1. Turn OFF the computer power before installation, and remove the chassis cover from the
computer. Similarly, ensure the PEX2PCI4 is not powered at this time.
Since both the PC system and the Expansion Box are self-powered, you need to follow the
correct ON/OFF sequence as follows:
Power O Sequence: Power o your PC system, then the Expansion Box
Power On Sequence: Power on the Expansion Box rst, then power on your PC system.
2. Locate an unused PCI Express slot and remove the corresponding slot cover from rear panel
of the computer chassis. Retain the screw (if applicable) used to hold the slot cover in
place.

evenly across the top edge of the expansion card, rmly but gently insert the card into the
slot, ensuring that the card is properly aligned with the rear panel slot.

Express card. Attach the remaining DVI-like connector provided by the cable to the PCI
Expansion Bay DVI port.

cover of the Expansion Box.
