Installation
Take the following steps to install a PCI board on the riser card:
IMPORTANT: The full-height riser card is equipped with an "insulator (black)" to protect PCI
boards. Do not remove the insulator, and handle it carefully. The insulator is not shown in the
figures in this manual for simplifying the illustrations.
NOTES:
Each riser card supports low-profile or full-height PCI boards. Before installing a PCI board,
check the type of the PCI board.
When installing a PCI board, check that the card connector matches the connector of the riser
card.
1. See the section "Preparing for Installation and Removal" described earlier.
2. Pull out the server from the rack.
3. Remove the top cover.
4. Grasp a handle on the riser module assembly and lift straight up and remove the riser module assembly from the
server.
NOTE: Be very careful not to touch other components.
