INSTALLING THE ADAPTER
There are two types of 3C905B-TX adapters: the 3C905B-TX
adapter and the 3C905B-TX-NM adapter. They are both
installed in your PC and connected to the network in exactly
the same way.
After you connect the 3C905B-TX adapter to the network,
you connect the Remote Wake-Up cable to the motherboard.
Before you begin, make sure that you have the user guide
and the 3C905B-TX adapter EtherDisk diskettes, and that
your PC meets the requirements described in Chapter 1.
CAUTION: Each adapter is packed in an antistatic container
to protect it during shipment. Before handling the adapter,
touch the metal chassis of your PC. Maintain grounding by
wearing a wrist strap attached to the chassis. Handle the
adapter by its backplate and top edge. Do not touch the
edge connector.
To install the 3C905B-TX adapter in your PC or server and
connect it to the network, follow these steps:
1 Open the shipping container and inspect each item
for damage.
2 Remove all jewelry from your hands and wrists.
Use only insulated or nonconductive tools.
3 Unplug the PC and disconnect all cables.
4 Remove the PC cover.
5 Choose an empty bus mastering PCI slot.
A sample PCI slot is shown in Figure 2-1. If you do not know
how to identify a PCI slot, check your PC documentation or
ask your system administrator. In most PCs, slots 1 and 2 are
bus mastering slots. Use slot 1 for the 3C905B-TX adapter if
possible. If you have a video PCI card, install it in the last slot
(the one farthest from slot 1).
