HP A5150A PCI Dual Port Ultra2 SCSI Host Bus Adapter

Installing the A5150A Adapter
Looking at Adapter Installation
Chapter 226
CAUTION The adapter is highly susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge
during installation and routine maintenance. Do not handle circuit
boards without wearing a wrist strap fastened to a good earth ground or
to the system chassis.
NOTE A 32-bit slot will work; however, full performance requires a 64-bit slot.
Refer to the documentation for your server to confirm the location of the
PCI slots. The A5150A host bus adapter requires a PCI slot that allows
bus master operation.
Step 4. Remove the blank panel aligned with the PCI slot you intend to use. If
the blank panel has a bracket screw, save it for reuse during the
installation.
Before proceeding to the next step, ground yourself to prevent the
possibility of electrostatic discharge damaging the board.
Step 5. Remove the A5150A Dual Channel PCI to Ultra2 SCSI host bus adapter
from its packing and check that it is not damaged.
Step 6. Carefully insert the edge connector J1 (see Figure 1-1 on page 9) of the
host bus adapter into the PCI slot. Make sure the edge connector is
properly engaged before pressing the board into place.
NOTE You may notice that the components on a PCI host adapter face the
opposite way from those on other non-PCI adapter boards you have in
your system. This is correct, and the board is keyed to go in only one way.
Step 7. Thecard’s bracket (with connectors J2 and J3) should fit where the blank
panel was removed. Secure the bracket with the bracket screw from the
blank panel, if there is one.
NOTE For N-Class systems, a screw is not used to secure the card.
