Upgrading the DX8100 with the DX8100HDDI

The DX8100HDDI upgrade comes preconfigured from the factory and does not need to be configured during the installation process. However, you need to configure the DX8100 to recognize and work with the newly installed DX8100HDDI.

NOTES:

When installing the DX8100HDDI, make sure it is close to the DX8100. The SCSI cable must easily connect to both units.

Both units are very heavy; two people are needed to lift and carry each unit.
