MOVING THE MAIN CAPTURE CARD TO SLOT 3
In the DX8108 and DX8116 base DVRs, the main Capture Card is installed in slot 2. To install the
DX8100-ISCI SCSI card, the main Capture Card must be removed from slot 2 and re-installed into slot
3. This step is necessary because the DX8100-ISCI SCSI card must be physically installed in slot 2.
