Hardware Installation

1. Shut down the computer, unplug its power cord, and remove the chassis cover.
. Important: Opening the case of your computer may compromise the warranty of your computer. Consult the computer
manufacturer before opening the case to ensure that you adhere to warranty guidelines. In some cases, you may need
to have the DGE-530T installed by your computer manufacturer.
Note:.Write down the serial number and hardware revision (e.g. C1) before installing the adapter. If you contact technical
support, you will need this information.
2. Insert the contact edge of the DGE-530T card into the connector of any available
PCI Bus Master expansion slot. Press the card firmly into the connector such that
the card's contacts are fully seated in the connector.
3. Install the bracket screw that secures the card to the computer chassis.
4. Replace the computer's chassis cover.
5. Connect an Ethernet cable to your adapter and the other end to your network.
6. Reconnect the computer's power cord, and switch the computer on. If the BIOS
section of your computer's boot program is Plug-and-Play compliant, then at
power-up, the BIOS will automatically configure any newly installed DGE-530T
adapter.
Note: Due to a fault in some Plug-and-Play BIOS programs, occasionally a newly installed adapter is assigned an Interrupt Number
which has already been assigned to another device. In such a case, the conflict of the Interrupt Number will cause faults in the behavior
of both devices. Therefore, the user must run the CMOS Setup utility and manually assign a non-conflicting Interrupt Number.
