Xtreme/104 Installation Overview
Before you begin, take a moment to ensure your package includes the components shipped with
your product. These components should include:
One Xtreme/104 adapter
One CD containing software and documentation
DB-9 male fan-out cable or DB9 male cables (optional)
If any of these components are missing, contact Connect Tech (see more Contact Details) or
your reseller.
There are three stages to installing your Xtreme/104:
1. Hardware Configuration
Interrupts and Memory selection will be set by the host computer’s BIOS. This section
outlines jumper settings and the ID selection process.
2. Hardware Installation
Installation involves the physical connection of the Xtreme/104-Plus or Xtreme/104
Express within your computer’s PC/104-Plus stack. (Please note that you should
configure any jumper settings, such as ID or electrical interface, if required, prior to
installing the board.)
3. Software/driver installation
Load the appropriate driver for your Operating System, as found on the accompanying
CD. Installation guides are also available on the CD to aid you in this process.
Hardware Installation
Installing Xtreme/104-Plus or Xtreme/104PCI Cards Into Your System
Turn off the power to your system and open it to expose the PC/104 stack (consult your system’s
documentation for more information on this procedure).
Choose an available position in the PCIe/104 or PC/104-Plus stack, and set the ID jumpers or
rotary switch accordingly (see ID Selection). Insert the Xtreme/104-Plus or Xtreme/104 Express
adapter and reassemble the stack.
Hardware Configuration
Interrupts and Memory Address Selection
Xtreme/104 boards are PCI cards, so the host computer’s BIOS will automatically set interrupts
and memory addresses when you reboot after installation.
