ADAPTER HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Follow Instructions outlined in the indicated personal computer user’s guide for installing PCI Bus add- in cards into a PCI slot that supports bus mastering.

CAUTION: Heed the warnings in the PC user ‘s guide in regard to proper protection against static discharge. Always hold the adapter by the metal bracket. Always be properly grounded when handling an adapter. Since adapters are designed with CMOS ICs and are particularly sensitive to static discharge. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the adapter and subsequent network failure.

MAGIC PACKET™ SET UP (optional)

NOTE: The adapter Magic Packet is patented technology from AMD Corporation which works only on a PC that supports the Wakeup On LAN feature (via Magic Packet) through a 3-pin connector with +5.0V standby.

CAUTION: Do not connect the AC cable to the PC until both the NIC and the Magic Packet are installed because the +5.0V standby power is up as soon as the AC cable is plugged into the PC.

1.Refer to PC user ‘s guide to identify the PC “Wakeup” on LAN connector. Connect Magic Packet 3-pin flat ribbon cable between connector J2 on the NIC and +5.0V standby connector on the PC.

2.Connect the AC power cable to the PC.

3.Power the PC.

4.Follow the PC user ‘s guide to change the ıIOS setup:

Under “POWER” (or equivalent) menu, enable Power Management

Under “SYSTEM BOOT” (or equivalent) menu, enable ON LAN and ON PME.

5.Save BIOS changes and exit.
