5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
4.3 Procedure for Hardware Installation
CAUTION!
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is static-sensitive. Take the same
precautions you would with any static-sensitive device. One such
precaution is being aware that some elements of your work
environment, such as carpeting, floor mats, dry air from winter heating,
etc., can cause static buildup. To prevent a static discharge, touch a
grounded surface, other than the PC’s chassis, before handling the
Card. Do not touch any components on the Card’s surface, especially
the microprocessor chips; handle the Card by the edges only.
Follow these instructions to install the 5250 Remote Emulator Card in your
PC:
1. Turn OFF and unplug the PC and all devices attached to it.
CAUTION!
Make sure that the PC is OFF and its power supply is unplugged and (if
possible) its power cord removed before you begin installing the Card
or connecting any of its cables. Don’t turn the PC back ON until you
have completely finished installing the Card and connecting all of its
cables.
WARNUNG!
Vergewisseren Sie sich, dass die PC ausgeschaltet und die
Netzzuleitung entfernt ist bevor irgendwelche Kabel angeschlossen
werden. Schalten Sie Gerät nicht wieder ein bevor alle Kabel
angeschlossen sind. Zur vollständigen Trennung vom Netz ist der
Netzstecker zu ziehen.
2. Disconnect the PC from its monitor. If the monitor is sitting on top of
the PC’s case, lift the monitor off and set it aside.
3. Follow the instructions in the PC’s manual for removing the PC’s
cover. Set the cover aside and save the screws for reassembly.
4. Locate an empty expansion slot. Using a screwdriver (or, if necessary,
a socket wrench), remove the slot’s cover. Keep the slot cover’s screw
close by.
5. Touch a grounded surface such as the PC’s chassis to dissipate any
static charge you might have built up, then carefully remove the
5250 Remote Emulator Card from its anti-static bag.
