure it is properly configured for your application. Each rear card is configured by setting straps located on the PC board. To configure the rear cards, you must set the configuration straps. Figure 6 (below) shows the orientation of these straps. Each strap can either be on pegs 1 and 2, or on pegs 2 and 3. Sections 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 describe the strap locations and possible settings for each rear card.
