Operation Manual

This section provides an abbreviated step-by-step procedure to get the experienced
PC user up and running fast. We strongly recommend, however, that even the
seasoned veterans take the time to completely familiarize themselves with this
manual prior to installing and using the VFX1 HEADGEAR system.
STEP 1 Carefully read the SAFETY FIRST section on page vi and the
Electrostatic Precautions section on page 3-1 BEFORE you start.
STEP 2 Confirm that your computer meets the requirements for installation of
the VFX1 HEADGEAR system (use page 2-1 checklist).
STEP 3 Check that your VFX1 HEADGEAR System package is complete and
no items are damaged or missing (use page 2-2 checklist).
STEP 4 Install the VIP Card.
□ Open your computer system - Turn computer off, unplug system
power cord, remove cover. □ Select a free 16-bit adapter slot
closest to your computer's video
card or VESA feature connector (see page 3-2). □ Remove the
selected expansion slot cover. Retain screw to
secure VIP Card later. □ Prepare the VIP Card - The VIP card
factory default I/O address
is 260 (hex). If this address conflicts with another adapter in
your system, change the VIP I/O address jumper to one of the
alternate addresses illustrated on page 3-4.
Attach the supplied VESA Feature Connector Cable to the VIP
card. Make sure that pin 1 of the cable (red stripe) is connected
to pin 1 on the VIP Card connector (marked "1"). □ Insert the
VIP Card in the selected adapter slot. Secure
mounting bracket to computer chassis with screw. □ Attach the
free end of the VESA feature connector cable to your
system's VESA connector, ensuring Pin 1 is aligned with the red
stripe on the cable. □ Close your computer system - Do final
inspection making sure
card is secure and VESA cable is installed correctly. Replace
cover and fasten screws.
