34 Installation Guide
3.2 Hardware Installation
To install the PCI-MPG24 board onto the PCI bus:
1. Remove the computer cover using instructions from the
computer manual.
2. Check that there is an empty PCI (32-bit) slot to accom-
modate the board. If there are no empty slots, remove a
PCI board from the computer to make room for the PCI-
MPG24 board and note down the chosen slot number.
3. Remove the blank metal plate located at the back of the
selected slot (if any). Keep the removed screw to fasten
the PCI-MPG24 board after installation.
4. Carefully position the PCI-MPG24 in the selected PCI
slot as illustrated below. If using a tower computer, orient
the board to accomodate the board slots.
5. Once aligned with an empty slot, press the board firmly
but carefully into the connector.
6. Anchor the board by replacing the screw.
7. Connect your video sources for image acquisition tests.
