5-7 Adding PCI Cards
1. 32-bit PCI slot:
The 370SSR+/370SSE+ has one 32-bit MHz 5V PCI slot available. A riser
card designed specifically for using this slot in a 1U rackmount chassis is
included with your system. This riser card allows an installed PCI card to
sit at a 90 degree angle so it can fit inside the chassis. This riser card
accommodates 32-bit, 33 MHz 5V PCI cards. Figure 5-5 shows the riser
card.
2. PCI card installation:
Before installing a PCI add-on card, locate the PCI riser card (see Step1).
Begin by removing the I/O shield for the PCI slot. Then fully seat the PCI
card into the riser card and screw it into the metal retention rail (shown
in Figure 2-5). Finally, insert the riser card into the PCI slot on the
motherboard, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the
card. (See Figure 5-6 for location.) Finish by using a screw to secure
the top of the card shield to the chassis. The I/O shield protects the
motherboard and its components from EMI and aid in proper ventilation, so
make sure there is always a shield covering the slot.
