Installation
Install a PCI card to the riser card unit in the following procedure.
1. See steps 1 to 6 in Chapter 2 (1.2 Overview of Installation and Removal) for preparations.
2. Remove one screw from the PCI riser card
unit and remove the blank cover.
3. Install a PCI card to the PCI riser card unit.
Position the terminal part of the PCI card to
the PCI riser card slot and insert it.
4. Secure the PCI card with the screw you removed in step 4.
Important
When installing a PCI card, make sure the connector of the card fits the
connector of the riser card.
Note
Check the card type (Low Profile or Full Height) which respective riser card
supports and the type of PCI card to be installed.
When installing an FBU, see Chapter 2 (1.12 Flash Backup Unit for RAID
Controller).
Note
Keep the removed blank cover for future use.
Important
Do not touch the terminal part of riser card or PCI card and the signal pins of
electric parts installed on the board. Installing boards with dirt or oil can
cause malfunction.
Note
Make sure that the edge of a PCI card bracket is seated into the fixed slot of the
PCI riser card unit.
Depending on type of PCI cards, the terminal part of the PCI card may be too
large to fit in the connector.
If you have trouble installing the card, remove the card once and try again. If you
apply excessive pressure on the card, a PCI card or riser card might break.
