The PCLTA-21 and the PCC-10 network interface cards allow you to connect a
computer or a laptop directly to the physical network. See the Network Interfaces
section for descriptions of these network interfaces. Refer to the PCLTA-21PCI

Installing the PCLTA-21PCI and PCC-10 Network Interface Cards
To install the PCLTA-21PCI and PCC-10 network interface cards on a computer
running the Microsoft® Windows® 2000 or Windows XP® Operating System
(OS):
1. Close any programs running on your computer.
2. Insert the PCLTA-21PCI or PCC-10 installation CD into your computer and
browse to the folder containing the installation programs.
3. Double-click the setup program for the configuration that corresponds to your
version of the Windows OS.
4. Follow the instructions of the installation wizard.
Note: We recommend keeping the default settings for file location,
directories, and options.
Note: Select No when the setup program asks if you want to add a PCCLON1
and a PCCLON2 device entry in your Disk Operating System (DOS)
CONGFIG.SYS file.
5. Turn off your computer when the software installation is complete.
6. Install the PCLTA-21PCI or PCC-10 card into your computer.
7. Restart your computer. The Windows OS recognizes the card and completes
the installation.
8. Prior to connecting to a network, configure the network interface. See the
Configuring the PCLTA-21PCI and PCC-10 Network Interface Cards section.
IMPORTANT: The PCLTA-21PCI and PCC-10 software must be installed
prior to physical installation of the card into the computer. If you install the card
before installing the software, the card may become unusable until you uninstall
the card and software and reinstall them in the proper manner.
