Network Adapter Card Connector
Your DIGITAL PC is network ready. You may add an optional network or other
“feature” card, expanding your systems capabilities. Two cards that are offered are a
network adapter card with a BNC (10Base2) connector and another network card
with an AUI (10Base5) connector. The steps and procedures below show how to
install these cards.
CAUTION
:
Static electricity collects on non-conductors such as
paper, cloth, or plastic. A static discharge can be damaging even
though you often cannot see of feel it. To prevent damage, touch
the metal frame of your workstation to discharge any static
electricity.
Installing the Card
1. Turn off your computer and monitor.
2. Disconnect all external devices, ac power, and monitor power.
3. Remove the outside cover.
4. With a screwdriver or other tool, pop out the panel plug to the open feature
card slot.
5. Orient the network card as shown in the illustration. Insert the top of the
card first, and then pivot the bottom of the card. Insert the screw from the
rear of the chassis, and screw it in, securing the network card to the chassis.
6. Connect the provided cable to the Main Logic Board (MLB) as shown. It
may be necessary to remove the MLB for easier access to the AUI/BNC
connector. Check all connections.
