Before You Begin
Basic Installation
After installing the IP8000 into any available PCI slot on the server’s
mainboard, refer to the installation diagram below (the diagram numbers
correspond to the step numbers), and do the following:
1. Plug the local monitor cable into the IP8000's video port.
2. Plug the local keyboard and mouse into the server’s keyboard and mouse
ports.
Note: The installation diagram depicts a PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard. If you
use USB mice and keyboards, plug them into USB ports.
1. Make sure that the power to any device that you connect to the
installation has been turned off. You must unplug the power
cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On
function.
2. Avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Keep your IP8000 card in
its antistatic bag until it is ready to be installed. Avoid contact
with any component or connector on any adapter card, printed
circuit board, or memory module. Handle these components by
the mounting bracket.
3. Perform all unpacking and installation procedures on a ground
connected antistatic mat. Wear an antistatic wristband grounded
at the same point as the antistatic mat. You can also use a sheet
of conductive aluminum foil grounded through a one megaohm
resistor instead of the antistatic mat. Similarly, a strip of
conductive aluminum foil wrapped around the wrist and
grounded through a one megaohm resistor serves the same
purpose as a wristband.
