D-Link DFE-570TX Network Card User Manual


 
6
Installation of a Server Card requires hardware installation first, then
software installation. The Server Card requires a 5-volt (not 3.3-volt)
PCI connection and enough room behind the connector to
accommodate a full-length card. Most computers are equipped with
5-volt PCI connectors and if your computer is not, the Server Card
will not fit into the slot.
Unpack and Inspect
CAUTION
:
Under ordinary circumstances, the Server Card will
not be affected by static charge as may be received
through your body during handling of the unit. In
special circumstances where you may carry an
extraordinarily high static charge, it is good practice
to reduce the charge by touching a ground before
handling the adapter card.
Open the shipping carton and carefully remove all items. In addition
to this User's Guide, ascertain that you have:
One Ethernet Adapter Server Card.
Server Card Software Diskette.
Install the Adapter
1.
Shut down the computer, unplug its power cord, and remove the
chassis cover.
2.
Insert the contact edge of the Server Card into the connector of
any available PCI Bus Master expansion slot. Press the card
firmly into the connector and ascertain that the card’s contacts
are fully seated in the connector.
