2. Insert the CardBus Host Interface Card with the MAGMA logo
side up, (gold strip up) into the PC Card slot. Gently push the
card until it is seated firmly.
NOTE
If your computer has two CardBus (or PC Cards) slots, MAGMA
recommends that you install the MAGMA CardBus card into Socket 2.
3. For more information on using CardBus PC Cards, please refer
to your computer’s user manual or system documentation.
Step Five: Recheck Installation
Check your installation before powering up the 1 Slot CardBus PCI
Expansion System for the first time. Although the power supply has an
over voltage protection device built into it, it may not "trip" in time to fully
protect a device that has been improperly connected or whose power
cable has been damaged.
Step Six: Power Sequence
NOTE
If at all possible, plug the power cords from the PCI Expansion System
and your host computer into a shared power strip, preferably one tha
t
has surge and noise suppression circuitry built into it.
NOTE
The 45 Watt power brick is auto-switching, which means the powe
r
brick will automatically adjust to the voltage required for the region you
are in.
Powering Up:
You must apply power to the PCI Expansion System first and then
power up your host computer. This will allow the higher numbered PCI
buses in your hierarchy to be at a stable state at the time that the host
system issues its master power-on bus reset. In systems that perform
automatic PCI bus configuration, this will allow the configuration code to
recognize the PCI bus hierarchy and the attached devices.
